Here's another great video from Stampin' Up! with some tips on using the Heart Edgelits:
If you've been wondering where I am....well - I have GREAT news about my new stamping room - you remember - the one I started gutting back in September!!!! I've been working like a dog trying to get it remodeled. Here's a little sneak peek:
I just can't hardly wait to show you my finished room! I took out all the wood molding and carpeting...I've laid a laminate wood floor - built these shelves in the closet - painted the room 3 different colors - painted the ceiling...I painted all the molding white and installed the baseboards, window and door molding. I have to paint the crown molding and install it (I have it all cut and ready). I've recessed all the nails and filled them in with wood filler. I still have to hit them with a little paint.
When all that's done - I have to build my table...I'm still thinking pretty hard on this one. I ordered countertop in an "L" shape - I bought 2 filing cabinets - sanded them and repainted them white. I'm planning on putting the file cabinets under the counter top on each end to hold my table up. The part I'm struggling with is figuring out the leg in the front corner of my table... I also ordered a piece of countertop to make a cabinet under one of my windows (YES - you can see I will have windows!) So I have to build something to go under it. You know I'll show you a ton of photos when I'm done!!!!
Thanks for stopping by...
Wow!! You're making awesome progress!!!

Wow! Congratulations on the progress of your new stamp room. My nine year-old told me today that I need my own room. She's pretty smart ; )

Kelly,
You do say I, you laid a laminate floor yourself? WOW if you did. You built the shelves and all that stuff. Not me. I figured you had your husband do some of that stuff. It will be great when it is done and I am anxious to see the finished product. Hurry so I can see it. Good job if you did the stuff yourself and good job if your husband did. hahahha

Wow Kelly I'm proud of you for doing it your self. Some times it is better to do it yourself. One you will ahve it the way you want it and second it will get done faster. I can't wait to see the finished room. Keep up the GREAT job.
