Altered Coffee Sleeve Mini Album Swap

This mini album was for my partner in a vintage/shabby/Victorian garden themed swap using coffee sleeves you get from Starbucks or DD.

The primary paper collection used was Graphic 45's Secret Garden and Photo Play's Things to Remember.

The cover page is from the Photo Play, along with a sticker from the collection.  I used some trim from Walmart and a butterfly from my stash.

The next two pages are from the Secret Garden collection.  I used the stamps as small photo mats and cut out a piece of the collection to make a journaling spot.

The next two pages are from the Secret Garden collection.  I made a belly band and a small photo mat one page and another journaling spot on the other. 

The journaling spot pages are hot glued together to make pockets.

The next two pages are also from the Secret Garden collection.  I made a small pocket and stuck some tags in it.

The back cover page is a combo of both paper collections.

Used my Crop-O-Dile to punch the hole and a medium size ring to bind the album.  Decided not to use any fibers on the side since the album is a mini.

Had fun making this.  Hope my partner likes it.

Make it a crafty day.

Altered Paper Clips for Year Round Christmas Swap Group

I belong to a swap group that swaps Christmas projects year round.

These are altered paper clips.

I used rosettes for the bases and dug through my stash for the bits and bobs used for the embellishments.  I thought they needed a little more so I stamped some Christmas phrases from a stamp set from a UK stamping magazine and Tattered Lace stamps.

I hot glued everything down to make sure the clips stay secured.

Thanks for stopping by.

Make it a crafty day!

Easter Wreath Dollar Tree Crafts

This wreath was made with materials from the Dollar Tree.

Supplies needed:

14 inch wreath form

Deco mesh. (DT size is 5 inches wide with 15 yards on each roll.
I used 1 1/2 rolls of white, blue, pink and purple.

I also purchased 4 rolls of various Easter themed-ribbons.  The ribbons are cut at 9 inches and dove-tailed on the ends.  Each roll of ribbon has 3 yards on it.  I have about 1/4 roll of each ribbon left.

Pipe cleaners-  you will need 1/2 of a pipe cleaner for each "tube" bundle.  I have about 33 bundles.  You will also need a full pipe cleaner to attach to the back of the bunny.  I used 3.

Foam eggs-  the package had 12 in it.  I used 9.

Hot glue gun

Scissors and/or rotary cutter

Instructions:

Cut the mesh at 5 inches.  Roll into a tube.  Hold onto tube or use a clothespin to hold the tube.  Three (3) tubes make a bundle.  Use 1/2 pipe cleaner to hold bundle together and then put on wreath form.  I use the 2 middle rings.  If you are placing ribbon on the bundle, make it the same and add the ribbon facing you last.  I put a ribbon on every other bundle.

It will look like a hot mess until you are about half-way through and then it really comes together.

I then hot glue the pipe cleaners to the back of the bunny and attached it to the wreath.

I hot glued the foam eggs to the mesh and made 2 small ribbons for the bunny ears.

Embellishments For Paper Projects

These embellishments were for a Swap-Bot swap.

We had 3 partners and had to create 6 embellishments for each party.

My partners chose coffee, butterflies and vintage Christmas.

I got out my scraps and bits and bobs and put them on my table and came up with embellishments below.

Sometimes I do this just to get my creative mojo going again.  See what you can make from a few supplies.

I also have a process video on my YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ToE9Jxj5RbI
