Everyday Items You'll Need for Stamping

    As I prepare for future posts, I realize that it may be a good idea to mention in advance what you will need for future projects. That way you can have some materials ready to go if you want to try anything out! I have been collecting things for various forms of stamping, so here are three items you can keep around if you have them.

1.  Styrofoam takeout containers. I don't think you can recycle styrofoam anywhere, so the best we can do at least is reuse it, right? Containers with flat, smooth areas are good to keep. Just give them a wash with soap and water and let them dry for a future Stampin' Saturday post.

2.  Cardboard coffee sleeves. Yes, I have a few too many of these. It may be a problem. I promise I do use a thermos to avoid using takeout cups at coffee shops, but I just don't exaaaactly always remember to bring it with me. I like to keep the cardboard sleeves instead of recycling them right away because they are useful for many craft projects. In fact, keep an eye out for a future post all about what you can do with these little coffee huggers!

3.  Jenga blocks. You may have an old game sitting around missing a few pieces that your dog chewed up, or perhaps you spot one at a garage sale. Either way, don't throw it out! The little wooden blocks can come in very handy, and it will save you time in the future for a stamping project. 
    Well, I hope your week has started off well. We had the most glorious double rainbow appear tonight after a massive downpour, so if you are in Terrace, I hope you got to see it!! The bottom  rainbow went PAST the violet and indigo and turned into a reverse rainbow after that. Scientists...what IS that?? I was on a jog so it was very difficult to keep my head facing where I was going while staring at the beauteous sight to my left. It was practically neon, that's how bright it was. Sometimes rainbows like that make me think it means somehting even though its just light and water and science, but it made me think of my friend's grandma who is going through some tough times, so I'm sending all the positive vibes I got from that rainbow your way Mol!!! XOXOX
    
    Anyway, I am gearing up for school to start next Tuesday so I am trying to get as much art done as possible before then. On to the next mess! Happy Tuesday!
