Elisha Jean and Friends Embellishments – The Cutting Cafe Shop Design Team Project

Everyday Elisha Jean and Friends Embellishments 2

Embellishments using just the faces

I am back with a new design team project for The Cutting Cafe Shop! I made some cute embellishments using the Everyday Elisha Jean and Friends stamp set. I used the whole doll stamps on some and just the faces on others.

I used scraps from recent projects along with some stickers and foam squares. I have seen many videos making embellishments and decided to try some. I had fun making them and will make more in the future as it is a good way to use up scraps and use your punches.

And lastly, I made paper clips which are all the rage these days with the planner craze and the popularity of flip books.

11 May

Everyday Elisha Jean Stamp Set Shaker Card

I am back with another project using the Everyday Elisha Jean Stamp Set from The Cutting Cafe Shop! This time I used the Ruby J. friend a the focus. I used bright colored paper and the Assorted Card Folds Set 2 – Fold with Circle Window from The Cutting Cafe.

I added clear cardstock (which is also available in The Cutting Cafe Shop) to the window. I made a larger oval and attached my fussy cut Ruby J. to it. In between I added flower sequins and pink seed beads and put together with foam tape. I love how it came out!

Here is the insid…

Grad Word Album – The Cutting Cafe Design Team Project

7 May

Grad Word Album

Hello! It is design team time for The Cutting Cafe! This time we were given the opportunity to work with word or shape books. There are many to choose from in the store but since graduation is coming and I have a cousin that is graduating, I chose the Grad Word Book.

It comes with the pages and the single letters to use on top as an additional layer. I used his school colors and kept it simple enough so that he can put a few pictures from the day in it. Here are a pictures of the inside…

Love this sentiment!

Altered Notebook Featuring the Elisha Jean & Friends Stamp Set

4 May

Altered Notebook featuring Elisha Jean Stamp from The Cutting Cafe Shop

Today I am featuring the new clear stamp set, Everyday Elisha Jean & Friends, from The Cutting Cafe Shop which is the sister store to The Cutting Cafe. Regina, the owner, has translated some of the printable stamps from the original store into clear stamps. And when I tell you they stamp so smoothly it’s like butta, I really mean it.

I used a firework paper to cover the notebook, added bling, the word dream, and Elisha Jean, the cute doll stamp. The sentiment also came from the set. I paper pieced her dress, bows, and socks.

On the inside covers, I added pink glitter paper and stamped the dolls on every few pages…

i covered the inside covers with hot pink glitter paper.

I stamped the girls on every few pages. Here is the first one.

Super Twisted Note Card Swap

28 Mar

Cards and Envelope Box

My friend Tmika host great swaps all the time on YouTube. The latest one has us using techniques and embellishments. The 3 x 3 cards had to have a combination of four or more things going on. I used five techniques…dry embossing, distressing, texture paste stippling, glittering the texture paste, and splattering/ misting, and four embellishments…flowers, punches, twine, and a dazzle sticker.

Here is a close up of the card…

As always, packaging is a big part of a swap. Here is how I packaged mine…

It’s Time for Green – Gift Card Holders – The Cutting Cafe Design Team Project

7 Mar

Gift Card Holders

This time for our design team project for The Cutting Cafe, we could choose any file we wanted to. However, we had to use the color green. Since spring is coming and so is St. Patrick’s Day, green is very appropriate! I had gift cards to give to staff for Employee Appreciation Day and wanted a cute and easy way to give them. So I used the Gift Card and Money Holder Set.

Back View

Be sure to stop by The Cutting Cafe Blog and see all of the design team projects. There will be plenty of variety for inspiration! Leave a comment and you will be eligible to win three free files in a drawing on the next posting.

I also wanted to give another person at work a thank you gift card for his extra effort to get some projects done for me. So I made a different one for him.

Another version

These are very easy to make and can be decorated as much as you would like. I have kept them fairly simple but imagine them adorned with flowers and bling! Anyway, as always, here is a video of my project…

Flip Book Swap on Crafters with Artitude on Facebook

5 Mar

Flip Book Cover

I made my first Flip Book! I participated in a one-on-one swap with Kamisha who is VisionsofParis115 on YouTube through the Facebook Group Crafters with Artitute! I had just learned about flip books when the swap went up so I thought what better way to jump in. In a way, the flip book is the new pocket letter.

I decided that I wanted my book to be more than a pen pal letter so I went more of a photo book route with it and I hope Kamisha is ok with the direction I chose. Here are some pictures…
