I've been teaching classes on card making at my local scrapbook store and having a wonderful time doing it. I thought it was time to share what I have been teaching. If anyone would like the directions to any of the cards, please email me and I will gladly share.

Dec. was an Origami Tree Card - I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks on the card face, and stickled the star and edges of the tree and pot.

Jan. was an Origami Heart Card - I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pads on the Embossing folder, before embossing the card face.

Feb. was a Shamrock card with a masked background. Perfect Pearl Mists were used on the background over the mini shamrock masks.

Tomorrow is an Elegant Sympathy Card - Can also be used as a Birthday/Miss You or Think of You Card. Powder Puff Inks were used on the Chipboard Swirly Bird.

Stay tuned for April, it is an Origami Dress Card....Super Cute!!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a creative day!!

Projects and using scraps

We were having a car show at Jim Wroda Auctions where I work. The visitors were voting on "Best of Show" and the registration fees and any donations were benefiting "The Darke County Cancer Society." I need to make paint cans for the voting and donations. I used the "Stand & Salute" Cricut cartridge to make the ribbons and the "Storybook" cartridge for the Thank You And the ribbon was also from a cartridge, but I don't remember which one, sorry. All of the ribbons except for 2 were made using scraps that I had saved from other projects! WooHoo on Recycling!

The Cancer can:

Then I had all of these wonderful little rounded triangles left over and wondered what I could possibly do with them. Because I hate to throw useful scraps away....I know, Make Flowers!! I came up with this design, I inked the background with Tim Holtz Distress Inks and made the stem with the Sew Easy tool and stitched the stems with embroidery floss.

So Ladies, Save your scraps in an organized manner and use them when you can to make something beautiful! TTFN Jaci

Mother's Day Card

This is the card I made for my Mom for Mother's Day.

The beading and flowers are by Prima. I inked the patterned parer and card stock base with Tim Holtz Distress Inks. I used an orangy/peachy color dotted ribbon on the inside of the card. TTFN Jaci

Christmas Card Swap

Hello my fellow creators, I am trying something new. Taking step by step pics of my creations to share with you and hopefully teach you something new or help you remember to try a technique you used to use and haven't in a while.

I signed up at my local scrapbook store for a Christmas cards swap and this is my creation.

I chose the Olive colored cardstock from the DCWV stack and used the Cuttlebug and the Lace Tree folder to emboss them.

I then rubbed them with Peeled Paint Distress ink.

I tore around the images, and then inked the edges with the same ink pad.

I used 2 different Christmas papers and mounted the trees. I used Brown Kraft cardstock for the base.

I found these really cute little red ribbons with white pearls by Darice to use as my tree toppers.

I finished it off by adding accents with my Viva Pearl Pens. These things are awesome. You can place your dots on your creation or you can make them on wax paper, let them dry and pel them off and use. You can also color them with you Copics!

My choice of adhesive when I am working with an embossed paper is the Tombow Mono liquid glue. It does an great job at getting in the nooks and cranies of the embossing.
Hope you enjoyed my creation, please comment or email me at scrapjaci@yahoo.com
