<br />
First I'd like to apologize to everyone for practically dropping off the face of the internet for two years. After my brother was born two summers ago, I became interested in switching from a "home-schooler" to a "public-schooler". I entered public school for the first time that fall, and became super busy with homework (I had never had any before, and it took some getting used to), friends (I now had more then ever before), and my new little brother. The time I set aside for paper crafting decreased as I explored some of my other interests, such as the cross country team (which I don't know what I would do without), physics, french, and church youth group.<br />
<br />
To make a long story (sort of) short, I am now a junior in high school, a member of the highest team in my Irish Dance company, searching for colleges that offer meteorology majors (and french minors), still having fun with my family and friends, excited for summer (who isn't?!), and finally ready to come back from this super long break from crafting.<br />
<br />
I have a couple of ideas for projects and videos, but I would greatly value any feedback and ideas that you have to offer. I will start posting new content very shortly, so make sure to check back soon!<br />

<br />
It has been really nice outside lately, and I just started a garden, so I haven't been scraping as much. I have been working on an album for my aunt who's having a baby soon, though. I'll be sure to post some pics of it when I'm done. :)<br />
<br />
Anyway, here's the thank you card for this week. I got the inspiration from the fall-winter 2008 Stampin Up! catalog (p. 115). Here's that card:<br />

<br />
Here's a card I made yesterday. I used the new <a href="http://www.provocraft.com/products/detail.php?cl=cuttlebug&scl=embossing&cat=&item=37-1172">Cuttlebug Border Frills</a> embossing folder for the bottom edge. I love the effect!<br />

I decided to completely redesign by blog. I wasn't too fond of all the dark colors and busyness. I wanted to go with something more open and simple. You can find everything so much quicker. I especially like how the sides of my videos aren't cut off by the narrow space anymore. I also added a "Contact Me" button you can click on to send me private messages. And as you might have noticed, I "discarded" the playlist. It was getting too annoying and distracting.<br /><br />If you have any suggestions on how I can further improve my blog, make sure to tell me!Katiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07202225989106796872noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035490815951539973.post-59608697976859916062010-04-12T21:06:00.020-05:002010-04-20T12:13:34.019-05:00New Challenge Series - Same Sketch, Different LookHi guys!<br />
<br />
<div><div>I'm starting a new challenge series on my blog called Same Sketch, Different Look (or SSDL). Here's how it works:</div><br />
<div>Every month I'll draw a new sketch and make two cards or scrapbook pages that correspond with it. </div><br />
<div>You make a project using the same sketch. </div><br />
<div>Upload it to a blog or web site, and post the link in the comments. </div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>On the last of the month, I will choose a winner using Random.org. </div><br />
<div>The winning project will be featured on my blog. :)</div><br />
<div>So here's the sketch for this month:</div><br />
<div><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5459444456773820418" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1zSQ-58eqgzznl9Wz-Bf_0npcEMF_AabkngYSMUg41T5SNP8aUZZFEFgJBxoXJDbYjuZ8ZEl5ZZ7M_otVwXCGSVGZQRMzAohNY5xhbgslxS5cKtNANOxUFjhQ36Bits20cv4XiRKyX0E/s320/004.JPG" style="cursor: hand; display: block; height: 240px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 320px;" /></div><br />

I thought this might be helpful for beginning crafters, and people who are looking for some recommended tools. :)<br /><br /><br />1. Fiskars 12 x12 Self Healing Cutting Mat. This mat is always on my crafting table. I've had it for over a year, and I don't think I'll ever have to get a new one.<br /><br /><br />2. Cricut Paper Trimmer. I really like this trimmer because it's light weight, small, and inexpensive. I have cut every piece of paper since I started crafting with this trimmer. (I'll have a video about it soon)<br /><br /><br />3. Martha Stewart Bone Folder. This I also got when I first started crafting. I like it because you can use both ends for scoring.<br /><br /><br />4. Tombo Mono Permanent Adhesive. This is the best tape runner I've found, and it works really well. It's pretty inexpensive too.<br /><br /><br />5. Making Memories Paper Piercer. I use it for everything, from pushing little things into place, to taking out stitches when I'm sewing.<br /><br />Those are my 5 top tools, but I have to add one more thing, because I use it just as much as any of my tools. It's the Tote-Ally Cool Tote 2. I have everything I need to use all the time in it (trimmer, sanding block, ruler, pens), and I sit it right in front of me on my table, so I can grab things quickly. You can also travel with it.<br /><br />So what are your favorite tools? I'd love to know! :)Katiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07202225989106796872noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035490815951539973.post-29550747160881855042009-09-10T21:29:00.003-05:002009-09-10T21:43:45.374-05:00Planing to Start Up Again!I'm sorry there hasn't really been any new posts or videos lately, I've been really busy because I just started school again, and it has been great weather outside all week. I'll try to post something by the weekend, but no promises. I do want to do a review on the new paper trimmer I got yesterday, and a few more "Quick Tip" videos. If you have any suggestions for video ideas, I'd love to hear them! And I'm also going to post more things on Etsy, so look for those!Katiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07202225989106796872noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035490815951539973.post-50416221536144520172009-08-07T13:49:00.005-05:002009-08-07T14:06:07.476-05:00Shell MirrorHi guys, I just finished making this really pretty mirror. Some of our relatives just came back from Florida, and brought my sister and I back blank mirrors and a bag of shells to decorate them with. I really like how mine turned out.

I'm starting a contest on my blog and at my YouTube channel(KatiesCraftingCorner). What I'm doing, is trying to come up with a neat name for some videos I'm going to post on YouTube. These videos will be on how to create great looking paper crafts, but using stuff you would find in a different part of the craft store (such as yarn or fabric). I'll probably post them once a week. So if you know what I should name these videos, just tell me by commenting either at YouTube, or here at my blog. The name I like best will be what this group of videos will be called forever! Good luck!</div>Katiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07202225989106796872noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035490815951539973.post-7358154762644818642009-07-20T15:28:00.002-05:002009-07-20T15:36:25.696-05:00More Etsy!Hi guys, here's a new video I just put on YouTube. It's showing all the stuff I've posted on Etsy so far. I really would like it if even just a few people would go look at what's there. If the kit goes fast I'll post another one, but if it doesn't sell for a while, I'm not going to. So if your thinking about getting it, get it SOON! Anyway, here's the video: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OPeF-DtnDM">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OPeF-DtnDM</a> Enjoy!Katiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07202225989106796872noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035490815951539973.post-5718224833891101402009-07-17T16:25:00.002-05:002009-07-17T16:31:41.746-05:00Etsy!<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Yay</span>!
