{ Deflecto Caddy Organizer from Scrapbook.com }

Scrapbook.com provided me with Deflecto Caddy Organizer and Deflecto Stack 'n Go - Caddy Wheel Base. The opinions are my own. Affiliate links are used in this post.

I have been trying to figure out a new way of storing my washi. It used to live in a drawer until I had too many and they wouldn’t all fit. Then I moved them to a clear plastic bin. They were somewhat organized, but the bin was getting pretty heavy. When Caddy organizer arrived, I knew exactly how I was going to use it.

The caddy is clear so I can see where everything is.

The containers come in different sizes and are perfect for different size of supplies.

All of the containers are removable, which allows them to move around the table or the house without carrying the entire caddy.

Each caddy stacks on top of each other neatly and locks in place.

{ Case File No. 257 with Therm O Web }

I participated in a fun little challenge over at CSI challenge blog. I used Simple Stories Hello Summer Collection.  Here is my layout.

Summer chillin by Daniela Dobson

This layout was created for CSI Case File No. 257. This is how I solved the Case File: I used pops of yellow from the inspiration photo, I was inspired by the clouds and added my own die cut clouds with Deco Foil polka dots.I added various circle elements and flowers. I documented something about summer.

{ Impression Obsession DT challenge – Happy Colors! }

Hello and welcome to the our Impression Obsession challenge – Happy Colors!

Here is my card.

Hello friend by Daniela Dobson

For this card I decided to try ink blocking using my Purple Tape from Therm O Web. I am so excited about how this turned out. I was looking through a magazine where I saw an example of this. Then I searched Pinterest for more examples. I have seen this done in cardmaking, but I have never tried it before.

I used three of my favorite colors: yellow, blue and pink. I blocked yellow at the top and bottom, adding Large Dots to the bottom. I stamped, watercolored and fussy cut the flowers from Floral Heart Set. I used 3D foam squares to add dimension. I layered die cut butterfly and heart under the flowers. I colored white cardstock with ink to match the colors in the card.

{ Technique Tuesday July 2018 Release Day }

Hello and welcome to our Release Day. Make sure you check out the Technique Tuesday blog for product features and links to DT blogs for inspiration.

Today I created a card using Classy Butterflies Crafting Dies and for the sentiment I used Bravo Stamp Set.

Happy birthday by Daniela Dobson

I used this fun patterned paper for the background. I stacked two different patterned papers under the butterfly die. I left the black, bottom piece intact and only punched out the pieces from the top patterned paper die cut. I used Zots to layer the two butterflies and then 3D foam squares for the dimension. I layered several pieces of paper, tags and washi and stamped the sentiment in black ink.
