Clean Your Scrap Space Challenge

Lori has issued a challenge to all over on the forum. Check it out.....




January always seems to be the time when we all want to purge and clean and organize. I have noticed that many people are talking about organizing where they scrapbook and getting back to scrapping. So I am posing a challenge for the month of January.

In this thread post a "before" picture of your space. Then clean, purge and organize to your heart's content and post an "after" picture.

At the end of the month I will select a random name from all those who participated and send the winner a $25 Gift Certificate for Starbucks (or Timmies if you prefer).

Who wants to get organized?!?!?!?!?!


You can find the thread on the forum HERE. Pop on over and join in on the fun! Stick around and surf the forum too for fun and chatter and challenges.

December Product Highlight

Product Highlight for December are the Maya Road Chipboard Keychains and Coaster Books. Just in time to whip up some last-minute holiday gifts or decorations!! The design team has created some gorgeous projects with these products and have showcased beautifully some different ways to put them to use!

Be sure to stop and get yours for 15% off for the entire month of December.

Vicki - I received the very sweet mittens chipboard album and the Christmas words key chain. Instead of making and album, I combined the two and made a banner. I punched an extra hole in the mitten with my crop-a-dile and strung it on pom-pom ribbon from the My Mind's Eye Holly Jolly line.

I also painted it with Ranger's Paint Dabber (in the colour lettuce), put on a coat of of Rock Candy crackle paint and inked with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

I added photos and chipboard elements from Holly Jolly as well. I inked the key chain words with Fired Brick Distress ink and attached them with a brad.


Heather - I worked with the Townhouse Coaster Album and the Christmas Words Keychain. I decided to use them to create a layout to showcase our holiday family photo (still to be taken so you have to imagine it is there).

A close-up of the house - I inked it with Distress Ink, added some colour with Copics, used Rock Candy Crackle Paint on the windows and door, created snow using my Snow Marker and some Stickles, and used Stickles on the shutters. I added some Dress It Up embellishments in the form of lights.

A close-up of the title - I inked the words with Distress Ink, then covered them with Stickles, adding Prima flowers to hide the holes from the keychain.

Shelley - I got the Maya Road Christmas Tree key-chain book, and decided to make an ornament book for my Mom & Dad of each of their grand-children's first Christmas. I still need to get the photos on it, I had to go searching through the boxes of photos (pre-digital) of my kids first Christmas to scan and then print. But here it is without the photos, hope you like it

I embossed the trees, then inked them with Distress Ink, and then added glitter to some of them. I used the Quickutz font from the 2009 gift set, and the trees, ornaments and the HO, HO, HO from the 2008 gift set. Also added stickles , and used Basic Grey's Jovial on the backs of the trees, and Bazill cardstock for the ornaments (which is where the pictures will be if you can imagine it!!) and I changed the chain to a ring from a Fontworks chipboard album.

Tanya - I received the snowflake chipboard book and christmas key chain words. I used glimmer mist on the chipboard snowflakes and ink on the word. Some AC thickers, PP and ribbon are from the My Mind's Eye 'I believe' line.

_______________________
And now, let's take a look at some Sneak Peeks from the fabulous Design Team! Of course, this month is all about the Christmas!!! Each member of the team is playing with a different line and working on those holiday projects!!
Shelley - Well this month I have the pleasure to work with the Merry Christmas line from Echo Park. It is scrumptious, you HAVE to get some of this paper!! One of the sheets of paper just screamed advent calendar, so of course I made one!! I tied them on a string, but I think I will hang them all over the tree when it is up, and make that part of the fun of finding each number!!




Vicki - This month I received the JAW DROPPINGLY GORGEOUS Holly Jolly line by My Mind's Eye. I can honestly say it is THE BEST Christmas line I've ever seen. Run, don't walk to get it. I can't wait to play with it some more!!!


Heather - This month I am playing with the whimsical Everybody Loves Christmas line from Echo Park. I love the playful feel of this line and the fun colours. The papers are all double sided and there are two sticker sheets that coordinate with the papers.

Tanya - I received the beautiful I Believe line from My Mind's Eye. This is stunning paper, just love the thickness, glitter and shimmer to these pages. (It's one of those, you have to see it IRL lines.) So, make sure you stop by the turtle to take a look. For my sneak this month, I decided to complete my December daily with this line.

12th (& final) Handmade Gift Idea for Christmas brought to us by Heather



Decorating with a canvas can be a fun and fairly simple way to add a beautiful touch to your holidays.
Begin with a plain white canvas in your preferred size and an assortment of mists and spritzs. I used Maya Mists and Smooch Spritz for my canvas.


Experiment with the colours until you have an effect that you are satisfied with.

The next step is to decorate your canvas in whatever manner you would like. I wanted to create a Merry Christmas canvas so I pulled out my Merry Christmas Quickutz dies and some scraps from the American Crafts Dear Lizzy line. I then used some Bazzill cardstock along with two of the new Lifestyle Crafts dies -- Branches & Berries, and Holly. I arranged my pieces on the canvas and moved them around until I was pleased with the arrangement, than adhered them.


To finish off my canvas I created berries using Dimensional Pearls, added Stickles to my holly berries, and highlighted the words with my glitter pen.



We hope you have enjoyed the DT's 12 Handmade Gift Ideas for Christmas. Thanks for visiting with us each day We'd love to see some of the fabulous handmade gifts that you have created for your friends and family.

11th Handmade Gift Idea for Christmas brought to us by Tanya


Today I thought I would show you a super quick stocking stuffer. I started with a piece of chipboard (it was a piece I had from packaging and just decided to recylce it) and some computer paper.


cut the computer paper in half and created three little booklets out of them.

I then cut a piece of patterned paper 1.5 inches larger than the chipboard. Make sure you score the chipboard in half before adhering the paper. Fold the sides in and securing it to the chipboard piece.


Cut a few pieces of coordinating paper to cover the inside flaps and then punch holes through the covers and papers. Secure it with ribbon.


Add some ribbon with a loop to hold a pen and finish embellishing as you desire.
