I have been trying to get organized with my cropping stuff. When the store closed for the summer I had to take all my stuff home and find a spot for it. And it wasn’t that easy. There is stuff in our bedroom, the living room and our hallway. So I have been trying to condense and control it to just one location. When the store reopened in our new location I did move some of it back, but there is still a ton left. One of the biggest things is the 5 years of magazines that I have been collecting. So I decided to create an idea book. (one of my customers does this and I always thought it was a great idea) So I had an old notebook that I wasn’t using and I began going thru the magazines and removing any idea or technique that I liked or thought I would like to try and then pasted them on the pages of my note-book, before I know it the magazine collection was gone and in the recycle bin and what was left was a great little idea book. Well one of the ideas was this snowman picture in a black frame. I believe that they had patterns for the snowman, but you know me and my Quickutz I just couldn’t pass up an oppurtunity to use them. And this is what I came up with.
It’s a 12×12 and then I put it in a black frame that I drilled 2 holes in and ran ribbon thru to hang it. I love it and can’t wait to hang it up and use it.
