November 2011 Jessica Sprague Projects

I am so late posting these projects on my blog for November's Jessica Sprague Creative Team Projects.  November brought a bunch of new designers like Pink Paislee.  I was beyond excited when I found out Pink Paislee was coming to Jessica Sprague and I was going to have the ability to work with their products.  Here is what I came up with!

October 2011 Projects

Hey.. Here are some of my projects for October for the Jessica Sprague Creative Team.  The first is a flash card memory game using the A to Z Flash Cards by Samantha Walker Designs that will be joining the JS team on 10/10/11. 

 The next two projects are something really dear to my heart and I am hoping this method is going to work for what I am envisioning long term.  I purchased two Smash Books from HSN last week to use to store my childrens' school stuff.  I wanted to have it somewhere in some what of an organized manner so they had it later on!  I used the A to Z Frames and Things and printed them out and cut them out and distressed them.  I then used them to embellish the cover page of the smash book for Aiden.

For the following project, I did everything on the computer in photoshop using the A to Z Patterned Paper pack to make this folder to store Aiden's school work.  I then printed it and cut it to fit the folder. I then adhered the folder to the page and added the school work with some embellishments.

Thanks for stopping by to check out these projects! Stay tuned for more posts about my smash books.

July Layouts

Hey everyone,

Here are the rest of my July projects for Jessica Sprague.com creative team. 
Just click on the project to be taken back to the Jessica Sprague site for the product details!

Stay Tuned for a more detailed post on this last project. This shadow box project was made from scratch using card stock and one piece of chipboard to hold it together in the back.  The pictures were edited to fit in photoshop and then a few embellishments were added and voila! Stay tuned!


Thanks for stopping by... Cannot believe July is already over! Have a great first day of August tomorrow! =)

JS Creative Team Projects

I was pretty busy this weekend working on some Jessica Sprague Creative Team Projects. I am so excited that I was able to create some things that I had envisioned and watched tutorials on.

The first are these Crumply Paper Flower Embellishments. I watched a tutorial on Dawn McVey's blog and had to try these out with the Echo Park Be Mine Valentine Paper Pack available at JessicaSprague.com. These were actually really easy tomake and very inexpensive since I printed the digital papers on regular computer paper. It crumpled up nicely. :)


Next up is a Hybrid Valentine's Day Card and Matching Envelope. Again these cards and envelopes are using the Echo Park Be Mine Paper Pack. I created a 8.5 x 11 canvas in photoshop and added my papers in stripes of 1 inch wide. I then printed and ran the sheet through my cuttlebug and the Top Note Die by Stampin Up. Once cut, I adhered a stamped sentiment using the Papertrey Ink Simple Valentine's Stamp Set, attached a crumply flower and called it a day. I also took some left over paper that was printed to adhere to the envelope and stamped some hearts from the same Papertrey Ink Stamp Set.


Next up is a Family Themed Memory Card Game I created for my kids. I created another template on photoshop and clipped pictures of each family member twice into the template. I then printed them on my home photo printer. I also took the same template and clipped different papers into from Jessica Sprague's Site and then printed that on cardstock. I attached both sheets together and cut each "card" out. I rounded the corners with the Corner Chomper and stamped the word "family" on the front of each card using Technique Tuesday's Ali Edwards Family Circle Stamp. I am hoping the kids enjoy these and learn as they "play".


As always, remember to visit Jessica Sprague's site and get your hands on some yummy digi goodies and start creating today!

Valentine's Day Garlands

Another Monday and another release at JessicaSprague.com. This project is created by using Elle's Studio's XOXO Paper Pack that will be available on Monday January 24, 2011.

I printed a few papers out on regular computer paper and cut them in to stripes of various sizes ranging from 1 inch to 2 inches. I then folded the stripes in half and punched a hole at the fold. I then strung some ribbon through and glued the two ends together to "form" a heart. These are going to make the perfect Valentine's Decorations to my "not so pretty cubicle" at work.





Thanks for looking and don't forget to hit up Jessica's site for more digi goodies on Monday January 24, 2011... you never know what you will fall in love with! :)

Hybrid Projects

Just wanted to share a few hybrid projects I did this month ... getting ready for Christmas. I was hoping to get these posted earlier in the month but the holidays just came up so fast that I never got around to it. In any case.. here they are now.

This first one is a Fringe Christmas Tree using the All I Want for Christmas Papers by Echo Park. I printed them on good quality presentation paper, cut them into stripes and then used my Martha Stewart Fringe Scissors to make the different layers of the tree. Once that was completed, I just added adhesive to my paper stripes and adheared them to the cone tree shape. Embellished it with a snowflake and button and twin and called it a day. These papers are just so lovely that I really didn't feel the need to embellish further.


The next project were some gift tags using the Elle's Studio Christmas Papers. I cut the tags using a sizzix die and my cuttlebug and then embellished with some Christmas Tags stamps from Papertrey Ink and some gems. Added some ribbon and called it a day.

Thanks for stopping by! I am hoping to get some of my December Daily Pages posted soon!

Hey everyone,

Here is my next submission for the Jessica Sprague Creative Team. These are two cards I created using Linda Roos' Madarine Breeze Paper Pack. Other products used are Stampin Up Cardstock, Ribbon, Hero Arts Stamps and Inks, and Foam Adhesive.

Hope you enjoy.. leave a comment and let me know what you think!

Creative Team Submission...

Just wanted to let you all know, I just submitted 3 hybrid projects to the Jessica Sprague Creative Team Search. I love Jessica's products and all of her classes and all she and her website have to offer. I have learned a lot just from her beginner digital scrapbooking class and still have two more in the series to complete.

Her call was out for projects, digital, hybrid or both. Since she made it easy to see what others were submitting by making the a CT Search gallery on her site, I instantly knew I had to submit Hybrid Projects. Most of the enteries were digital scrapbook pages. I have gotten better at these but really think my talent lies with the hybrid projects. I created a wall decor peice out of coasters, a paper bag album(thanks Kathy for the idea & Instructions), and a card set with a matching box. The deadline to enter is today at midnight and results should be out next week!

Just wanted to update you all on my submission and here is a sneak peak at what I submitted...details to follow!
