12th Birthday

My nephew is turning 12 and I want to make him a special card.  Mojo Monday 221 had a sketch I could use. I turned it upside down because I wanted to put 12 birthday candles... didn't like how it looked so instead I cut balloons and added the number 12 to make it personal.  Used some old papers, Celebrations Cricut cartridge for the balloons, SU punch, twine, ink, ribbon and a button.  Enjoy!

Candy Cane Holder

Got together with my friend Antonieta to make candy cane holders for her granddaughter and this is what we came up with.  A bit of crimper,  a Martha Stewart punch and lots of left over scraps of paper... love to use those.  Enjoy!

Pearls

I'm running late with this challenge but finally finished the card at 3:20am.  I had this idea of  a pearls Christmas tree and this was my opportunity to create it.  I used Night of Navy but I think it would look nice in Marina Mist or Island Indigo, what do you think?  Enjoy!

The Paper Players Challenge #74 - Lesley's Sketch Challenge

4 You

The idea for this card just popped and before I knew it, it was done. Although it is a simple card, the sketch gave it structure and the colors gave it life. I think the design on the paper makes it masculine which is why I didn't add "bling-bling." I will make a more feminine one and see what I come up with. Enjoy!

Photo Card

I found this idea on a blog and came up with my own measurements to fit an A2 envelope.  This is such a cute way of giving pictures to family and friends. I did a class with it and everyone loved it. It can hold 5 pictures or you can leave some space for writing or decorating like I did.  If you want to create this cutie, feel free to email me at scrapbooktherapy@gmail.com. Enjoy!
