Lan's Happy Space!

Hello there! Want a glimpse of where I hideout and create? My husband and I recently converted the corner of our basement, which previously was used as a storage/utility area into my new scrap room/office and I just love this room! The other side of the room has two desk computers where the kids can hang out and play their Nick Jr games.

Right above my desk are pretty floating tissue paper flowers in a fun colorful combo of pink/red/and yellow.

I used my Cricut and vinyl to cut out the quote. :)



My papers are stored alphabetically by manufacturer in my recycled priority boxes that I receive the TSR kits in.


On my desk are my most used and go to tools. My Fruit stand has been turned into a Border Punch Caddy.


Ribbons are stored by color in Hobby Lobby jars. And Baskets hold other punches, stamps, Cricut cartridges, etc.

And I had to show you my hand sewn grommet curtains...isn't it lovely? It's covering a fake window, behind it is all the waterpipes running throughout the house.

I love looking for fun little tubs to organize buttons, threads, and doo dads. The bowls and clear red containers were from Target's $1 dollar spot!

Hope you've enjoyed a tour of my scrap space.

THIS WEEK'S SCRAPROOM STEAL: (June 13-19)

THIS WEEK'S SCRAPROOM STEAL:
DAISY BUCKET "WISHING YOU A BEAUTIFUL DAY" STAMP SET: $3.00

This week's Steal is an acrylic stamp from Daisy Bucket Designs, measuring 4"x 2" and featuring the embellished greeting, "wishing you a Beautiful Day." I LOVE this greeting for a card - it works for occasions and non-occasions alike, and the little dots and flowers that surround the greeting are just begging to have some "BLING" added to them to really make the message pop!

(Shipping for NON-Club Members will be $1.99./TSR Members can elect to have this item shipped with your next club shipment.)

You can purchase this week's Steal through our shopping cart by clicking on the following link: THIS WEEK'S SCRAPROOM STEAL. Or, if you are currently a TSR member, then you can e-mail us with your order at admin@scrap-room.com. :)

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:

Each Monday morning between 7:00 and 9:00 a.m., we'll post a new super-saver-scrappin' deal that we're calling SCRAPROOM STEALS! Quantities on these steals are very limited, and when they're gone, they're gone.

ScrapRoom Steals are offered for one week only or until they're gone!

ScrapRoom Steals are amazing Scrappin' Deals, with everything being discounted at least 40%-90% off of retail prices.

Since you know we love kits, most ScrapRoom Steals will consist of items bundled together for greater savings (and more fun)!

ScrapRoom Steals Shipping Policy:

ScrapRoom Kit Club MEMBERS can elect to have their ScrapRoom Steals shipped along with their next monthly shipment by selecting the "MEMBER ONLY" option when checking out. If shipped with a regular monthly kit club shipment, there will be no additional shipping charges, although the ScrapRoom Steal itself will be charged to the Member's credit card at the time of the purchase.

Customers who are NOT ScrapRoom Kit Club members are still eligible to purchase the Weekly Steals. The indicated shipping charge will be added to the total before the credit card is processed, and the item will ship out within 2-3 business days.

Hello my scrappy friends! Glad you've stopped by today because I have a quick and easy tutorial for you. We'll be making the bow on this card from the June gallery.

Are you ready? Ok. Here we go.

Step One: Cut a 1" x 5" strip of double-sided patterned paper. Notch both ends of the strip and cut in half.

Step Two: Add notched strips to your project.

Step Three: Cut a 1" x 8" strip of paper and create a loop.

Step Four: Place a glue dot on the insdie and press together to create a figure eight.

Step Five: Use a scrap of 1" x 2" paper from one of previous strips and add it to the center of figure eight with reverse pattern showing. Wrap around the back and adhere.

Step Six: Attach to your project and embellish.

Hope you've enjoyed this easy tutorial. If you create a bow for your projects, please share it with us on our Facebook page. We'll stop by to ooohhh!!! and ahhhh!!! over it and leave you some love. Have a great day!
