I had an alarm clock box laying around...and it was the perfect size for A2 greeting cards (4.25" x 5.5")...so, guess what I did?


I used a 8.5" x 11" Vintage Botany printed paper and covered the box:


I added some ribbon and lace (Vintage Botany Fibers) on the top and decorated the box with printed designs from Vintage Botany Digital Kit.


And what a box without cards?
I used elements from Vintage Botany Digital Kit on all of them:


Card #2: I colored the flowers with colored pencils, tore and inked the edges of the paper. I added Dimensional Magic in the flower's center and a Vintage Botany Postage Stamp Button.


Card #3: I colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers. I also added Dimensional Magic in the flower's center and a Vintage Botany Postage Stamp Button.


Cards #4: I added some Vintage Botany Fibers and a Vintage Botany Key Charm.

I'm behind on my scrapbooking again! =)
I've been a little busy this past couple of months...so, I've been trying to catch up!

Here's a 2-page layout (they could also be used as single pages...):


Left Page: I simply adhered the photo mats on the printed paper and added some Pattern Play Embellishment Cutaparts. I added a strip of printed paper behind the border. On the decorative panel, I added some Enamel Dots in the circles' centers and some Dimensional Magic on the dots around.


Right Page: I trimmed a piece of printed paper (6.5"x 12") and adhered it on the base. I added 2 photo mats and a Pattern Play Embellishment Cutapart (for journaling). I used a black ribbon below the panel (Pattern Play Fibers). Then, I added 2 Green Feathers and a Resin Swirl on the journaling Embellishment Cutapart.


Here are the pages with some photos I plan to use:



So, this is the end of the Blog Hop...but you can start over again!

First, I made some cards using the Adirondacks Digital Kit:




Photos are from some Caverns in Virginia, but the photos on the right page are supposed to be from the Skyline Drive...I just wasn't able to get it off my phone and print them! haha

This would be your last stop!
Thanks for hopping with us!

First, I have a couple of cards, using Cherry Blossoms Digital Kit and paper from Cherry Blossoms Deluxe Kit:


I printed the patterned papers, sentiments and digi stamps.
I distressed the edges of the printed panel and printed sentiment, added some sequined embroidery thread on the right side of the panel and adhered them to card.
I cut out the flowers, colored them with alcohol-based markers and adhered them on card.
I was going to add Dimensional Magic on the flowers, and once I did on one, I thought it was smudging the image, so I stopped there.
I also adhered a Cherry Blossoms Fan Charm on the right bottom side.

For the inside of the card, I just trimmed a printed paper, adhered it and added the trimmed sentiment:


The second card is a variation on a Gate Fold Card with a belly band:


For the belly band, I used a printed border and a cut out flower.
Then, I cut out the prints I wanted to use and adhered them on the card:

I also decorated the inside...I used a brown gel pen to draw strings on the lanterns, trimmed a printed paper, adhered it and added the trimmed sentiment:


And last, but not the least, I made a scrapbook page...a simple one, since I don't like to cover the designs of pretty papers:


I used a Cherry Blossoms Embellishment Cutapart with distressed edges on the top and adhered some layered photo mats.
I added little details like Cherry Blossoms Embellishment Pack Flower Sequins and Cherry Blossoms Embellishment White Micro Brads in the flowers' centers:


I also added some Blossom Stickers on flowers' centers and other spots.
I like that red photo mat...it's kinda shiny! =)
Finally, I added some gold (CTMH) and foam (American Crafts) stickers.

Here are some of my projects...

1. Table Number Cards:



I used Delft Digital Kit to create them. You could easily resize them to meet your needs.
Left: I tore the crackled background and used Distress Stain in blue to color it. I adhered it on the printed card and added some doodle frames using the blue Gel Pen from Delft Gel Pen Set. Flowers were colored with alcohol-based markers and I added a cut out number 4.
Right: I layered the images and colored the flowers with alcohol-based markers. Then, I adhered the cut out number 8 on.



2. A Scrapbook Page:


I don't have the photo yet...we usually take one on Easter Day and that's what I plan to use! But here's the page with a family photo from last Autumn, just so you have an idea:


I used white cardstock, Delft Cracked Porcelain Stencil + Distress Stain for the background. After stenciling, I added more blue with a lighter Distress Stain and splatters using ColorBox Smooch Spritz.
Then, I layered different washi tapes and added more light blue Distress Stain onto the background.
I printed some digital images (Delft Digital Kit), added Dimensional Magic Glitter - Gold and let dry.
I layered them under the pre-cut photo mat.
I cut several flowers using my Cricut and Flower Market CTMH Cricut cartridge, assembled and adhered them on page.
I added the title using CTMH stickers.
Finally, I added the Silver Filigree Accent on.

The colors and design were inspired by ARTastic March Challenge...


3. A Card, using Delft Cracked Porcelain Stencil:


Place the Delft Cracked Porcelain Stencil on white cardstock and tape them on work surface.
Stamp different images on (border from Delft Greeting unmounted stamps and crackle texture from Delft Jumbo unmounted stamps).


Trace the stencil using the blue Gel Pen from Delft Gel Pen Set and remove the stencil.

Add Dimension Magic (I used the Glitter - Silver one) on the stamped areas and let dry.


Die cut a panel from it and add ribbon. Adhere it on card base, matted with a printed paper panel.
Adhere printed elements from Delft Digital Kit (the square one with foam tape) and a Silver Filigree Accent with a Delft Embellishment Pack Cabochon in the center.
I added a butterfly from my stash and then, a tiny bow.

I love plants and succulents are everywhere nowadays!
That's why I decided to make a Table Top Decoration piece this month...something Spring-y and the best part of it...I don't have to water it! =)


Start with a paper mache' letter "O" (or the number "0"). I chose a deep one, so it can stand on its own.
Paint it with brown paint and before it dries, rub a plastic bag on for a faux leather texture:


I used printed paper for the card and the light green paper for the cut out insert.
I added some Easter washi tape from my stash and added the ribbon (Succulents Fibers) on the flap.
