Heart and Crown Box with Mini Album




Hi Everyone!

Here I created a Heart and Crown Box with a mini album inside using the Spellbinders Nested Crowns and Classic Scalloped Hearts die. I love that there's different sizes to choose from. I thought these would be perfect for my daughters for Valentine's Day. Below are the IAmRoses flowers that I incorporated on my project.

Altered Valentine Tin





If there's one thing my girls use a lot of besides shampoo, it would definitely be bobby pins. I was excited to use my new Recollections My Favorite Things paper stack and Spellbinders Heart Circles Nestabilities. I thought it would be cute to create a Valentines altered tin using non traditional colors and loved how it turned out. Bev at The Piece by Piece always carry the most unique trims which went perfect with this project. Instead of just placing the bobby pins in the tin, I thought it would be fun to make heart shaped pouch to place the bobby pin in or just clip them on the design paper. My daughter loved it a lot and I really enjoyed making this for her. Hopefully I'll see less bobby pins everywhere. heehee

Shabby Chic Chipboard House Ornament



Happy Holidays Everyone!

Every Christmas year, its a tradition for my sister, brothers and I to give my mom an ornament for her tree. I thought it would be nice for me to create an ornament for her this year. I really loved the shape of these Studio 18 chipboard mini house album that I purchased from my local Michaels. This year we're celebrating Christmas at my mom's and thought it would be fun to create a Shabby Chic ornament with it. The design paper is from Prima's Botanical collection and the beautiful window is from Prima's Shabby Chic Treasures. I received the adorable Paper Trey Ink dress form die from Arlene and loved how it looked beside the window. I then added the gorgeous I Am Roses Pale Yellow mini Rose on the center of the bow. On the other side of the house are the beautiful Pink and Yellow Spray with the White Cherry Blossoms. For the design paper on the chimmney, I will add my mom's address using the Martha Stewart Numbers Punch. What's also great is that you can create many different projects with these house chipboards. These will also make adorable picture stands by just adding an chipboard easel die cut to the back.
