Frosted Designs makes me want to do some Jitterbuggin too!

Settle in. I'm in my usual prattle-on-and-on mode. 

Earth day is coming and Frosted Designs Fabulous Friday Challenge is all about re-using or re-purposing things in the home. I started my project this week but was so glad when this challenge was posted, as it re-motivated me to finish it!

Now my computer is telling me that "re-motivated" is NOT a word, but in the interest of scrappers worldwide... I think we should add it to the scrap lingo dictionary!!!! WHO's WITH ME??? ... too often we just need a little nudge to get through the tough part of a project.  I am officially re-purposing that word! Re-motivate me!

Earlier this week I was re-using the all forgotten CD cases as a new storage solution for my Peachy Keen Stamps... So this Frosted Designs challenge re-motivated me to finish the last few sets as a way of re-using my empty CD cases and my space effectively.

The above picture is also my entry for Jitterbuggin Bloom Where You Are Planted Challenge! This week they have a sketch challenge to add a cricut flower and some purple and pink!

 

 I even added a bit of yellow pollen for their blushy cheeks!

I love seeing what the stamp looks like all chalked up, it's much easier to match to a picture when you are trying to visualise the stamp.  Inside view:

The photo below shows that I HAD magazines above my head... USELESS!!!

I'm not a see-and-copy kind of scrapper... I usually think outside the box that is outside another box!!! So magazines can go.

Not ONLY did I re-motivate myself to re-purpose my CD cases, I re-motivated myself to alter my re-purposed scrap table that I altered. It was from a computer desk from Office Works but I turned it into Scraplerium Scraptopia. (Yes, I made those words up, too). 

I stuck some old CD Holder Thingys in - 

(Please note: that is not the technical term).

And now I have my Peachies right where I can grab them!

PLUS - I also have my i-rock and watercolours underneath too now. Every spare millimetre accounted for. That's what I like!

SCRAPTOPIA!!!! 

*such a beautiful sight*

Thanks so much Frosted Designs for the nudge I needed to get it done and also re-purpose my magazine section to a MUCH more user friendly system. 

Thanks also to Jitterbuggin for the cute sketch and a chance to use some pink and purple! Too many boys in my house!
