It's time for a round up of awesome crafty ideas from around the blog-o-sphere!
From the Studio Calico blog, Kelly Noel shares how to use your letter stamps as misting masks. So simple and so smart!
Celine Navarro shares a cool new product from Cosmo Cricket. It's kind of a giant glue dot and it's perfect for rolling your own flowers!
Kaori Watanabe is one of my favorite scrapbookers and she shares a step-by-step tutorial on creating one of her artsy layouts (above is a close-up of a section of the layout) on the Crate Paper blog!
Altered Books that are AMAZING
Totally amazing altered books! I think they're made just with creative folding….
Fabulous tutorial from Tara Anderson on turning forlorn scraps into yummy cakes and other sugary treats! Yum!
From the Inchie Arts blog, a fabulous idea for free, yet contained, art! I can see myself making dozens of these!
Does cooking count as a craft? I hope so! Because I had to link to these delicious looking homemade peanut butter cups. I feel like I might actually make these someday — oddly enough I don't like peanut butter, but I loooooooove peanut butter cups!
Lay Hoon over at Me Scrap has made some beautiful hand cut stencils and she offers a great tip for preserving them for later!
Awesome tutorial from Kinsey Wilson on the Crate Paper blog on how to make these cool pleated circles. I never thought of making each pleat individually. Very neat idea!
This idea is also from the Crate Paper blog (they always have fun tutorials!) but it's from Larissa Albernaz. Looking at the photo I never would have believed it was easy to put together, but Larissa's easy-to-follow tutorial is fantastic and makes it look super simple to do!
Aren't they gorgeous? Easy-to-follow tutorial on Giogio's blog! Definitely a don't miss. She makes it look super simple.
Thanks for stopping by!

P.S. I've got TWO boxes of crafty goodness to give away today! They've both got lots of new never-before-used supplies as well as some gently/partially used stuff. If you live in the New York City area and want one of the boxes, send me an e-mail by 11:59pm today (Monday) and I'll put all the names in a hat and post two winners tomorrow (Tuesday). The boxes must be picked up (from midtown) by Wednesday night. Good Luck!

Thank you for the list of such awesome blogs. The altered book is amazing. I wonder if it is as difficult to do as it looks. Wish I lived closer to you, but suburban Chicago will not work.
Have a happily creative week.

Wonderful ideas; can’t wait to look. I know my daughter will be excited about the domino pendants — if she makes it home. 🙁 She’s out repelling this morning. I hate it the way they grow up and feel they should go climb down cliffs without thinking they need to ask permission.

I love the domino pendants and the altered book is incredible…TFS Julie. Hope you and your paper supplies made it out of NJ dry. I ran into quite a bit of flooded streets while there but did make it to where I needed to be.

Such wonderful ideas for you to share with us. Not positive which one I am going to try first, but the dominoes are calling my name. Drat! I hate when that happens.

Do we need to be members of a class or group? I tried to email but get an error message. I live in NYC and can pick it up if I win. LOVE THESE PICKS! The altered book is astoundingly amazing. Saw Larissa’s carousel on her blog- so beautiful!
