Exploding Picture Box





Exploding Picture Box class: $20 
(includes all supplies needed to complete the project and instructions so you can make more on your own).

I will be holding a special project class where we will create this exploding picture box. It holds 25 photos (if you place a picture in each square) and is perfect for displaying on a coffee table or shelf. If you don't have 25 pictures, you can decorate some of the squares with stamped images and embellishments.

It's great for a wedding, birthday, or Christmas gift. You could give an empty picture box but I think it works a little better if  it includes the photos.

Please bring 25 photos (all will need to be cropped). If you have the following supplies, please bring them: paper trimmer, cutting mat, exacto knife, scoreboard, embossing stylus, and scissors. If you do not have the above supplies, we can take turns using mine.

May Card Club Projects





All projects were made using Avonlea paper - I love this paper. It is my absolute favorite! For card club members, please choose two of the above projects to make in our May gathering. If we have time, we will also make a small milk carton project.

Preparing for the First Stamp Group

All of the materials have arrived and I am starting to prepare for the first stamp club meeting by cutting the paper and dividing the materials into kits. We will be making a card and a card box. Everyone can also choose to make either an additional card or a scrapbook page.

Close to my Heart

As of April 1st, 2013, I am a Close to my Heart consultant. I love the products and use them in my scrapbooking, card making, and craft designing. I'm so excited to be able to share my love of stamping and crafting with others. This blog will feature projects that I have created using Close to my Heart products. We will be making some of the projects in the monthly card club and others in workshop classes.
