Back To School - Crayons Holder

Sunday, August 17, 2014
Hello all! Sharing with you today is a DIY crayons holder I made for Xyron's Back To School week. Step by step instruction is provided.





Tutorial starts here:

Step 1: Trim a piece of card board (I used one of those boxes from USPS) to the size of a 12 x 12 patterned card stock that you decide to use as the background of the holder.


Step 2: Adhere card stock on top of the trimmed 12 x 12 cardboard 


Step 3: Cut the holder's templates (I designed and cut these with my Cameo)


Step 4: Fold the templates


Step 5: Apply adhesives (I used Xyron  1/4" double sided tape) to all the edges


Step 6: Adhere holders to the 12 x 12 card board from Step 2


Step 7: Cut embellishments (I designed and cut these cute color labels with my Cameo)



Step 8: Run the cut outs through  Xyron 2.5" Sticker Maker


Step 9: Embellish the holders with the cut outs and holder background with card stock stickers, card stock strips/borders, etc. Anything your heart desires! :)


This is how it looks like when it's done.

Love You Everyday Layout

Wednesday, August 13, 2014
Today I'm sharing a layout I created using Clear Scraps August Kit and Just For Fun Rubber Stamps, I love the acrylic banners included in the kit and I can't help to create a layout with it. The Chalk Studio card stock from MME makes perfect background for the banners!

I stamped and embossed some cornflower images using JFF Stamp in the background and stenciled some larger flowers (which later I used it as embellishment - ones in pink) with white chalk inks. The larger flowers are cut-outs using the patterned card stock in the kit.

I designed some banners that fit just the size of the acrylic banners with letters "L", "O", "V" and E" on each of them. Then stick it over the stamped flower images with foam stickers so you can see stamped image through the cut out letters.

Embellish away! I stamped a butterfly image and colored it with alcohol markers. 

 Cut out title {heart} you everyday

Supplies and tools: 
- Doodlebug Sequins
- Inkadinkado Embossing Powder (White)
- VersaMagic White Chalk Ink

Mini Album with Clear Scraps

Friday, August 8, 2014
Today I'm sharing a mini album that I made with the tag chipboard album that is included in the Clear Scraps August kit. Again, I love the Chalk Studio collection card stock in this kit, the prints on the card stock allows you to cut it out and use it as embellishments on your project!
Here is the mini album...

This is the cover, I basically cut most of my embellishments out from the cardstocks such as the flowers, butterflies, banners and the pink polka dots at the bottom.

I also used a doilie as stencil and applied modeling paste over it. 

Followings are the pages inside the album.
