Explosion Box

Here's another project from my stamp club last week. It's an Explosion Box! It would make the prefect Mothers Day gift, Fathers Day gift, Birthday gift, or just because. Click here for the tutorial.  I have not filled mine up with pictures yet, but I plan to soon!  I will post the finished photo box once it's complete! 

Tag Post-it Note Holder

I got this idea from a blog I follow called Chic' n Scratch. I love her blog, she always has such great ideas. I used the Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge from Close to My Heart to cut the tag to make this project! I love the Cricut cartridge!!!   These make such cute little gifts. 

I host a Stamp Club once a month at my house and the ladies each get to make 3 "make and take" projects.  This was one of the projects they made at last weeks club. 

Crazy for the Cricut "Art Philosophy Collection"

Cutting shapes, flowers, cards, fonts, and more is a breeze with Close to My Heart's Cricut "Art Philosophy cartridge". Simply plug the cartridge into your Cricut machine (sold at retail stores) and you're ready to cut any of the 700 shapes with the touch of a button!

Mojo Monday 229

A little late posting my Mojo Monday challenge.  But as they say, "better late than never".  I have enjoyed participating in the Mojo Monday challenge, because it makes me make time to papercraft and create! 

Makes a nice keepsake

I made these framed hand prints of the kids for my husbands birthday. I used Close to My Heart ink for the hand prints, Close to My Heart Cardstock and Tiny Typewriter Alphabet stamp set (D1222) for the names and date we made them.  I have the kids pictures taken every year for thier birthday, so I used a wallet size and punched it out with a circle punch.  This way we can look back at what they looked like when they made this project.    What a nice keepsake to keep in the family!  Have fun and remember, Stamp Happy!
