2009 Family Calendar

Here's my lastest project. I always make these every year for my mom, mil, husband and myself. This is the first year that I've done them digitally. Wow, it was so much faster this way. I usually head over to my Aunt's house(my Stampin' Up! supplier) and make them in one of her classes. Instead of using a cd case to hold the calendars I picked up one of those clear plastic picture frames that you can get at Walmart or the office supply stores. This frame is 3 1/2 x 5. I used my freebie calendar found here. All other digital supplies are Sugarplum Paperie's. The kits I used, in order, were December Grab Bag, December Grab Bag, Chilled Wine, Lime Twist, A little Birdie, Twitter Blossoms, China Blue, Mango Sorbet, Whimsey Doodle, Midnight Garden Party(Harvest Freebie), December Grab Bag, and December Grab Bag.

Megan's Journal

So I finally finished Megan's gift. I made this journal for her...it matches the jewelry box I made for her. I used Sugarplum Paperie's Midnight Garden Party kit. I have been making several of these journals lately. They are awesome gifts for kids that love to doodle or write. Even better yet they are super cheap to make...journals are usually $1.00 or less. 

Altered Wooden Snowman

This snowman was so much fun to make! The other day I was at Michaels looking at all of wooden shapes and thought this little guy would be so cute covered in paper. I scanned him to get his dimensions and used Sugarplum Paperie's December Grab Bag for my paper and elements. I used CS4 to design his face and nose. Other supplies: jewels, wire, ribbon, wooden stick, pop dots, chipboard for the sign, Soft Sky SU! ink, and Stazon Brown to sponge around the outside.

Midnight Garden Party Jewelry Box

Hi everyone! Here's my lastet project with this little wooden jewelry box I found at the craft store. I covered it with Sugarplum Paperie's Midnight Garden Party digital kit. You can't see it in the pictures, but I ran the paper through my Big Kick before gluing it onto the box. It looks so cute with all the raised swirls. I used Mod Podge to glue everything down and then put a coat of it on the top of everything. I digi-scrapped some pictures for the the inside of the drawers. This box is for my friends daughter who LOVES the Jonas Brothers. So I put them in the top with a little paper covered wooden heart. I put a rub on on the mirror that says...Ooh la la. In the bottom draw I digi-scrapped pictures of her with her kitty, sister and friends. I still have to add a little bling to it and a drawer pull.
