Project Life Card

While my Project Life for 2013 is off to a slow (very slow) start, my creativity has been in overdrive. I made 20 of these little 3x4 cards for a Project Life card swap. Used some October Afternoon Woodland Park papers and my Kiwi Lane templates. Now to actually start doing some Project Life pages LOL.

Mini Album Swap

I am currently working on a holiday mini for a swap, but I just remembered I never shared the mini I made for a summer album swap.

I chose to use this brightly colored Mango Frost DCWV paper that was completely out of my comfort zone. The mini had chipboard covers and 6x6 page protectors inside. I used my KLD templates (card sized) throughout the book.

Vintage Tag Swap on Two Peas

I had so much fun with this swap...I made there...Love, handmade florals, and vintage kitchen.

For the Love tags I used Martha Stewart heart shaped coasters that I painted inked and glimmer misted. I handmade the flowers and I used some starburst sprays and used a vintage looking bead for the centers. I cut gold swirls on my cricut and used some amber/brown/gold beads for the stick pins. I added some feathers and some red lace...and stamped the word LOVE on the coaster.

The handmade flower tag I used a page from a vintage book (published 1920s), stickles, a pearl top pin, tons of mists, paints and inks, buttons, ribbons, and stamps...so fun. I made the cream flower with my cricut.

The vintage kitchen tag - I used again mists, paints and inks, chipboard embossed with cuttlebug, stamps, primas and my Martha Stewart double scallop border punch.

Another Flower Swap for YPP

For the vintage theme flowers..I used kraft paper and cut butterflies with my cricut and embossed them in my bigshot and used them instead of leaves on my flowers.

Flower Swap

So I did my first flower swap over at Your Paper Pantry (ning) and the theme for August was vintage. This is what I came up with. Used a really old book for one of the flowers...and tons of glimmer mists, moonshadow mists and starbust stains. The other flowers I used my cricut to create them.
