Mini Snowflake Journal

Hi everyone! I'm back this week with my second project of the month for Momenta and I thought since Christmas is oh so close I would create a micro journal with a leftover needle book diecut that I had cut out in leather. Also have you been by Hobby Lobby and seen all of Momenta's newest Christmas/Holiday diecuts and embossing folders?!?!? If not you need to make a special trip just to get some of these fabulous diecuts and embossing folders!

As I stated I had a leftover needle book diecut that I had cut from leather and I decided I wanted to try and use part of the Let it Snow embossing folder and the snowflake diecut to emboss the leather. I spritzed the areas that I was going to emboss/add diecut with water and placed the bottom edge of the journal and the belly band into the embossing folder (emboss snowflakes only) and run through the Diecut Machine. I completed the same steps for the snowflake diecut too. For people that don't have access to leather or would like to created this journal out of cardstock the size is 5"x3 5/8".

In the spine I added a total of four eyelets with the Crop-A-Dil. I ran the Hot Pink Elastic through the eyelet holes and the belly band and tied off.

Then I cut a piece of patterned cardstock from the Peony Paper Pad to 3 1/8"x4" and several piece of notebook paper slightly smaller than the cover. I punched two holes in the spine and sewed the notebook paper inside of the cover.

I punched out a Scalloped Circle from the same paper pad and adhered to the front of the notebook and cut a snowflake diecut out and added to the scalloped circle along with a sequin and gem.

I also cut four star diecuts out and adhered them back to back at the ends of the twine that I had tied off inside of the notebook and added a gem to the center of each one.

 I hope you have enjoyed this project as much as I enjoyed creating it! If you have any questions please let me know.

Cheers! Box

Hi everyone! I'm back today with my project for Momenta! Since I have several upcoming birthdays I decided I would created a gift box.

I started by taking a part a small box that I had on hand. I folded in one section and place in the embossing folder from the Happy Birthday Stamp and Emboss Set and run through the Freestyle Die Cutting and Embossing Machine. I completed the same steps for the other side of the box. 

I glued the box back together and inked over the embossed areas with an assortment of chalk inks.

I cut and adhered a piece of patterned cardstock from the Watercolor Metallic Paper Pad to fit the lid of the box.

I stamped the sentiment "Cheers!" from the Happy Birthday Stamp and Emboss Set and placed one of the Nested Oval Borders Metal Diecuts over the sentiment and cut out with the diecut machine.

I cut another oval diecut out from another piece of patterned cardstock from the same paper pad and glued to the back of the sentiment. I also stamped a party hat onto a piece of White Cardstock and fussy cut out. 

I added Foam Pop Dots to the back of the diecut and placed on top of the lid. 

I added to the party hat and a flower and leaf punch (from my stash) sequins and a gems before gluing to the sentiment. If you have any questions about this project please let me know. Also if you aren't following Momenta you can find them on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest and YouTube.

Spooky Pumpkin Treat Baggie

Hi everyone and Happy Halloween! I wanted to hop on and share a quick treat holder I created!

I started by cutting a bag using the Treat Bag Diecut and putting it together according the directions on the packaging.

I cut out three pieces of the madallion diecuts that I had purchased from Coco and Reno and put together. I added that and a scrap skull border to the top portion of the bag.

I fussy cut a jack-o-lantern and adhered that along with three circle punches and a spooky sticker on top of the medallion. I finished off by adding several loops of green metallic thread behind the circle punches. Just add some candy and a clothes pin and it is ready to give to your favorite trick or treater! As always if you have any questions please let me know.

Hope You have a Purr-fect Day Card

Hi everyone! I'm back today to share a quick card I created using cardstock scraps that I had laying around from other projects and a leftover printable from Lisa's Altered Art and you can find the printable HERE. The base of the card is 6 1/4"x4" folded piece of patterned cardstock.

I placed the bits and pieces of all the different patterned cardstocks and doily that I had and adhered to the card base. The girl with the cats was a leftover printable that I thought would be a "purr-fect" addiction to the card. 😆

I used a flower and leaf sprig diecut from the Flowers and Leaves Journaling Cards Diecuts and added to the card along with a sequin and gem to the center of the flower. I added loops of thread behind the girl and cat image. And I finished by printing a sentiment from my computer. As always if you have any questions about this project please let me know.

Finding Happiness Pocket Notebook

Hi everyone! I want to share my other journal I created for Eileen Hull for her trip to the UK in September using her newest Pocket Notebook Diecut.

First I gathered up an assortment of Maggie Holmes cardstock Collections to create this journal. Then I applied Adhesive Sheets to the front and back of Matboard before placing cardstock on the front and back of the matboard.

I placed the Pocket Notebook Diecut on top of the matboard and run through the Diecut Machine. I cut two covers out.

I lined up the holes on the spine where only three holes showed both on the top and bottom and adhered together. I cut cardstock to fit both the inside and outside of the spine. I used a Crop A Dile to punch holes and set eyelets in the spine. I also added the elastic cording and tied off inside the spine.

I used the Nestled Borders Rectangles Diecut, stickers, pom pom trim, heart and gem and a couple of flowers and a leaf from Eileen's Flowers and Leaves Journaling Cards Diecuts to decorate the cover of the journal. If you haven't checked out the rest of the Inspiration Team's projects on Eileen's blog you can find those posts: HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE. As always if you have any questions about this project please let me know.

Genuine Vintage Pocket Notebook

Hi everyone! I want to share this Vintage Baseball Pocket Notebook I create for Eileen to take on her trip to the UK. Also I thought why not share since the World Series will be starting soon.

I applied Adhesive Sheets to both sides of the Mat Board, placed the cardstock on both sides, run through the Diecut Machine and I cut two covers out. 

Also the cardstock I used is from Authentique, it's retired and I can't find the package to tell you what the name of the collection is...sorry. 😔 I added a "one of a kind" journaling card from the same collection to the cover. And I fussy cut from another journaling card two baseball players which I adhered one player to the front corner of the cover and added three black gems to each corner of the one of the "one of a kind" journaling card .

The back of the journal I adhered the other baseball players and a couple of  banners to the lower corner.

I lined the last hole up on the spine and adhered together. For a more finished look I cut another piece of wood patterned cardstock and adhered to the spine and set Eyelets in each of the holes.

I ran the elastic cording through the button holes and the middle holes on the spine and tied off. I did add a little adhesive to the back of the button to keep it from sliding around.

I ran elastic cording through the holes on the spine and tied off inside the cover. There is eight elastic bands that can hold journals.

I forgot to add that I applied an adhesive sheet to the back of piece of cardstock and then I cut the word "journal" out from the Journaling Words Diecuts and placed it at the top of the journal cover. There you have it a completed journal cover and all that needs to be added is notebooks. Be sure to hop on over to Eileen Hull's blog to see what the rest of her Inspiration Team has created! You can find this month's posts: HERE, HERE and HERE. As always if you have any questions please let me know.
