My CKC Mesa 2013 Scrapbooking Haul!

Yippee! I had so much fun shopping at the convention on Friday! I was exhausted when I got home!
The convention was a lot smaller than last year. I noticed a lot of the regular vendors were not there and it seemed the ones that were there had less stock of supplies. It was much harder to find a great deal. I also could not find any booths that sold liquid pearls or alcohol inks. Only one booth was selling Stickles! How can that be?? So anyways I still had a great time, I absolutely plan on returning next year!

The funniest shirt I saw a lady wearing and totally wanted it:

It is all fun and games until someone losses an eyelet!!

HEHE!! So funny!!

Here are some photos and a quick haul video!

Time to get organized! Quick Tip Tuesday!

As part of the Creative Cutter Room design team I would like to share this quick tip with you!

I don't have a lot of time to craft between work, family and household chores, so to make my crafting time more productive I first spent my time getting organized!

I decided it would be easier to sort my supplies by theme and holiday!

Here are some examples of how I sorted:

These three drawers hold:

baby, school and travel

This larger bin holds Halloween and Fall

This 12X12 Sleeve holds Memorial Day and the 4th of July

Now when I craft I can easily pull out the bin I need and have all the supplies right on hand! This has been saving me so much time! Instead of looking for the stickers, and stamps I know I have some where I can get right to creating!

I also decided to tackle my dreaded ribbon! It took about 2 hours but it is done and now the ribbon is usable! and all this ribbon...

Fit into this!

I hope you enjoyed my quick tips!
