Paperclip Art

 Hi all,

I am in a group on facebook that I totally love being on which is called Paper Clip Art 

https://www.facebook.com/groups/paperclipart

We have a theme every month for people wanting to join in and if so you can swap with someone else after six months.. I have received so many gorgeous paper clip art pieces and what do I do with them you ask.. Why you can add them to any craft project you do or even bookmarks or gifts.. 





















I hope I have inspired you

to create wonderful things.

Hugs Donna xx

Vellum Pouch - CC 3

  Hi all,

I am following along with the idea of filling my expanding envelope folder and decided to make a Vellum pouch.. Cut a piece of paper at 4 1/2 in x 7 1/4 in. Score at 5 Inches for the top to fold over.

Cut the wonderful vellum at 5 in x 4 3/4 in approximately. I sewed around the two sides and bottom joining the paper and vellum together to make the pouch. Using a pair of scissors with a zig zag blade I trimmed around the vellum to give more interest. To finish it off I added lace, a quote, button with ribbon and a lovely piece of ephemera from the Vintage Tea Collection using 3d adhesive foam dots. I filled the pouch with scrap strips of the papers.



 I hope I have inspired you

Four Pocket Envelope - CC

  Hi all,

Today I am making a four pocket ephemera holder with the gorgeous new Vintage Tea Collection from Couture Creations.. 

Cut a piece of paper at 12 in x 4 in and score at 4 in, 7 in, 10 in. Fold in a valley mountain valley fold, having the shorter bit at the front. Emboss a piece of ULT200070 12 x 12 Cherry Cola Cardstock with the CO729005 3D Embossing 9004 folder Centered Flowers. 


 Open up the larger fold and adhere as shown below. I also adhered the sides together on the front panel to the middle piece. You could change this all around to give you more pockets. 




Finished envelope with tags, including vellum ones (pretty) & paperclip art.



How pretty did this tag turn out. 



 I hope I have inspired you

Waterfall Pocket - CC 4

 Hi all,

Today I am making a waterfall pocket with the gorgeous new Vintage Tea Collection. I will add this to the gorgeous expanding envelope pouch I created. I will do a video to show you all of things I create with the gorgeous Vintage Tea Collection and when I am finished, I will add the link here..

Cut a piece of cardstock 11 1/4 inches x 2 1/2 inches. Score at 3 1/4 in, 3 3/4 in, 4 1/4 in, 4 3/4 in, 5 1/4 in. 


I added strips to the inside. 


Cover the front panel with the gorgeous Vintage Tea paper.

Cut a strip of Cardstock at 5 1/2 in x 1 1/8th in, fold around and attach to the front as shown making sure you only attach it to the front panel not the back piece as it needs to slide. 

Join the strip together so it slides up the back panel. 


Cut four pieces of cardstock at 2 3/8 inches x 2 3/8 inches and attach as shown on the scored panel. Decorate as desired. 





A little side pocket on the base holds a couple of tags, just punch out a finger hole so you can lift them out easy. Just loving the lace and flowers with this collection.



I wanted to show you the colour different using different background papers while taking photos. Unbelievable the difference..

Cookie Box - CC

 Hi all,

I wanted to show you how easy it is to create something from mixed collection. I used the Earthy Delight Collection and the Street Smarts Collection. I had these cookie boxes in my stash for ages and thought why not cover one in these collections and give to my golf crazy cousin filled with my choc chip cookies..

I don't have dimentions as each box is a different size. So, I covered the box only doing half of the sides as they fold in and also the base of the inside just to make it pretty..  Adding the golf pushout on the side and 'you are my favourite person' ephemera piece on the 3D foam circles. I also added the gloves, 'wishing you a happy birthday' and the chess set also from the ephemera set on the box. It really is nicer in person. I fussy cut the leaves and also have a grass punch in my stash which I used with vellum. SO nice..

Vellum Spine Book -CC

Hi all,

I loved this design I seen on yt and to be honest I cannot remember who it was. So I made one from my memory which could be scary indeed lol. All measurements are in inches...

I simply cut two board panels at 3 1/4 x 3 1/2 and covered them with the gorgeous Earthy Delights  papers. I added the vellum spine then covered the bases with a square of the same paper.

I cut four pages at 6 1/2 x 3 1/8 score at 3 1/4   adhere the back of each page on three sides  to the front of the next page with the back page adhered to the base. (leaving a pocket for tags)

I cut five pockets at 6 1/4 x 3 score at 3 inches & 6 inches  Glue three sides together and adhere to each other in the middle of each pocket. Adhere the pocket to the base. 

Cut tags and place in pockets and pages..
