Eeeeeeeek~~~!!! Is this for real?!!!?!!! Do you see my name on this gorgeous product preview?!!! Eeeek~!!!! I collaborated with Danielle Young and created this template. It’s a wine box. I was inspired by cocktail glass elements from Danielle’s here’s to you page kit. She is an amazing designer. Look at how she made my templates and samples look good. I almost cried when I looked at this preview. THANK YOU DANIELLE!

You can put 8 Hershey’s Nuggets inside.

I’ve been having so much fun playing with Kelleigh‘s templates, I wanted to create hybrid templates, too. THANK YOU KELLEIGH for all your support!

Gosh~ I wish I’m more articulate than this. It sucks when I can’t express my gratitude well.

Here I used digital elements from Danielle’s Here’s To You Page Kit to decorate the box.

Heehee. You can even put chocolate liqueurs inside.

Sometimes, I like to think outside the box. And, I decided to make a freight truck with the wine box template. =)

Print one template for the truck head. Score. Cut it into three pieces as shown. Left and Right pieces are 1.25″ wide.

Combining outer two pieces together. Joining at the matching sides in the middle.

Fold the sides.

Glue two trapezoid shapes together to create the L shape.

Cut out the excess. I used an x-acto knife. =)

Tuck it in the box. Oops~ Do you see the cut line on top? I accidentally cut it short and had to glue/tape it back on, heehee.

Added a folded piece of paper to make a chimney. I ended up gluing the gaps (on top) together, so it won’t look too puffy.

Flip unused panels/taps under the truck head.

Cut the sides off. Add adhesive (foam dots).

Attach the wine box on top. Add the wheels. I used the button elements from Here’s To You Kit.

You can purchase the Here’s To You Wine Box Template Set at Oscraps.com. =)

Leave a comment here, and I’ll RANDOMLY pick ONE person and giveaway my template set.
(It’s downloadable PDF and JPG files. No physical products.)

happy birthday mini album

Number of View: 744

I made another 4×4 mini album, inspired by Susanna’s Paper Craft Planet 3D Tuesday Challenge: Time Flies (Indeed!!!). She created a PSD file for you to download to create the similar album (calendar book) on her blog.

I’ve seen a lot of these triangle banners used on scrapbook layouts, and wanted to try.

I like the roughness of the eyelets’ back view. =)

Printed on Red River Paper (60 lb. River Linen). I received A LOT of inkjet printer paper samples from the Red River Paper the other day, and I LOVE IT. I love the thickness for my hybrid projects, and it printed beautifully.

Digital kit: Cupcake Celebration Mini Kit by Danielle Young.
FREE with purchase of $5.00 or more of Danielle’s designs at Oscraps. PLUS, nearly her entire store is on sale for 28% off!
She created this kit to celebrate her birthday.

HAPPY BIRTHDY DANIELLE! How I wish I’m as young as you are! =)

Woodland Whisper – a camping trailer

Number of View: 1609

Isn’t this cute or what! Heehee. I made another vehicle with Kelleigh‘s Mini Mailbox template (small size). It’s a camping trailer.

Initially, I was going to make a house, but these woodland animals inspired me to make a camping trailer instead.

Where did these animals come from?

It’s a brand new collaboration digital kit, “Woodland Whisper“ by Danielle Young Designs and Kitty Designs.

A large white brad for the window.

I used a binder clip for the connector(?)

Used the frosted plastic for the windows.

Hmm… I guess I better make a truck to go with this. =)

Thanks!

i am a rockstar

I’m super excited to be a Guest Rockstar Stamper for my favorite stamp company, Lizzie Anne Designs. Woohoo!

Thanks to LAD for letting me play with their newest stamp set, A Little Love. It is very adorable stamp set and will be passed down from generation to generation. Okie… my son and daughter will have to fight who will get to keep this one, heehee.

Digital Paper (outside): Park Avenue Kit by Danielle Young (Do you want a chance to win $20 to her store? Check this out! =)

Stamped images can turn into a beautiful jewerly! =)
Digital paper (pink inside): A Little Love by Lizzie Anne Designs

I wasn’t really sure what I wanted to put in the heart basket even after I printed and cut the template out. But, I had a chance to talk with a TheDigiChick CT, Sinead about paper flowers, and got totally motivated to create these flowers. This time I used the ribbons instead of the papers. I wanted to make more flowers, but only had 3 lollipops, heehee. Tied with pink waxy floss. A big thanks to Sinead for giving me the inspiration!

Heeheehee. Isn’t she a cutie!

Digital papers: A Little Love by Lizzie Anne Designs
Album template: Princess Freestyle Album Template Set by Kelleigh Razlaff Designs. I used Pazzles Inspiration Electronic Cutter to cut the castles.

Bookbinding technique learned from Journals 3 Ways workshop by Karla Dudley.

My daugher, Bailey thinks the Little Love Princess is adorable, too.
Stickers: Heidi Grace
Coloring: Tombow Markers on watercolor paper

And here, I used heart sprouts stamp from the January Monthly Mix (From the Heart).

The tree and the bird shapes are from Melissa Wilson and were cut with the Pazzles. It’ll be available at theDigiChick this Thursday. Thanks Melissa for letting me work with your creation!

And another big thanks to Heidi Sonboul for letting me play with the GCD papers!

Papers: Artsy Urban by Melody Ross and Zen Garden Collection from GCD Studios

I cut the green pom pom in half to create the turf. Very soft and cushiony soccer field. =)

A mini Play-Doh holder.
