free to be me

the three layouts below are all from the same CTMH paper pack - Free to be Me and yet are all very different... I love how they turned out and that I was able to add so may pictures to each of them...  scrap happy...

step panel card

saw a post from Simone in the CTMH Artwork group for a step panel card which she had created from Dawn's You Tube tutorial and of course, I just had to make one too :) They are really cute and lots of fun to make! Simone made some alterations and you can check out her version here. The smaller size gives you the opportunity to use up some of those pesky scraps that you can't seem to throw away. scrap happy...

inspirational tag mini

Pootles Papercraft has a tutorial for doing up this cute little gift box (2" x 4" x 1") which I thought would make a cute inspirational tag journal. While I did add a ribbon to the front, my box closes with a magnet instead of ribbon. I added ten tags which are 3 3/4" tall and in hindsight, they should have been a little shorter in order to allow head space for the ribbon. I added a background script to quite of few of the tags and most of the backs have journal lines on them. Quite a bit of the rest of the stamping has been clear embossed and I used both CTMH's Twilight ink and Tim Holtz's Wild Honey Distress Ink throughout. As I want the focus to be on the sentiments, I have not done any other embellishing... scrap happy!!

"happy" pocket mini album...

hey there, it has been such a long time with no really good excuse so please take a look at a mini that I have just completed...  it is based on a tutorial from CorenesCreations and her instructions are really very good.  I used the Plus One 6x6 paper pad from Amy Tangerine which is full of wonderful colours and lots of cut apart pages for tags and embellishing.  I used a couple of punches, a little bling on the cover and then added some 4x6 and 3x4 journaling / project life cards that I had in my stash. This will also hold 4x6 pictures for a particular event or recipe cards, etc. etc. etc...  happy scrapping... :)
