Scrappy Saturday


Today is the first post for "Scrappy Saturday". It's an idea I came up with this past week, where on Saturday I'd post a project that is made using up scraps that I have in my stamp room. I don't know about you, but I always have scraps of paper, stamped pieces that I didn't end up using in a project, and so forth.

Anyway, here is todays project:


The flowers are from the stamp set Fabulous Florets, #123023 [w], #123027 [c]. They came from me playing with a new technique floating re-inkers that uses water, re-inkers for the Classic Stampin' pads and Shimmer card stock. Anyway, I loved them but at the time couldn't decide how to use them. So, they ended up in my scrap bucket.

The Very Vanilla textured piece at the bottom was a portion of something I'd used, but didn't need the whole piece. It's done using the Sizzix Big-Shot and the Vintage Wallpaper Textured Impressions folder. One of my very favorites!

The top piece of Designer Series paper is from the First Edition Specialty DSP, and I had a piece that was the perfect width to go with the lower textured piece.

It was a lot of fun to come up with a project using my scraps. Want to play along? Just send me an e-mail with a picture of your project. I'll post them here.

2011 Desktop Calendar

This month in my stamp club meetings, I had the gals make these desktop calendars. It was a big hit. The image to the left of the calendar can be changed according to the season (winter, spring, summer & fall) by removing the image and placing one of the other 3 onto the velcro dot (attached behind the image). The corresponding side of the velcro dot is placed on the back side of the images. I used the stamp set A Flower for all Seasons , #111592, $14.95. And, the extra images are stored inside in a small cellophane bag. The calendar base takes only 1 sheet of card stock to make, measuring 9" x 6-1/2". With simple scoring and folding, it goes together very quickly. Another demonstrator had shared the calendar file that is printed onto printer paper and cut to size. All fit into the 1/2" library clip from the clips assortment (#112580; $6.95). There are 8 of them included in the package along with a couple of other style of paper clips. While they are still ...
