DT Paper Issues Swag Bag projects

Last week I've had some projects made with the February Swag Bag up on the Paper Issues blog. I challenged myself to only use products that we're in the Swag Bag and it was actually easier than I thought it was. The Paper Issues Swag Bags are filled with the best embellishments and cards that match all perfectly.

First I made this layout, which I only had to add kraft cardstock for, and started up the design for the page with the cards from the Swag Bag. As you can see it is not necessary to use romantic pictures to use Valentine themed products. This picture shows so much love, that it is perfect for these products too!

For my second project I wanted to use the plastic hearts box that came with the Swag Bag. I decorated it with some of the embellishments, filled it with grapes and it was turned into a little snack box!

DT Paper Issues - Tip-toe Through the Tu-lips

Time flies by and it's already time for a new issue at Paper Issues: Tip-toe Through the Tu-lips. Here are some ideas for projects you can link up:

• Anything having to do with spring (planting, raindrops, umbrellas, rainboots, flowers peeking through the ground).
• Show us a project that features flowers (especially tulips) or even floral papers.
• Share the best tip you've ever received.
• Use lips as an embellishment.
• Shhhh...have you ever had to tip-toe around while baby was sleeping? Maybe you made a sign to hang on baby's door.
• Warmer weather is also a time to get your feet in tip-toe shape with a pretty pedicure.

As a born and raised Dutch girl I couldn't go for anything other than tulips. The Dutch are not only known for cheese, wind mills and wooden shoes, but also for tulips. Especially this time of the year I like to have some tulips to bring that spring feeling in the house.
I used the Webster's Pages Recorded collection by Allison Kreft for this layout.

You can link up any project that fits this issue overhere at Paper Issues for your chance to win a $20 gift certificate to the Paper Issues store. Right now is a good time to visit the store anyway, it is loaded with all new American Crafts collections. Be sure to not miss out on all the new yummie goodies you have on your wish list and use DANIELLE20 to shop with 20% off!

DT Life.Paper.Scrapbook. - March sketch

It's time for a new sketch at Life.Paper.Scrapbook. and this month's sketch is sponsored by Scrapbook Circle.

When I saw this picture for the first time, the title 'Prince Charming' was what immediately came up in my mind. I used the Elle's Studio Cameron collection and the title is made with Amy Tangerine's corrugated Thickers.

Scrapbook Circle is a monthly kit club owned and runned by Lisa Andrews. The kits are filled with the newest papers and embellishments that can be found and each month they have add ons that match the kits perfectly. They have a rockin' Design Team that shows you awesome examples to inspire you to work with the kits!

I hope you feel inspired by our sketch too. Link up your project overhere at Life.Paper.Scrapbook. for your chance to win a kit offered by Scrapbook Circle!

DT Creative Scrappers - sketch #263

We have a new sketch for you at Creative Scrappers today! I hardly use photos on my layouts this big, so I loved to get challenged to give it a try. Our sponsor this month is Chic Tags! 

I chose a photo of my dolphin swim on Key Largo a couple years ago. For the strips on the right side of the page I went for the washi strips from the Crate Paper The Pier collection.

I hope you feel inspired by this sketch too and you'll give it a try to use a photo of this size on your page. Be sure to link up your take on the March sketches over at Creative Scrappers for your chance to win a $30 worth prize pack from Chic Tags!! I'm sure you don't want to miss out on that!

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your Sunday!

Elle's Studio - Thursday sketch

I decided to play along with this week's sketch from Elle's Studio. I love the design and all the circles in this one.

I had this photo of Phiene where she's totally focused on the I-pad. I'm still amazed how easy little kids know how to operate any kind of computer or tablet and how 'normal' it is that they watch movies and cartoons on it. You can definitely call this the I-pad generation!

I'll also link up this layout at the current issue at Paper Issues. It's called Color by the Numbers and to fit this issue I used the number paper, the number woord veneers and of course the bright colored papers of the Elle's Studio Everyday Moments collection. I also used buttons from A Flair for Buttons.

Link up your projects that fit this issue overhere at Paper Issues for your chance to win a goodie bag filled with Pinkfresh Studio products!

You can find all Elle's Studio products overhere in the Paper Issues store and get it with 20% off when you use my code DANIELLE20 at check out!
