Pull-out Scrapbook



Whoaaaaaaaaa Nelly!!!!!!!!! Seriously, I managed to pop this off whilst shaking Thing 1 off my chair and Thing 2 grabbin my arm. Oh, the sacrifices for the art ;-)

This is a project I'm doing for my hostess club, called a "Pull-out Scrapbook". This, in one word, is AWESOME. Why? Because it suits any level of scrapbooker. You can make it just with your papers, or you can add stamps. You can add eyelets, embossing and fibres. The list, really, is endless. This is pretty simple, consisting of papers, CTMH "Stickease" stickers (seriously, I used stickers) and two stamps (on the cover).

Think a quick birthday gift (you don't have to add the pics, they can!!), a hostess gift, teacher gifts and XMAS gifts!!! You could put some pics in it that cover the past year!! :-)

Dahlia Fold Cards

I love them. End of story.

Dahlia fold cards are the BEST way to get that "my card is better than your card." Period. ;-) LOL!!!

These little beauties I will be teaching at Tina's Scrapbooking Creations (http://www.tinascrapbooking.com/) on October 4th, 2008 at 1 p.m. Check out her website for some new products and such, too!!! THEN....head on over to her design team gallery where you'll find....ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am SOOOOOOO excited to have been selected as part of her design team for the 2008-2009 season!!!! :-) Thanks, Tina...I'm honoured!!!

These cards feature the "Love You" line by Daisy Bucket...by far my most favourite paper line company for doing dahlia fold cards!! First, because they're THIN papers. This makes it so much easier to fold the little pieces (what pieces, you ask? come take the class!!) Second, because they're double sided. I'm always looking for "more bang for your buck". And for these particular folds, it just makes sense. THIRD? I love the colours.

Hope you find inspiration today!!
