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....

Gorgous Leaves Bundle Revisited

Yestday's Freebie Friday on a Monday projects were so fun and this set is SO BEAUTIFUL in it's simplicity!  It reminds me of a long-retired stamp set from Stampin Up!.  I was inspired to re-create the projects that I made with it once upon a time.  So here we go.... SIMPLE projects when you need a quick "hello" or an even quicker heartfelt sympathy card: I was DEFINITELY on a Bumblebee and Cajun Craze kick yesterday!  I can't stop/won't stop!  LOL!  To be fair... I had extra leaves die cut and didn't want anything to go to waste!  A quick speckle backdrop in Bumblebee then a quick "hello" greeting from the Biggest Wish in Cajun Craze with the Cajun Craze leaf popped up on a Basic White cardbase.  PERFECTION! Okay, as with yesterday's projects, the sentiment is from the recently retired SAB Delicate Dahlia's set, but you could use ANY sympathy sentiment you have in your stash.  Unlike in the past when I had to mask off the center rectangle...

There's No Place Like Home

 Graphic 45's Magic of Oz arrived at Paper Vineyard last week and this week the design team had a BLAST playing with all the goodies!!!  I took a cue from my new blog friend Barb and used a scrapbook layout she completed as inspiration for my project.  The simplicity of using up those mini-scraps is just BEYOND brilliant.  She is the newest of the MANY talented blog friends I have, so don't be surprised if you see me saying her name A LOT!!!  Her talent is out of this world and TOTALLY up my alley [thanx for the card Barb, it is WONDERFUL]!!! So, of course, I used Copics for this project.  LOTS of E40's and R20's and finished up with YG20's... with a little Y18 and Y00 thrown in to make the cat tails and the shiny doorknob.  For some reason, my shadowing lightened A LOT on this pic, so I'm going to try and take another pic in better lighting and re-post.  Hopefully I can show this a little better.  For some reason, I've been sucking with m...
