ScrapHole - What's In A Name?

How did the name Scraphole come to be? I was trying to come up with a name for my creative space and I was using my hubby as a sounding board. For days I would throw idea's out there but none seemed to stick. Finally my hubby came up with The Scraphole. His reasoning? Every time I go near my scraproom it sucks me in and I'm never heard from again. So, hence The Scraphole. Please grab yourself a handful of chocolate and your favorite beverage and join me for a spat.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You Cards...

I had a very nice Christmas this year and received wonderful gifts from friends and clients. I didn't want to send out plain generic thank you cards so I made my own. I have used this design before and love that it is easy and quick yet pretty. In total I made 16 cards and the most time I spent was waiting for the craft ink to dry.

I used one of the flourish stamps from the Artsy Elements stamp set by The Angel Company. Stamped the image using white craft ink on black cardstock and added different flowers. I didn't want to use brads so I stickled the center of each flower instead. A bit of ribbon and presto done!
