Matchbook Album

My sister and I woke up at 4am on Black Friday to take advantage of the Holiday Specials. We took this photo after shopping at Old Navy and Macy's. I was SO exhausted after that day! Oh...yeah and we had a nice run in with some people at Target! Some people!!

December ATC Cards

I know it's early but here are my ATC cards for December! The theme was Christmas.

CD Photo Cube (Mini Album Holder)

This project was introduced to me by Lisa. I had a lot of fun with this one....until it was time to assemble the bottom base! It ripped on me....so if you decide to make one I would score the base cardstock a little bit bigger then the 7 and 7 1/2 inch mentioned on the video. (Just my opinion) Here is the link to the tutorial so you can try it yourself! Have fun!!

Band Aid Tin Gift Card Holder

I've been working on these gift card holders for Christmas. I purchased the tins at Joann's Fabrics online. Covered the tins in Christmas design paper, added some embellishments, dimensional stickers and of course...lots of ribbon!

ATC Trading Club Update

Here are the sample cards I made tonight. These are just samples to show the group. The group name is Creative ATC Club. Again you would do a group search at http://www.cafemom.com/

Tag Album

I made this Tag Album after we celebrated my sons' 10th birthday. This was my first Tag Album.

2009 Pocket Calendar

This was a challenge I did in my group. It's made from a checkbook size calendar. I covered it with designer paper and stamped a bella image, added some ribbon and a brad. Very easy to make.

Card Holder

I made this card set and holder earlier this summer. It was inspired by this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txjRzDbrF9c Enjoy!

Mini Backpack

I made this backpack about 2 months ago. It was lots of fun. I embossed the design paper to give it a plastic look. It came out better then I expected.

Stationary Box

This last summer attended a Stampin' up class and made this Stationary Box with 4 cards, 4 mini cards, 4 gift tags, an address booklet, and stamp holder. I love it!! I have made 4 more since the day I attended the class. Very cute gift!

ATC Trading Club

So....my friend Lisa and I are constantly looking for new projects and challenges. We are always collaborating with new ideas and new fun projects. I found a fun club called ATC (Artist Trading Card) so we have decide to start our own group. If you would like to take part in this club you MUST be a cafemom user. Here is the link http://www.cafemom.com/ I will update with the group name and a link to the group. I will also be posting pictures of the cards I have received each month.

Altered Christmas Journal

This is made from a compostion notebook. I covered and added embellishments. Did some layering and added some ribbon and buttons.
