Ok so I did get the mini album finished today :) I made this for my daughter using some of the pictures of her & her boyfriend together. Well here is the finished project.













Supplies used: Xyron adhesive, Nikki Sivils Beatrice line & burlap buttons, Maya Road wooden buttons & flowers, Prima pearls, misc ribbon.

I'm So Grateful For You!!!

Hey there everyone.....I know 2 posts in 1 day!!! Well today is my last day as a design team member at Just Imagine Kreaxions Punches so I wanted to share my creation with you today. I started working on this mini album (which the inside is not done yet), I will share the entire album once it's finished....which maybe later today if the mojo keeps flowing:) So the size on my mini is 8 1/2" X 4 3/4" .



On this cover you will find some YUMMY Nikki Sivils paper and stickers from the Beatrice line. Super excited I can now get all of the lines locally at The Scrapbooking Studio :):):):) I did a little stitching on the green background paper before attaching it to my chipboard. I also love ink, so yep I inked everything! The fabulous little butterfiles are from Kreaxion Punches!!! Are they not super cute?!?!?!? The buttons that I have tied onto the binding are Maya Road wooden buttons, which I misted to 3 different colors. Now check out those cool burlap buttons on the bottom....yep those are Nikki's too!!!!

Well i'm off to get the rest of my mini done now!!

Playing with paper, twine & Xyron

Hey there everyone....well TGIF!!! So I came across these super cool wooden bobbins from Maya Road at The Scrapbooking Studio and thought.......I could make a braclet with some of my scrap paper. So gather some of your left over paper (I used Jillibean paper), Xyron 150 and of course some twine!



Step one - Cut your strips of paper to the width of the bobbin and also cut pieces of twine then run through your Xyron machine.



Step two - Simply wrap the paper and twine around the bobbins.




Step three - Grab some beads and stretch magic and simply alternate the paper bobbins with the twine bobbins placing a bead between each bobbin.



So there is my little project for today....so remember NEVER throw away your scrap pieces of paper, you never know what you can make with them.
