WELCOME TO THE FISKARS ORANGE BLOG HOP!!

 
If you've come here from Betsy's blog Aim Happy, you're in the right place.  This is your next stop in THE FISKATEERS ORANGE BLOG HOP where members of Fiskateers, a community sponsored by Fiskars, are sharing their passion for crafting.

So I thought about making a scrapbook page, or card with some of my Fiskars tools.  And then I remembered what I had done just a short while ago.  My very favorite Fiskars "Apron Lace" border punch made it's way from my Scrapbook Room ......into... my Laundry Room!  Who says the laundry shelves have to be boring.  I punched the patterned paper with the border punch and then backed it with solid card stock. Never one to not be scrapbook-y, the border is actually attached to the shelves with glue dots! Hey, whatever is handy right?  Also used the same border punch on the little tags for the fabric bins. Fiskars cirlce punch for the flower centers too!I love using my scrapbooking/papercrafting tools and supplies for home decor projects. This little border punch, it just says pretty and neat to me and it's a little retro.  Not! Love it!!!
