Scrapin' and Craftin'

During the summer shop hop I learned a lot of great ideas... The one above was an idea I had seen at Scrapbook Lounge in Montclaire and at Pinecone Express. I changed my theme to an apple since it was a gift to my boys school teacher. I purchased the powder fruit packets at Costco and can get about 4 tags out of one 12x12 sheet. I also used paper that was dual sided so I didn't have to do much decorating. I used an apple from the 2x2 quickcutz dies and a thank you stamp from hero arts, brown ink from stamp it up.

Picture Day was today, so I thought a cute gift for Miss Deanna (teacher) would be a photobook incase some the kids give her photos. This idea was from an idea booklet booklet from Pinecone Express. They use one 12x12 sheet and fold and cut in certain way so the turns in a small accordian mini album. This album is so easy and cute, I'm going to make a few of these for my neighbors and friends for christmas gifts.

Another project I did was inspired by a halloween goodie bag I did at a Stamp it Up Class. I change the theme to fit a gardening theme. This was a wonderful presentaion of onion bulbs.

I've stopped working on my layout challenges because I've been working on holiday boutique sale items...
