almost square bag and matchbook album

Number of View: 1565

I love making things in small sizes. Perhaps it’s because I’m petite. Even though I hate people calling me shorty, I guess I’m comfortable in my tiny suit (I just watched Iron Man movie, heehee) and tend to adore miniature stuff.

Anyway, did I mention I love making mini albums?

I’ve just released a mini matchbook album and an almost square bag templates. It’s 20% off this weekend only. =)

Matchbook Album (Updated link)

Almost Square Bag (Updated link)

The front flap has tabs on the side to close. Hmmm… It looks more like a box now that I’m looking at it. Guess I’ll add some straps on the side to make it look more like a bag.

It can hold 3×3 mini cards with matching envelopes.

Matchbook Album can also fit inside.

Digital embellishments: Inchies by ON Designs

I’ll give away both templates to the first person to comment on this post.

UPDATE: Thanks, JO! I’ll email you the coupon code shortly.

THANK YOU~~~

Heeheehee. I love creating projects that make me laugh “keekeekee” while I’m working on it. Starving Artistamp’s DoodleFactory Collections make me laugh just looking at the stamps. This month, I’m a guest design team for the Starving Artistamps, and you’ll see a lot more of their little creatures here, heehee.

At first, I was thinking, “can you dig it?” means “can you enjoy it?”. But, I did a little research, and it means, “do you understand it????”. So I crossed out the word, “DIG” and wrote, “EAT”.

I used Mini Album Stand with A Drawer template for the treat wrapper. These are Congo Bars and got the recipe from Bakerella.

Do you see the earring on Cappie?

Stamps: Creatures I (Cookie jar), Creatures II (Cappie) from Starving Artistamp’s DoodleFactory Collections

recharged tractor

Hello everybody~! Hope all you had a wonderful Mother’s Day. My son made me breakfast for me. He told me I could sleep in till 10 am, but he woke me up at 8. Normally, I would tell him, “5 more minutes!!!”, but I couldn’t say that when he was excited to make me his favorite breakfast foods. I can’t wait to show him what I’ve made (for me)! I’m sure he won’t care for the tractor, but he’ll be happy to see the little Reese’s candy sitting on it.

Digital scrapbook kit: Recharged by Danielle Young Designs

It’s the latest kit by danielle and on sale this weekend. Cute huh~! When I saw the gadgets, I had to make the tractor.

Printed with my Bumper Car template, using .5″ chair template for the top chair, and .75″ chair for the bottom, stack (glue) the bottoms together. Reduced the length of the car body by .5″ in Photoshop.

Used a scrap piece of cardboard for the bottom to connect the chair and the engine.

I should’ve glued it together after attaching the rear wheels. I had to un-glue everything, add the wheels, then glue it back.

Lollipop sticks for the wheel connectors. Clear round stickers on the wheels.

Clear liquid glue on the “push” steering wheel.

Ta-da~!

Heeheehee. Sorry to post this so late. Here is the winner for $20 Red River Paper gift certificate. Order #79765 (Diana T.) I’ll email you shortly! Thank you and all who have purchased my templates! THANK YOU~~~

Hmmm… Where did the candy go?

Hi!

I made a piercing tool, needle, sanding block holder with Bumper Car template.

Modified the width on the chair template to fit the sanding block.

Using the modified chair, drew the box on the car body template.

Score and cut.

Double sided adhesive on the bottom of the chair to attach to the car.

Lily from Pink Cat Studio. I bought Lily and Billy stamp sets from 7 Kids College Fund last September. And, I finally got to play with the stamps, heehee.

I’m a big procrastinator! I meant to post this 8 months ago, heeheehee. I ordered 5 sheets of THIN EZ Mounts, and 7 Kids College Fund sent me the THICK mounting foams instead. I used to like the thick ones when I first started to stamp. But, I much prefer the thin ones now. Tab from 7 Kids sent me the replacement and let me keep the thick mounts. I told her I would give it away on my blog.

So…

I will send these THICK EZ Mounting Foams to first TWO people to leave comments here.

1st person – I’ll send 3 EZ Mounts (US and Canada ONLY, please! =)

2nd person – I’ll send 2 EZ Mounts

Thanks Jessica and Corinne!

Purchase my kit(s) at AfterFiveDesigns between now till 5/10/2010 9pm EST, and I’ll randomly pick ONE customer and give away $20 Red River Paper gift certificate!

THANK YOU~~~

rolodex style album

Number of View: 1459

Hi there!

Here I used the album inserts (version 2) from the Mini Album Stand with A Drawer template to create this rolodex style album (Couldn’t really find a good name for this project, heehee)

First, the winners for my giveaways…

Cristina won $10 gift certificate to Kelleigh Ratzlaff Designs.

Adriana won two hybrid templates from my store.

THANK YOU ALL!!!

I’m also giving my templates to Corinne because she was the first one to congratulate me on my post (heehee), AND she sent me $50 gift certificate to Red River Paper. Because she wanted to pay me for de-cluttering MY crafting room. Heehee. THANK YOU Corinne!

Here is the basic assembly for the Mini Album Stand with a Drawer template.

This is the album stand. Print, score, cut, and fold.

After putting it together (good thing I didn’t use the strong adhesive), I decided to decorate it with some eyelets.

Mark the holes where the eyelets will go in.

Open it up. Punch the holes out.

Put eyelets to decorate.

Print, score, cut, and fold the album covers. Small one goes on the front. The one on the bottom goes in the side (if you decide to make an album instead of a box).

This is the version 1 for the album inserts.

(TIF file comes with layered masks for you to drop digital papers/elements and photos)

Put the adhesive on the side panels and attach the album inserts.

This is for using one strip of album insert.

Glue the end panels together to connect multiple inserts.

Tada~

Attach it to the album cover.

If you want to glue the inserts to the spine…

Stretch the spine with a bone folder or a pen by holding the one end of paper and with a bone folder rub/stretch on the spine. This way, you won’t get hard crease when you open the album.
