Mix & Match Mini Album

Hello everyone! Kayla here with another mini album to share with you today! My brother-in-law recently got married. I instantly knew his fiance and I would get along great. I wanted to do something special for her bridal shower. I decided to make her a recipe album.

This is the Mix & Match album. I used Jenni Bowlin Crate Paper and a button to create the flower. I stickled the flourish and added the Antique Label.

I added tag shaped pages in between the mix and match pages. The inside of the cover is a pocket for more recipes. I used the hinge die cut on this page. I googled free recipe cards and printed them off.

Here I used the Scallop Circle Frame in tacky tape and covered it with Doodlebug Sugarcoating Glitter. I also used more hinges and Doodlebug rhinestones.

A close up to show the glitter and rhinestones.

More hinges and rhinestones.

I used Smooch on the hinges that were cut out of chipboard.

On these pages I used the Antique Elegance Frame, Scalloped Circle Frame and more rhinestones.

And finally the last page. I used more hinges and created another pocket to store more recipe cards.

This was so much fun to make! Thanks for stopping by!

Layout Fun

Kayla here, to share another layout! On this layout I used the Large Scallop Circle, small scallop circle frame, Doodlebug Sugar Coating Glitter, and the Doodlebug Lilac Jewels.



Here is a close up of the small scallop circle frame which was cut from tacky tape and I used Doodlebug Sugar Coating Glitter on. It was the perfect base for my flower!


These two cuties are my cousins girls. My son has been asking for them daily, wondering when they are going to come and visit. We only get to see them once a year, which just is not enough!

Back to the layout, I had so much fun making that flower. I think the glittery scallop circle frame makes a fabulous base! I really want to make more of these flowers now!

Other products used on my layout: Butterfly (not sure of the brand, I got it from the Dollar Tree), Bazzill cardstock (from CC&M), Basic Grey Paper, American Crafts Thickers, DMC Floss, Prima Flowers, Unknown Flowers, Colorbox Chalk Ink.

Snow Layout

Hopefully this is greeting you on a sunny day! I know a lot of you have had more than your fair share of snow this year. We, unfortunately, here in Oregon haven't gotten very much at all!

My son got so excited the first morning he woke up to snow. He could barely wait to go outside and play in it. You can tell by his expression he was just too excited to pose for a nice picture.

Supplies used: Doodlebug Bubble Gum Glitter, Tacky Tape Circle, Scallop Frame, Circle Scallop, Snowflake #01 Petite, My Minds Eye Paper, American Crafts Thickers, Unknown Scraps

This was my first time playing with Tacky Tape die cuts and glitter. Boy was it fun! I wanted to give a close up of the frame.

In case your wondering what the tacky tape die cuts are like and how you use them I took pictures along the way.

First, this is what it looks like.

I peeled off one side and put it in a bowl.

I then sprinkled the glitter over it and patted it down to make sure it was on there good.

I then shook the excess glitter off and peeled off the back and stuck it where I wanted it.

It was as simple as that! The Doodlebug glitter bottles don't look all that big, but my container still looks new after using this. there is a TON of glitter in them!

Exclusive Coffin Boxes

Looking for some fabulous ideas for Halloween gifts & goodies? There's still plenty of time to order from Creative Cuts & More!

One of our favorite ideas is the exclusive coffin box, and one example is shown here:



For this creation, Lila used the exclusive coffin box die cut out of Bazzill Bling Flirty cardstock. She also made spectacular use of spiders cut from two-sided Tacky Tape and covered them with Beetle Black Doodlebug Glitter. Aren't they perfectly spooky?
