Sneek Peek

I created this card using one of our new spring paper packet- Emporium! I just love this paper. It is almost too pretty to cut! Enjoy the card.

Box Bags- So Cute!

Here is a fun idea! It is a BOX BAG! These would be great to make for friends and family. The possibilites are endless! Enjoy the instructions!

Tina

Materials Needed:

• 1- 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 piece of card stock (bottom of box)
  
• 1- 5 1/2 x 11 Background and Texture Paper (body of box)
  
• 1- 1.5 x 11 piece of cardstock
• Strong Adhesive (I used Liquid Glass)
• Scallop Edge Scissors or Punch
• Stamps or Stickease to decorate box

Close To My Heart Materials Used:

Evensong Creative Basics Paper, B1313 Merry Pursuits, Archival Black Ink, Markers- Cranberry, Holiday Red, New England Ivy, Citrus Leaf, D1313 December Word Puzzle, Watercolor Brush

1. Cut your cardstock 4 1/2 x 4 1/2. Score along each edge at 1 inch.



2. Score corner squares diagonally and fold towards inside of box.



3. Put adhesive on corners and hold down to form bottom of box.





4. Cut your background and texture paper to 5 1/2 x 11. Start your box half way off the edge with the bottom of your box lined up with the bottom of your paper. Use a strong adhesive. Press down the inside of your box. Continue to roll your box along the edge making sure that you press down the inside of each rotation so that you get a strong bond between the box bottom and the background and texture paper!




5. You will need one more strip of paper or cardstock for the finishing touch of your bag. Cut this piece 1 1.2 x 11 inches. I cheated and used a Friskars Punch to get the scallop edge at the bottom. Glue around the bottom of the box.




6. Add tabs for the top and decorate as you please.

Key To My Heart Swap

I am participating in a swap called Key To My Heart, featuring our upcoming special. I thought I would share a sneak peak of some artwork that I did this morning. I am sharing the same card, just done with different color background paper. The pattern is from ORIGINALS! Enjoy. This set is BEAUTIFUL!

I Love Snowmen!

I love CTMH's new snowman stamp set... All Decked Out! I had fun playing with it this week. This card was made with Life's Delights papers! Check out the ear muffs, they are made with Corduroy Brads- a CTMH exclusive. This card just makes me smile. Thanks to my friend Bren Yule who inspired me! Hope you enjoy it!

Flip Album finished

This weekend I worked on a mini-flip album. I created it with CTMH Perfect Day Paper Packet and some photos taken in Malta! I am excited with the way it turned out, so I thought I would share. Enjoy!

Paris in the Fall!

I finished my first scrapbook page from my Europe trip! LOVE IT! I used a layout from Workshops on the go! I think my photos were just perfect for the layout! If you want to make your own layout like this (plus 4 other pages and cards) you can order the products online or come to my workshop on October 30th. FUN, FUN, FUN!
