mini scrapbook pages

This is a mini scrapbook layout using ACY and plantin for the mini apple tags. I wanted to have more room for journaling after photo is attached so I made a little pocket on the side for a journal tag. Got to use glitter, always a good thing.

doodlecharm+zoobaloo christmas card

Here's a little 4x4 christmas card I made with doodlecharm and zoobaloo. The background is zoobaloo at 3 3/4 inches and the snowman is 2 inches. I stamped the holiday greetings right in the snow mound. I can't decide if I want to use an orange gel pen or cut out the nose.

Halloween card!

here's my first ACY card. This cart is amazing. Just look at the detail!

This is a standard A2 envelope card. Just take your 8.5 by 11 white card stock and cut it in half. Make sure you cut it down the middle on the 11 in side. I cut a piece of patterned Halloween paper at 4 inches by 5 inches. the Halloween piece is gold card stock cut at 1 inch by 5 inches. and the trick or treating witch was cut at 3 and a half inches.

To assemble I inked the edges of the white card stock with brown ink. I used my cool $1 Halloween stamp I got at Michael's last year for the stamp but you could use any stamp, spell out the word with letter stamps, or even print it out with your favorite font on the computer.

I used mono-adhesive to attach the patterned paper to the card. Then I tied my bow (ribbon from Michael's), attached the Halloween strip, then my witch cut. Before I attached my witch I added some cute dots with a white gel pen.

Feel free to scrap lift, just don't sell it. K?

Happy Scrapping!
