Hey Everyone!
Yesterday I showed you a layout that I made using the Travelogue collection from Graphic 45. Today I want to show you what I created using the scraps. I used the wonderful paper and layered all the colors to create a fun and bright birthday card.
I matted the card in a rich dark brown so that the colors would just pop off the page. I also took one of the tag stickers from the collection and added my sentiment of Happy Birthday, and finally added a bit of twine from the twinery. Very simple and easy to make!
Stop on in the store to pick up some of this wonderful paper. Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Hey Everyone,
Yesterday I showed you a layout that I made using the Authentique Celebrate collection and today I wanted to share with you a card that I made using my scraps. Yesterday's inpiration I used the collection in the way that it was ment to be used - as a birthday paper line, but today I used the paper to create a card to give to someone special.
I used the paper to create a wonderful card with a tag sticker with the sentiment " Celebrate life everyday everywhere!" This doesn't have to be used for a birthday but just a card to send to someone special. I added a few Hero arts gems and a little bit of twine from the Twinery.
I hope you all have a wonderful and crafty day!

Today I want to share a layout with you that I created using the Heart Collection from Crate Paper. When you see this line of paper you immediately think of Valentine's day; however, I wanted to create a layout using this awesome paper collection but I didn't have any Valentine's day photos. So what is a scrapper do to? Well, I decided to make a layout about the things I love right now. Every year I like to do a layout about the things that interest me.
I like the idea of looking back in my album to see things that I loved. For me right now the things I love are: my iphone, my new pandora bracelet, my tom tom, my nook, my favorite show, modern family and finally my newest addition to my craft table, my cameo!
supplies
cardstock- bazzill
paper, stickers- crate paper
twine- the twinery
misc- ek success circle punch, cameo
I hope you enjoyed my idea of using traditional paper in a non traditional way. Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Do you need to make a couple of Valentine's day cards? Well Amy has made the most adorable card.
Here is what Amy had to say about this card:
All the printed paper on the card is from the tear strips from the paper used in the mini-book! The "with Love" is the name of the Pebbles line I used and was also cut from the tear strip or SKU strips ... whatever you call them! They were just too cute to throw away! Amy
What a clever idea on how to use these strips! Thanks Amy for this idea!
Have a crafy day!
