Learn & Grow
Designer: Kristen Swain

Flutter Butter Burst, Flutter Butter Breeze, Flutter Butter Willow, Flutter Butter Combo Sticker, Harmony Stamp, Butterfly Dreams iCandy

Designer Tip: I recycled/reused the clear packaging our Buttons and Bling come in. To make my flower shapes on my layout, I stamped with Staz-On ink, allowed to dry, then punched the images out with a circle punch. I then layered the punched plastic pieces onto punched flower pieces and had a basic flower that I then embellished with gems. The larger circles are stamped onto blue plastic binder divider sheets that I cut around the image, after stamping and letting dry. Again, I added a gem, but no background to these embellishments.




Spooky Frame
Designer: Carole Janson

Time For Treats Cardstock Stickers, My Eye On U ICandy Jewels, Mr. Bones Stamps, Boo Crew Ghoul Friends pattern paper, Boo Crew Here's Looking at You pattern paper, Boo Crew Dot pattern paper, Boo Crew Crew Stripes, Boo Crew Cut Outs, Boo Crew Combo Stickers

Designer Tip: I created a 3 Dimensional picture from an old frame that I had, which I broke the glass on, so it was perfect. Clean an old frame thoroughly before creating your 3 Dimensional Project so all you paper piecing sticks really well.

Designer Tip: I received the clear packaging in the mail with a product sample in it. Normally that would go right out into the recycling however I thought the size and shape would be perfect to use to hold a set of cards. As it turned out..it was!
