Candy Corn Treat Box by Corri

Hi everyone!  I love make treat boxes for my kids friends and teachers.

The new Candy Corn Treat Box is so cute and is the perfect size.

I cut the base of the box from black card stock and the decorative panel pieces from

the Carta Bella – Happy Haunting Collection by Echo Park.

I embellished the box with a small rosette  and used one of the stickers from the collection for my sentiment.

I love how these papers give the box a more elegant look which would make this great for an adult.  You could make it more playful and cute by selecting a more whimsical paper.

Project Life Storage Box by Brigit and Mini Album by Christine

Imagine my surprise when I opened my email to find both designers for today used not only the same paper collection, but the same paper. Both of these stunning projects use Lori’s newest paper line Reflections by Echo Park. Great job ladies. First up is Brigit.

Hi everyone, I have a wonderful project life box from Lori’s shop that stores 4 x 6 photos and 3 x 4 life cards.  This box would make a wonderful gift or use it yourself to keep your project life cards nicely organized.

The pretty paper is from Echo Park’s Reflections designed by Lori.  This is such a gorgeous collection with rich beautiful colors, it’s perfect for Project Life layouts.

The inside of the box has divider sections, I used two 4 x 6 and two 3 x 4 but it fits three 3 x 4 and one 4 x 6 also, I can’t wait to fill this up.

These roses, also from Lori’s shop go together so beautifully, they are all individual petals, I colored mine with distress ink and some glimmer mist.  For the little white flowers I used one from the 5 layering flowers set, duplicating one layer.  The lighter green leaves you can find at the Silhouette online Store and the darker green come with the roses.  The key and tag are from the Reflections 6 x 12  chipboard accents and the pearls are in the decorative brads set that match.  I also used some crochet ribbon and Orangesicle Trendy Twine.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you’ve enjoyed my project, you can visit me at http://www.brigitsscraps.com.

Thanks Brigit, next we have this adorable mini album by Christine.

One of the first classes I ever taught in scrapbooking was a mini album class. We used paper bags.  Remember those?  Well, whatever materials I use, mini books always hold a special place in my heart.  They’re just so little and cute.  So I am always thrilled when Lori puts another mini album file in the store. The mini album I am showing you today is called the 4×4 Accordion Envelope Mini Album.

Everything you need is right there in the file.  She has even duplicated some of the pieces so you don’t have to.  I got a little stumped on how to put it together, but no worries there.  I knew that I just had to go to her YouTube channel and watch her assembly video.  I love that she makes videos for all of her files that are “some assembly required”!

Here is the inside of the mini album.  I love the many places to insert pictures or notes.  I decorate some of the envelopes with patterned paper from Lori’s new Reflections paper collection and added a fun die cut border as well, called 2 borders.

Another shot of the last couple of envelopes and the end page.  The outside cover, both front and back are attached to the front and end page and are made up of chipboard and patterned paper.  It really gives the mini book a sturdy base and feel.

There are so many ways to complete this album.  If you think that this is too short in pages, just remember, all you need to do is cut more pages and you can make it as long as you like.

Cascading Album by Traci and a Layout by Mendi

Today we have 2 fabulous projects to share. Traci has created one of the Cascading Albums and Mendi has an adorable layout.
Happy Monday everyone!
I am glad to be back sharing another project with you today!  If you know me, or have ever been to my blog, you know that I’m a huge fan of mini albums.  They are my favorite project and I love the fact that Lori has so many wonderful options in her shop.  So for today’s project, I used one of Lori’s Tiered albums with a bracket edge.  I also used brand new papers and embellishments that Lori designed for Echo Park called Reflections.  Oh my goodness what a fabulous collection!!
For the title of my album, I used Lori’s Family Memories phrase.  This new paper collection is perfect for older family photos or more recent ones — I just love the colors!
I wanted to add a fold-up card piece to one of the album pages, so I cut out Lori’s Hinges to give the card more interest.  Depending on the size you make your hinges, you can add brads to the holes, or use a little bling like I did 🙂
Finally, to add to the vintage feel of my album, I added a fancy frame.  I just love how the frame looks with some gems added for sparkle!
I have posted additional photos of this album over on my blog today, so I hope you’ll stop by and check them out.
Thanks for letting me share with you!!

Thanks Traci! Here is Mendi’s beautiful layout!
Mendi here today sharing a layout which uses Echo Park’s Here & Now collection (one of my favorite collections of Lori’s) and a number of her fun SVG cutting files.


To form my title block, I layered 5 different cutting files of Lori’s.  I had some old (OLD) Autumn Leaves ticket stamps which I paired with Lori’s ticket shape.  I also mixed things up a bit by removing the shadow from the “Spring Is Here” title and enlarging the word Spring and moving the words to two separate lines to fit on my label.


I created a second grouping to form the second point in my visual triangle using Lori’s layered flower, pennant and a matching sticker from the collection kit.  I added a pearl brad and some foam tape for my flower to add a little interest.


Lori’s tabs with the date was just what I needed to finish my visual triangle (and remind me where to file this one away in the albums when I finally get around to it).  😉

To complete my layout I used the following cutting files designed by Lori:
