New Years Resolution



I usually never make New Years resolutions, because let's face it... I never stick to them lol.
But, this year I have decided and am determined that I am going to redo my craft room, paint organize and get it functional and pretty.

So with a color scheme in mind ....
sushi tones
I decided to start on some of my organizing.. I'm thinking of painting the walls the light grey..furniture is gonna be black and then I'm wanting to accessorize with the different pinks..
I found this little jewel at Hobby Lobby marked down on clearance for a couple bucks and wanted to use it to put all my pretty Pinque Peacock items. 
I remembered to take a "before pic" well almost ...lol. I got it about 1/8 of the way in and remembered.


All finished ;) and the bottom pic is with the lid up so you can see 
All the cute goodness stored inside!!

 I found some paper I liked at Michaels and used it.
It's not perfect and I may change the ribbon I have around the inside edge.. but otherwise I am pretty pleased with it. I also added a little bit of Tim Holtz distress ink along the edges.
See all the beautiful Pinque  Peacock goodies :)   Layered Garden Beauties, Stick Pins, Buttons , Splendid Swirls and some beads from the Bead Buffet. Awesome Goodness!!


Thanks for stopping  by to look at my project and
Have a Great Day!!

Holiday tag

Hi everyone, Robin here to day with a holiday tag to share with you.  Can you believe it is just 18 days until Christmas!?  My goodness has this year flown by or what?

To try and get some of my stuff done early...which by the way is rare for me lol. I decided to make a gift tag to add to my presents, and use some of my pretty Peacock stuff to dress it up hehe.

Isn't that snowman layered flower just too cute! If you would like to get some of this cutie patootie goodness, then head on over to the peacock shop. Jessica will whip you up anything your hear desires. She will work with you on custom orders, which I think is awesome!!


I took my colored cardstock and cut out the tag from a file at the Silhouette store. Then I printed the sentiment tag (another file from the Sil store :)  and pop dotted it onto the larger one. To finish it off I added some cute twine and that beautiful crinkle ribbon from 3 Girl Jam. As a finishing touch I added that sweet snowman flower and there you have it folks a tag ready to be added to a present.

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a great day!

RCS challenge # 58 "The Nutcracker"

Hello everyone! I hope you are having a happy Sunday :)

I am preparing my Thanksgiving meal for my family. I have to work all day on Thanksgiving so I decided that we could all get together today. This way we can have our meal and enjoy everyone's company and being together. Which is what Thanksgiving is all about to me. Being thankful for all the wonderful family and friends in my life that make me smile and laugh :)

For our challenge at RCS today the wonderful Connie is hosting and she has picked "The Nutcracker" as our inspirational movie. To enter the challenge just create a project with ribbons and lace.

I am awful about last minute things and with Christmas approaching. I decided to make up some cards  that I can add a gift card to. I have quite a few people that I give them to, and if I can at least get that much done. Then I will be ahead of the game LOL.  So, this is one that I came up with...
 
I got the beautiful lace from Scrapadabadoo.com they are wonderful to order from. I also added some 3 Girl Jam crinkle ribbon from 3girljam.com the flower and beautiful angel stick pin is from Pinque Peacock. The paper and stamp are from Michaels :)
 
 
Our sponsor for this challenge is
 
 
They are going to give the lucky winner 3 digis of their choice :)
 
 
Now it's your turn to show us what you can do with ribbons and lace. Hop on over to the RCS challenge blog and check out all the inspiration from the rest of the design team and enter your project.
 
 
Have a great day my friends!!

Santa baby

      Hi to all my wonderful bloggy friends! I'm posting today for Pinque Peacock and showcasing one of my favorite items in her shop!

      I've got a Christmas gift card to show you today :) I know....it's not even Thanksgiving yet and while I don't like rushing the holidays. I know how I am hehe.  Always last minute!! Sooo , I thought since I usually have quite a few people I give gift cards to. I would go ahead and get a few made.

     I bought this super cute stamp and decided to use some of my  3 Girl Jam and my favorite burlap button from the Pinque Peacock shop to spruce up my gift card holder.

 
Here is the inside :)

 
Thanks for stopping by and if you would like to have some Pinque goodies for yourself to add that super cute touch to your projects. Just hop on over to the Pinque Peacock shop and get yours today :)
 
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a great day:)
