I'm a bit late, but I'm jumping on the banner bandwagon! Who wouldn't if you had the super-cute stencil from the "
Come Sail Away" Jr kit.
Here's a look at one card I made:
While you're making one card, it's always better to make two! I just did everything twice, and played with some die cut flowers to embellish the cards up a bit. On this card, I stapled the ends of the twine to the card.

I have a fascination with pockets in books. They are great for holding things (like CDs or programs) and make the book interactive. Here's the cover of a new book I recently made:
Here's a close-up of the niche - the cover is made from foam core board, so it was super easy to cut a window into it:
Open it up, and every other page is a pocket! I put some white "pages" inside the pocket,

Who couldn't use a few extra cards for those occasions that pop up? Even better than having a few cards is having a box to put them in. It makes these perfect for gift giving, and great to put on your desk. I had a lot of fun making these two boxes. I had a request to share more details, so here you go - the stamps and kit are still available from Club Scrap if you're inspired to make your

This project is from Club Scrap's Share the Love event. The
stamps and
project are still available.
The project made two boxes filled with greeting cards in a lovely neutral color palette. Cards make great gifts - everyone can always use a special card, and who doesn't love saving a trip to the store for a last minute card?
One of the things I love about Club Scrap project is starting with

Ever since CS switched to PDF files, I've been excited (more room for supplies!) and a bit anxious (how will I organize these new fangled things?). Since I've been organzing strictly with paper in my cute little CS binders, how would I cope?
Since CS changed the size of the stamp sheets, and I have no desire to print more things to store, I have completely gone digital, and I've described my

Ever since Club Scrap went green, I've been trying to figure out the best way to collect and organize these files. I really, really, don't want to print them.
I've found a solution that is working really well for me, and I've been talking about it in a series on my blog. The bullet lists don't come over here very well, so take a look at my "other" blog to find out...
1. Why I'm going green - there

My sweetie and I have exchanged valentine's cards for another year. His featured quilled hearts on Club Scrap paper.
Mine featured stamping, misting, and masking. I loved using the newest stamps from Club Scrap! In case you missed it, I have some videos on showing how I
made the mask, and
inked the panels.
My whole card used pink paper from Club Scrap, and some in color cardstock from

I just loved the calendar sheet from the Navajo kit. I decided to make something that I could display, and since it's dated, I'd better do it now!

If you've been following my blog for a while, you know that Paul and I exchange home made cards for most special occasions. This Christmas was no exception. Paul made me a lovely quilled card - I think this is the first large snowflake he has made.
He called this a simplistic design, but I think it's pretty special and intricate. The green panel has die cut openings and is popped up to

When I made my set of cards for Club Scrap using the
Tilescapes kit, I decided to play with ribbon and made this ruffled border on this card. (Check out the rest of the Tilescapes cards in the
Club Scrap Scrap Rap)
I wanted to see how this might work for a holiday card using the WOW cards and stamps - surprise, it does!:
I had a few folks ask me how I did the border, and it couldn't be
