That Way

It’s Friday and I have a Design Team project up on the Just Imagine Crafts Blog.

For this layout I used some of my stash of scraps … all those bits and pieces left over from other layouts and cards. I punched a border strip using the Kreaxions 4 in 1 punch #311. The punched border strip just adds that little something extra to the layout.

Treat Bag

This week the challenge at Kaboodle Doodles is “ Buttons & Twine”.

I don’t know how many times I have needed to wrap a gift only to find I was out of paper and/or tape. I’ve discovered that you can take a plain, ordinary, brown paper lunch bag and turn it into cuteness. I punched the top edge of the bag with the Kreaxions 4 in 1 punch #312 and then added a tag, a button and some twine. What a cute Christmas treat bag this turned out to be!

You Make Me Smile

Oh how I love the Kreaxions Circle Cutter … the possibilities are endless!

I cut the circles on the 12X12 patterned paper and then backed them with scraps left over from other projects. I went through my stash and pulled out all my pink embellishments … and viola …a very girly layout.

Turkey Pillow Pockets

It‘s Monday and there is a new challenge on the Kaboodle Doodles Challenge Blog. This week the challenge is: “Thanksgiving”

Remember when I told you I had found a new favorite … Pillow Boxes!? I love these little boxes and the possibilities are endless. I made 10 of these little “Turkeys”. They will be filled with hand sanitizer and used for the boy’s teachers gifts for November.

Snowman Card

Do you have a favorite scrapbooking tool, one you love and that you find yourself using over and over again. I do and it’s the Circle Cutter from Kreaxions. I’ve tried a LOT of circle cutters and this one is by far the easiest to use!

I created this cute snowman card using my favorite tool and my stash of cardstock scraps.

Crash Your Stash Challenge

I have the Wednesday Crash Your Stash Challenge at Turtle Soup today.
What scrapbooker or card maker doesn’t have piles of cardstock left over from projects? Yes … we all do!

My challenge to you is to create a project using up your stash of left over cardstock. No patterned paper allowed. You can use embellishments on your project if you like.

You have the option of completing either a Layout, Card, Tag, ATC or altered project.

I made a card and punched strips of cardstock creating scalloped edges.

Happy Fall

It‘s Monday and time for another challenge on the Kaboodle Doodles Challenge Blog. This week the challenge is: “ Bountiful Harvest Blessings”

I thought I would try my hand at making a cone wreath. I will say I am very pleased with the way it turned out! J

Lovely

There is a Design Team Reveal up on the Just Imagine Crafts Blog today and the theme is “family”.

I completed this layout using a photo of Randy’s mom LaVerne and our daughter Jessica’s six sweet children. I don’t think LaVerne will be making any more trips to Florida with us and not knowing when Jessica and Aaron will be making a trip home again … well these memories are priceless!
I punched the border strip with the Kreaxions 4 in 1 punch #304. I used the circle cutter to cut 1 ½” circles to make a scalloped edge.

Merry Christmas

I can’t believe it’s November! That means I need to get my Christmas cards in the mail by the end of the month. For this card I used the Kreaxions Star Template, and the Kreaxions 4 in one punch #312 with the “A” insert. I used the Kreaxions Circle Cutter (best circle cutter I have ever used) to create the green circle for the backdrop. I distressed all the edges and added the Merry Christmas SRM sticker to complete the card.

Scraplift Thursday

Today I have the Thursday Scraplift Challenge up at Turtle Soup.
I picked a card by Julg60.  You can view her card in the gallery here.  I LOVE all the layers.

 

This is my take on the card.

 



You have all month to complete your project. You also have the option of doing either a Layout, Card, Tag or ATC ... and with scraplifts you have the option to do this exact lift or share your choice of a lift and your example. Be sure to check out the forum for the details.

Heart Banner

 

This week the challenge at Kaboodle Doodles is “ Loved One”. I automatically thought of hearts. I think hearts say a lot without saying a word. I made this banner for my daughter's bedroom.
