Making Sturdy Envelopes Out Of Chipboard


Happy Friday, everybody!


The other day I needed to mail a purchase from my Etsy shop to it's new owner, which required a small but sturdy envelope, however I didn't have one.  I had some light weight chipboard that had been sitting around the studio, so, I put it to good use and came up with the idea for an envelope.


I filmed a quick and easy tutorial for you to follow along. This envelope style can also be made using using any type of paper or cardstock.


Take a look!




What do you think, super easy right?!

Have a great weekend!

The video includes a complete flip through of my Scrapbook, followed by a tutorial on how the base/cover was constructed. A great big th

Mini Lighted Shadowbox Vignettes Tutorial

I don't know about you but i like to save the scraps that are left over from my Mini Album projects. After all, we spend a good amount of money on some of these collections so we should find other ways to use them. The most obvious 'go to' for our scrappy bits are greeting cards, but what other uses are there? Did you know that small vignettes have become popular in the last few years?  Mixed Media Artists, like Tim Holtz, get to really show off their talent and imagination by making small display pieces with different themes.  Inspired by this, I thought I could use my saved bits and pieces to make these mini shadowbox type vignettes, which would be a fun little gift idea for an older child or for someone who has a holiday tree they keep up year-round. They could even be used as a tag, of sorts, to accompany a gift. How about personalizing them using a photo of a friend or family member as the star of the show? Go a step further and add some tiny LED
