Helloo folks!
Welcome to Iron Craft again! Before we proceed to the episode today I want to say a BIG THANKS to all of you who regularly come visit here for the episodes! ITs so wonderful to get messages from you all about how much you enjoy this weekly meeting 🙂 And its so much fun to read your comments!
So on with the episode…
Today my guest is a very talented crafter and a superb craft teacher! You must have knowingly or unknowingly seen at least one of her craft videos because she makes many of them and always has a tip up her sleeve!
Yep its Catherine Pooler! Welcome to Iron Craft, Catherine!!
Choosing ingredients with Catherine was a lot of fun because she has worked with so many excellent companies! We decided to go with CAS-ual Fridays and are using the Casual Comfort set for our cards today. Thanks Michele and CAS-ual Fridays for sponsoring our episode today!
Here is what we made! My card on the left and Catherine’s on the right.
So funny and so awesome that we BOTH used the black label look for our sentiments! Great minds think alike 😉
Today we have 2 fabulous giveaways and there will be 3 lucky winners picked!
The first giveaway is from Catherine. She is giving out 2 one month memberships to Stamp Nation!
The second giveaway is from CAS-ual Fridays. Thanks Michele! This one is for a $20 gift certificate to the CAS-ual Fridays store!
To win, just leave a comment here answering Catherine’s question from the video interview! I’ll choose a random winner from the comments. Here is Catherine’s question for you again…
Aside from time and money, what is your biggest challenge in papercrafting?
Go ahead and tell us what it is and we may just try and solve it for you with some blog posts and videos!
Cuts, Crops & Creativity 
Space/Organization! I just don’t have the room for all my crafts and usually the supplies end up in a container in the closet!

My biggest challenge is card design. I love to
color and die cut all kinds of pieces. But
then when it it time to put the card together
it takes me forever.

I have limited space and too many supplies, and remembering what supplies on hand. I have I know I just need to take the time to redo my craft space and organize so that I don’t end up with duplicate supplies, but it takes time away from actual card making.

Fabulous interview – fun and interesting! My biggest obstacle is having too many ideas and not being able to settle on one of them.

I loved the interview and the cards. I have that stamp set so now I have other ideas on how to use it. 😉 I have two big obstacles. One, I haven’t found my style so I jump all over the place. I love learning new techniques and try to incorporate them in the next card so I’m always changing. The second obstacle is focus, which relates back to number 1. Sometimes I spend so much time practicing ideas that I don’t get a project completed. Or at least completed to my satisfaction.
