I love my cookie sheet advent calendar, but I wanted another advent that I could use for little treats, special notes and other small holiday goodies. So I cut down two very large branches from a tree in my backyard, spray painted them silver and added some glitter. Then I used some vintage music paper and made little cones. I embellished them with trim, ribbon, flowers and vintage buttons. I used...

Director** of social media Kurt Greenbaum recently ran a Friday thumbsucker asking commenters to name the "strangest things" they had ever eaten. Greenbaum's narrative : Then, while I was in our 10 a.m. news meeting, someone posted in reply a single word, a vulgar expression for a part of a woman’s...

Can you beleive it's finally the end of the latest scrapwhisper big reveals! Well I certainly can't! Check out what Team 5 did: In case you have forgotten this is the original layout: Karry changed the size, drew her own scalloped border, kept the 2 font title and the buttons, added her journalling in strips, tore her paper, made everything narrower and added a subtitle too! Peggy kept the colours...

The Buell XB9SX is an oddity. What you get is an old-school v-twin in a high-tech chassis, all wrapped up in a mad-max style urban scrambler. On paper it makes very little sense – a modern naked middleweight out-performs it...

The Muji hole punch, with its strategically placed punchers, takes Lego blocks, combines them with paper, and makes a whole mess of adorableness. Import from Japan for literally minutes of fun. [ Muji via Highs Nobiety via MAKE via Boing Boing ]

You can't find this Google brand toilet paper elsewhere except in Vietnam because this "100% virgin pulp" toilet rolls were made in this Asia country. The subtext of this Google toilet paper reads, "Very long, soft, smooth. Of high vacuum, because you always!" I wonder whether Google's bosses know about this product. BTW, is Google's bosses are still Larry Page, Sergey Brin and...

via assets.sbnation.com View full size photo » The first time Syracuse and Rutgers played each other in 1914, they tied (14-14). It would be the last time the two teams walked onto the same field evenly matched against one another. From that point forward up until 2004, Syracuse basically dominated this series the way hairspray dominates the hair of a Staten Island meathead pumping fists at D'Jais...

Here are some photos of my most recent artwork. It's made completely from the paper of the two moleskines and it is rather lucky to still be alive. As in, my frustration occasionally got so large all I could think of doing was ripping paper, the paper it is made out of, into tiny teensy little pieces and setting fire to it. But I didn't, which I'm very happy about. :) My Blog: Elle's Journal Subscribe...

Another card sketch on the blog today. I have to say I am loving the card sketches lately. The more simpler sketches are my favorites so I love the recent sketches, where you can add your own little twists to the design, this weeks is no exception! I chose some old paper scraps this weeks for my card, paired with a stamp from Kim Hughes (CHF) and some general craft supply flowers. Cards don't have...
