Washi for the College Man

My son had to admit that Washi could be useful:

Maui Stamper Washi Tape Custom Cables The black diagonal Washi from the Epic Day This n That suite was the only one he considered acceptable, but he agreed that identifying his cables made sense.

One of a Kind

In case you were wondering, I’m pretty sure God broke the mold when I was born.  One of my little character quirks is that I like things to be Just So.

Maui Stamper This n That One of a KindAs a result, I’ve spent WEEKS fiddling around with my first This ‘n That journal.  I finally settled on the “One of a Kind” theme, but kept going around and around with colors, papers and embellishments.  Last weekend, while the stampers were working on their Manly Cards, it finally clicked in place for me.  I’m not going to list every product I used on this, but many of them came from the April This ‘n That bundle and will be available in the 2013-2014 Annual catalog.

Maui Stamper This n That One of a KindLove that Epic Day This ‘n That DSP.  Every side is awesome.  And I also love the little dots stamp that came with My Paper Pumpkin Welcome kit.  It just stays on my craft table.  It goes on everything!

Maui Stamper This n That One of a KindWashi tape is my new favorite embellishment.  You can just tear it off.  It’s kinda like a sticky note, so you can peel it off and re-position it.  And I am using it for everything!  I wrapped some around my iPhone charger so my son (who will be home from college TOMORROW) will know it is mine.

Now to fill the pages….

Epic Day Bag in a Box

The Epic Day This ‘n That Designer Series paper has my name written all over it.  I’m not going to tell you how many This ‘n That bundles I bought, but I will tell you that today is the LAST day to get them at 15% off.  Epic colors, epic designs – you can’t go wrong with this paper.

Hostess club made little Bag-in-a-Box packages:

Maui Stamper This N That Bag in a BoxWe added flags, and the hot air balloon from You’re Amazing.  We used the new little round scallop punch and an image from A Round Array, also available as a bundle (#133899, $23.95) through May 30.  You could add all sorts of goodies to customize this idea – and isn’t that the point?

This ‘n That Epic Day Bundle includes the Epic Day dsp, Epic Day This ‘n That journal, This ‘n That Epic Day Washi Tape (OH BE STILL MY HEART), Remember This ‘n That Rotary stamp (you NEED this) and This ‘n That Epic Day This n That Designer Stickers.  (These are not your grandmother’s stickers, either.)  All five elements are available separately at my Online Store, but hurry over today and order them together as a bundle (#133350) for $32.08 – you’ll be saving 15%.  You’ll be glad you did.
