Aspiring to Creativity: October 2016

Post from Dana: Birthday Card for a Friend

It has been some time since I posted anything. I haven't been doing much card-making, but once in awhile I blow the dust off my creativity and put my tools to work!

I created this card for my friend's birthday:

Which opens to show this:

I can't really take credit for exhaustive multi-step stamping. I used PTI's Make it Market Kit: Garden Gate, which had plenty of ready-to-cut images.

I wasn't sure this card suited the preferences of my friend, but she loved it. :)

You can't really tell from the pictures, but I used photo paper for the gate. Added a unique shine.

Advent Tower - G45 St. Nicholas

Scrapbook Essentials Crop Class

We will be using the new Graphic 45 St. Nicholas paper to create this matchbox Advent tower.

Everyone will delight in pulling open these little drawers to reveal the Advent treats inside. A great project to create for your children, grandchildren, or nieces & nephews. Or maybe you just one for yourself...
