Gifts by Corri and a layout by Amanda

Today Corri is here sharing a beautiful card and purse set. She always does such a great job. Corri says…

I have a cute card and gift bag that I made using the Echo Park – For the Record 2 Documented collection that Lori designed. 

For my card I layered some of the pattern papers and a doily that I purchased in the baking section at my local craft store.  I cut two butterflies using my Cameo from Lori’s 3 butterflies files.   I embossed the yellow one with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dot folder and added some glitter to the turquoise one. 

For the little gift bag, I cut the party purse and added a pretty layered flower from this set.

This would be a great little thank you gift or a little pick me up for a friend.  You could up some sweet treats or a gift card in the little bag. 

Next I have a beautiful layout by Amanda, it even uses pictures of Amanda, isn’t she beautiful! I added the black borders for our sake to see the edges of the layout. Amanda says…

I created this layout using the Love Story line by Echo Park and Valentine’s banners, valentine’s embellishments, and love tickets.

Digital Goodies by Heather and Lisa

Today at Jessica Sprague Lori has a new kit available, Valentine Brushes. This kit will be on sale at Jessica Sprague through the weekend, so be sure and grab it while it is on sale. These brushes are great for both Valentine projects as well as a way to showcase things you love, like Heather did.  She created this beautiful layout. Heather said …

I wanted to use the Valentine Brushes in an unexpected way, so I used them to scrap about my favorite season… Spring. There’s just something about Spring that makes me happy. Warmer weather, brighter colors, and let’s not forget the fabulous flowers! It’s no wonder that Spring makes me smile.

Lisa also created an adorable project using these brushes.  I love what these 2 have done. Lisa says…

I created a pocket card filled with heart shaped confetti using Lori’s new Valentine brushes and her Kiss Me papers and elements. Come see my blog for tips on how to recreate this project for a Valentine’s Day card or your Valentine Project Life layout.

 

Christmas Traditions with Mendi

Today Mendi has an adorable layout showcasing her Christmas traditions. Thanks for giving us a sneak peek.

Mendi says, “For this layout I had so much fun using Lori’s shapes in unexpected ways to work perfectly for me.  I was able to transform a Valentine’s day border and give it a Christmas spin.  For my title, I pieced together three of Lori’s separate titles to create a completely new phrase to match what I had envisioned in my head.  Lastly I took a basic label shape and enlarged it to serve as my page background.  It’s so rewarding when you can get extra mileage out of the shapes you’ve purchased!  I hope I have inspired you to play with your cutting files and look at them in a new light.” 

 

As always Mendi, this is beautiful. Be sure to check out her blog as she has pictures and info on her blog.
