Now....to the untrained eye it would seem as though nothing has happened. However, if you look very closely in the upper right hand corner you will see that not only did I shuffle a bunch of ribbons in a pile....but I found a pair of scissors that has been missing for weeks. Anytime I find lost items, it's a successful cleaning expedition no matter how little gets put away.
Ok....I need to get kits ready for this class at Paper Tales this Saturday.......
I'm using the new Crate paper for this minibook....
Plus some reproductions of vintage wall paper....
Plus mixing it up with other papers I had on hand....
After I'm done with it for class, I'm giving it to a friend....she doesn't know.
Ok.....I need to pick up a couple of boys from school....Talk to you later! Karin
Of course I noticed the one spot where you'd moved some ribbon and found your scissors!! It was so obvious!! rofl!!! OMG...this room looks like MY room...and now I feel so much better that I share something else in common with Ms. Creative Chaos herself!!!
Have a wonderful weekend!! xo

Haha! No, I thought it looked the same! I have the same situation in my living room. Company is coming tomorrow. My plan is to bring in a large tub and put everything in it.
That is beautiful, Karin. You put all of it together so well! Extra nice job!
