From Your Heart to Ours

Thanks to everyone who played along with our color challenge last week - there were so many wonderful entries!!! Rmember to keep playing along all month until the last Saturday of the month to increase your chances of winning one of the two fabulous prizes being offered by our sponsors: Haley Dyer of The Inky Scrapper and Susan Winter of Winter Hearts Paper Arts.

Today we are starting a new challenge that is a lot different than the ones we have had before. We call this From Your Heart to Ours because we are going to ask you to share something that isn't artwork. This is a new feature that will pop up in our challenges every other month so you will find a From Your Heart to Ours challenge 6 times a year.

To start these challenges, we would like to ask you to share something on the theme of Organization. Maybe you are really proud of your stamping space and want to share the room with us. Or maybe, in all of your "creative disorganization" you have a fabulous way to store paper, or ink, or stamps. Whatever it may be, we challenge you to share with us. From Your Heart to Ours.

Here is a peek at what the Design Team is sharing - be sure to click on their name and follow to their blog to read all about their organization (and let me say, this challenge threw the DT for a loop as they all scurried to clean up their spaces.  LOL  You do not have to over-do this challenge - just think of a good organization idea that you can share with us. There is sure to be someone who will benefit from your knowledge and information)!









Now it's your turn. Let's see what kind of organization ideas you have that will inspire us all! Post photos or a description and then link your post here. Have fun - we can't wait to see what you come up with!

  2. What a timely challenge! I've noticed lots of cries for help on the bulletin boards...I guess the New Year's Resolutions are still getting some attention! I think this challenge will be very helpful for many people.

  8. just started as a consultant with Close To My Heart at the end of September 2010. Previous to CTMH I had not EVER done scrapbooking or cardmaking, always wanted to but didn't think I was "creative" enough. Well, that has changed and I love what I do. Since I am basically brand new to CTMH I haven't collected a whole lot of product and I don't have a room where I am "set up". So, I transformed the coat closet into my storage area until I do have more product and a specified place to create, (right now it is the kitchen table). So, here is my closet. I have used a couple of old boxes to separate papers and store supplies. I also utilized a couple of baskets for embellishments etc...not much yet, but OH you wait!

  9. Great challenge! I had been putting off doing this but this challenge was just the incentive I needed to get my butt in gear to clean it up so it's presentable and take the photos.

  14. Just finished setting up my scrap area in the garage. Still a few finishing touches needed but for the most part, it's done. Will have to work in it awhile to see if it works for me.

  23. I was drooling as I looked at all the gorgeous craft spaces out there. Even though my little space isn't "pretty" or spacious, I thought I'd share for those that might be a bit afraid to share their humble spaces. We just need to make the most of what space we do have and enjoy the creating process!
