What would I do without my PA Scrappin' Buds?

When I was back east in February, I spent some much needed time with my PA scrappin' buddies. When I posted about my time spent at EA with some of the TNT ladies, I realized I had not posted about my much needed visit with my PA scrappin' buddies! How could I have missed that??? Since they are SOOOOO important to me and I miss them SOOOOO much, I decided to post about them now.

From left to right, we have me, Teresa, Robin and Cindy. Hi, ladies:) We had a great dinner at a local restaurant and then headed over to Robin's house for an amazing dessert:) Thanks, Robin!

I was also able to see Robin's scrap room (which she had just re-organized). I fell in love with some of her organizational ideas and wanted to share some of them, too.

This is a system Robin came up with a while back using some lamp shades, paper clips (pink of course:) and other items to make an awesome homemade clip it up and posted it as her "Frugal Alert!". She has a link from her post with a list of the materials used, so feel free to visit it here!

Also, I have found that Robin has a love affair with IKEA. Can you believe I've never been in an IKEA yet? Anyway, she told me she got this idea there. She hung a baking sheet on the wall so she could attach her sorted flowers (in magnet backed tins). I also love this idea as it drives me crazy when I have to shake a flower bottle to get to the one I want. With this wide openings, it's easy to sort through and find the flower you need:) I believe Robin bought the tins with magnets at IKEA.

Thank you, Teresa, Robin and Cindy for giving me my PA Scrappin' buddies fix:) I miss you all:)
