Craft Warehouse Assignment #5-Part 4

The last assignment was to use the Hometown Summer line of papers and embellishments to create a 3D layout for a shadow box.

Craft Warehouse Assignment #5-Part 3

Part three of our project was to use a chalkboard sticker on anything in our home. I chose a candle. :) It is very pretty at night when it glows.

Craft Warehouse Assignment #5-Part 2

This line is Pink Paisley's Hometown Summer line. The sheet with the houses on it is named Sunnyside. lol. Wish my house looked like that. I guess we do have atire swing on our big tree in the front. This is a spin off from a layout I saw Diana making. Loved the look so I created my own.

Craft Warehouse Assignment #5-Part 1

I am so excited about the current assignment with craft warehouse. There are four parts to this assignment. Create a mini book, create two one page spreads one being 3D and use a chalkboard sticker on something in your home. Today I spent many many hours creating my mini book.

These lines didn't have any dimensional elements in them so I took a tip from my friend Diana to add height by using multiple layers of paper. Then I did it over and over and over again. I did this on the button embellishments on the front and glued several pages in the book itself together to make a chipboard look.

The finished product was so cute. I am tempted not to give it away!

2.14.2011 Craft Warehouse Assignment #4

This month's assignment was to use the Flora and Fauna K & Co. collection and the Tim Holtz Configurations Box. I thought of my grandparents as soon as I saw this paper line. I loved it and added a wedding photo of my grandparents to the project. I used wood beads as the feet and spray painted the boxes with chalkboard paint.

12.16.2010 Teacher Gifts

I had to make eight teacher gifts this year. Not because I have eight kids but work at a school. I found these letters on sale at Craft Warehouse and thought they were really cute. I then painted them with Chalkboard paint and tied a piece of chalk to each one.



I also made each teacher a card. The card is made with Echo Park and My Minds Eye papers. The embossed Christmas wording is from Tim Holtz.

11.21.2010 Day 2: Mother-in-Law Gift

So I can't decide. Candle inside or photos of grandchildren. hmmm... What do you think?




Either way I will hang cute little butterflies from the inside of the dome.

11.20.2010 Craft Warehouse Assignment #3

About two weeks ago I submitted my Design Team Assignments for project #3. This month we worked with Echo Park's "Everybody Loves Christmas" and Basic Grey Lines "Wander" and "Pyrus." It was so much fun. I wish I would have had more time to take some great photos of the projects. This project was a quick one due within three weeks and it was really hard to get into the Christmas swing of things. :)
