PaperCrafter's Corner #75 & Moxie Fab World

Wow!  Seventy five challenges.  I haven't done all of them....but, I've done a quite a few.  Always GREAT Inspiration. 

And, here's this week's inspiration:

I love all the TREES! 

There is a Stampin Up set called 'Lovely as a Tree" that will eventually (hopefully) become part of my collection.  Until then I have in Inkadinkadoo stamp that also features trees.  I used it and a Unity stamp to create my card. 

I stamped the trees with StazOn then used watercolors for the background.  Once dry I added color to the trees by dotting with Sharpies.  I believe the technique is called pointillism. 

On the PCC blog Stephanie has a running series of posts about ORGANIZATION.  Something we all need. I made an organizer a while ago from a cardboard box and patterned paper. 

It holds new washi, scissors, black ink, stickers, adhesives,all sorts of things.  I have paper scraps with samples of the washi tape I keep stored in a box.  I need to do something similar for my embossing folders. 

Someone, I can't remember who, came up with the brilliant idea of using magnetic vent covers for holding metal dies.  You can find them in Lowes & Home Depot.  They're made by Frost King and sold in packs of 3-8x15 sheets.
