It's A Great Day For A White Wedding

It has been sooooo long since I've designed with the wonderful ladies of Paper Vineyard's design team!  Getting back on the designing wagon has suddenly come so easy to me over the past couple of days or so... I've been designing up a storm.  Part of the reason for the sudden burst of creativity came from this little gem pictured below!  Just a little warning here... this post is VERY pic heavy!!!

 Yep!  It's the DCWV Immortal Love stack I told you all about the other day (inspired by the Twilight Saga movies).  So with Breaking Dawn coming out later this year, the Wedding theme for today's challenge over at Paper Vineyard was SUPER easy.  I can clearly imagine what wedding goodies Edward and Bella would put together, what their wedding colors would be, etc.  Well, now you can see how this one just sort of made itself!  hahahahahahha!

So my creation is the CD jacket for a wedding photo compilation; the template is pictured above. This would make a wonderful keepsake for special guests at any wedding or to attach to the inside back cover of a wedding album.  Using the Martha Stewart scoring board, I scored a 7 x 10" paper vertically at the 1" mark and the 6" mark.  I then scored horizontally at the 5" mark and trimmed the edges from 1/2 of the sheet, then folded the rest of the score lines to create the CD pocket.  I rounded corners using my Corner Chomper and punched a decorative edge along the front using an EK Success edge punch.  Prior to adhering my edges with red tacky tape for a strong hold, I glued the liner and the white cover using the Paper Vineyard's new SEI White Elegance wedding line.  Then, using my NEW (just bought last Friday on Competitor Coupon Day at Paper Vineyard) Spellbinders Fancy Tags Two I cut out the frame for the cover title and blinged it out with the coordinating Want 2 Scrap pearl accents made to fit this set PERFECTLY!!!  Finally, I printed and cut the title on vellum and embellished the CD jacket with red bling and miscellaneous ribbon.  Now for some fun....



Each backdrop for this CD jacket is a different page from my new Immortal Love paper stack (there are certainly more pages in the stack, I only photographed a few)... you can just imagine how beautiful this jacket would be as an addition to a mini book... just a thought!  LOL!


Ok folks... that does it for today.  Be sure to click on the link above for more design inspiration from the rest of the design team and we'll see you next week for more creative fun!

P.S. The first backdrop page is my favorite... which one is yours?

Past 7 Days....

BACK To Halloween.... WHEW!

Okay... BACK to Halloween gifting this week!  We're makin more goody boxes using The Cutest Halloween Bundle again this week, we are also featuring the tags and labels dies from the July - December 2021 Mini Catalog (lovingly dubbed "the holiday mini").  I've got to admit, this bundle really is the cutest and I'm having SOOOO much fun playing with it simply because of how easy it is to work with.  The fact that the punch ALSO punches out the images from the DSP makes this one a super-huge winner for me.  I mean.... three goody projects in under an hour!?!  That's right!  This week's Freebie Friday On A Monday was actually recorded in under 40 minutes!  SO DOABLE to get ready for Halloween gifting!  As always, the link to the free PDF with supplies used and measurements is below the last pic and if you place a $35 or more from my online store (click "Shop With Me" in the banner at the top of this blog) using this week's Host/Hostess code  GHRG

It's An Outrage.... ANOTHER Christmas Project Before Halloween??? You'll Thank Me!

 Okay you guys!  This is the last Words Of Cheer project for the week.  This one features the dies from the Bundle ( CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE ) and is CASED directly from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog page 20: I just reimagined the card pictured in the catalog as a box... but not just ANY box..... A CRACKER BARREL PECAN LOG ROLL BOX!!!! Here is the list of colors/cardstock used (except for the vellum, it is ALL from scraps... YAY): 1 3/4" x 4 5/8" Vellum, Pool Party, Very Vanilla, Soft Suede and Brushed Metallic Cardstock.  I finished this off with a scrap piece of linen thread even!  THIS is why we keep those scraps!  Honestly... nothing went to waste with this one.  Below is the video on how to make the box.  Normally I wouldn't be posting Christmas projects before Halloween, but COME ON.... this one is SOOOO worth the preview.  Besides, now you can get a head start for Christmas gifting.... PECAN LOG ROLLS FOR EVERYONE!!!
