Well, after suffering without power this morning for a couple of hours, I got a lovely email from scrapbook.com letting me know there's new yummy goodies in the superstore- the ones that caught my eye in particular are Carta Bella and Simple Stories. If you like these products too, go and check out the superstore! You'll find it at www.scrapbook.com! Now I need to make some time today to update my wish list heh heh.
I've been seeing crafting with paper towel rolls all over Pinterest lately, and now the blogging world is starting to jump on the bandwagon. I have to admit, some of it looks pretty darn cool! One of these days, I'm going to try stamping with toilet paper rolls (which is only one of the many uses/techniques I've seen using toilet paper rolls). Look here at these neat crafts!
Oh my, who wouldn't love the chance to win some fabulous goodies?! Especially when its from one of your favorite manufacturing companies?! I wouldn't. Not.at.all. That's only why I submitted my own entry and have my fingers and eyes and toes crossed that I win some yummy treats. You should, too. Jillibean is up with a giveaway and some gorgeous layouts today.
Lacking mojo today? Looking for something to help you scrap outside the box? Scarlett over at Scarlett's Scrapoirs has a new sketch up by Skissedella. I've pinned it to my To Scraplift board. You should check it out, too!
Or, maybe you're in a rut working on a particular layout, and you've run out of ideas or nothing is tickling your fancy. Check out these tips Autumn Baldwin shares on the Creating Keepsakes blog today.
Yesterday was pretty quiet on the What's Up homefront. Today might be the same. And, its all probably due to the holiday weekend. Which, is fine. I hope you all have a tremendous holiday weekend, and I'll catch up with you again on Monday!

One other little tidbit I forgot to mention: the new Where you Create post is up at www.canadianscrapbooker.ca. Go have a look! I plan to!

I've had a clear storage box in my possession for quite some time. I used it up until recently to store some of my patterned paper in, but have recently retired it, looking to use it someday in another way. You may find you like using them to store your paper, though. FaveCrafts is having a giveaway; two very lucky people could win these boxes- they come in a variety of colors and are durable and a great way to store a couple hundred sheets worth of paper, or your projects on the go. Go check them out!
Speaking of giveaways, Creating Keepsakes also has a giveaway. Unfortunately, for those of us that live outside the States, we are not eligible to win the main giveaway, which is a fabulous CM border system and one of Simple Stories' collections. If your name is selected and you're a Canadian like me, or from another country, you'll receive a one year subscription to Creating Keepsakes magazine instead. How does that sound?! I wouldn't mind that!!
My friend Heather found a fabulous sketch that I would love to try out, too! She's already used it to make a layout. You should check it out! Heather's stuff is amazing- always is!
And, speaking of talented, Juliana's faux stained glass tutorial is flippin' amazing! There are a few essentials you'll need for this tutorial- such as alcohol inks (which I don't have--yet!!) and a cuttlebug. Otherwise, you're set to go! Seriously check it out. Its beautiful, and something I would surely love to try out one day!!
That's it for this Good Friday!
I'll skip the What's Up posts this weekend due to the holiday, but I'll be back at it again Tuesday morning!
Enjoy your Easter and the beautiful weather we'll hopefully be having this weekend!
