This week’s tip was submitted by Melitta Ball:

When I am finished reading my favorite scrapbook magazine, I don’t throw it away. I keep them under my craft table and then stamp my projects on them. Along with providing a cushion under my project, when they get inked up I just rip off the messy sheet and I have a new surface to ink against the next time.

I have a ‘coupon’ folder that I keep on my craft table, and when I see a layout in a magazine that I like, I cut it out and place it into the coupon folder. When I need inspiration I reach in and grab out a saved layout.

Whenever I buy products (especially kids toys) and the box has a window front made of plastic, I keep the plastic to use for my shaker boxes on cards. Free windows.
