Valentine Project For My Daughter

Tomorrow is of course Valentine's Day and my daughter had to have a box for her Valentine's so this is what we came up with from supplies in my stash!  First we covered the box with 2 layers of tissue.  We used K&Co. Ka-Zoo paper pad papers and embellishments to decorate along with lots of glitter and a feather boa.  On the handle we tied some tulle and added a paper flower.
Thanks for looking!  Happy Valentine's Day!!!

KEYS

Michi got some great new dies for her Accucut at the scrapbook store and this scallop circle is one of them.  I decided to use some pictures that I took of my girls last spring so I chose some patterened paper and colored cardstock to match the flowered tank tops they were wearing. (I'm behind on printing my pics so I dont have them printed out yet, shame on me!)  I also got these great chipboard keys by Bazzill and that is how I decided on the title.  The flowers are Prima, the leaves are from iamroses.com and the title is done with Thickers.  I used my Ranger paint dabber in espresso to distress the edges and cover the raw chipboard edge.  The cover is all I have done since I dont have the pictures printed.  I will post the rest later!  Until then thanks for visiting.  HAPPY SCRAPPING!

"CREATE" Banner

I have been wanting a banner for my scrap room that says create, I just couldn't figure out what I wanted to make it from.  I found these cool acrylic banner pieces at Scrapbooker's Emporium that I thought would be fun to try.  I used a bag of those K&Co. die cut pieces and I think it was the Crafty or Create set that I used.  It had paper and acetate die cuts in the set.  It was a lot of fun to put together and I think it turned out great.  Exactly what my craft room needed!
The banner is by Clear Scraps, the letters are chipboard, I used K&Co. die cuts, Rock Candy Crackle paint, stickles, Prima flowers, ribbons, the papers are Daisy D's and tulle to tie it all together!

Library Drawer Album

This is my version of the 7 Gypsies library drawer.  I had these little trays that I had bought at M's on clearance for $1 a while back in my alterable stash.  When I saw the library drawer on the 7 Gypsies website I decided to make my own.  The tray was bare wood so I painted it out in black, distressed it with my Tim Holtz sanding block and added the bookplate.  Next I got to work on the dividers using the Tim Holtz general and seasonal paper pads.  The seasonal one I plan on using to make mini's for each holiday.  This is going to be a year long project and I will post pictures as it comes together.
