GRADUATION CARD

I created this 'Twist - n - Pop' card for Grandson's college graduation.  When it is closed it measures 4" x  6".  There is a wonderful tutorial for this.  You can find that HERE.

Opened up it measures 9 1/2" x  12".  I made my own papers using clip art on the internet.

Close up of the sentiment.

Here's the back side.

FLIP LID CUBE GIFT BOX

I created this project as my entry for the April Challenge at 'The Funkie Junkie Boutique Blog'.  The theme is 'A Mothers Love' and we needed to use the word 'love' in the project.  You can find more information HERE.

I am so happy to announce that I won one of the 'Top 3 Badges' for this challenge!!

I used a great tutorial by Sam at 'Mixed Up Craft'.  She even showed how to make a very useful template for folding and cutting.  That tutorial is HERE. 

This is my flip lid box before I decorated it.  I used papers from the 'Fairie Dust Collection' by Graphic 45.  Box measures 3 1/2" x  3 1/2".

This is the basic set up using scalloped nesting dies, floral leaf and heart shaped dies. 

Here's the back of the box.  The dragon flies came from clipart on the internet.  I brought them into Photoshop Elements and sized and colored them.

MINI SCRAPBOOK FOLIO

I created this 'Mini Scrapbook Folio' using the 'French Country Collection' from Graphic 45 Designs.  It measures 4" x  6" when closed and secured with a ribbon.  

Opened up it measures 6" x  12".  This is the outside.  The middle section is actually the back.

This is the inside. On the left is a corner pocket for lists or journaling mats.  The middle is a waterfall section secured with a magnet/ribbon.  

This is the inside showing the flap that lifts up on the right.  Under it is a storage pocket.

This is showing the waterfall opened up.  Plenty of room for photos.  I used a wonderful tutorial at 'The Scrappy Bookworm 1' for my inspiration.  You can find that HERE.
