Cute As A Button Layout by Shanna

Hello to all you lovelies out there. Shanna here with a layout. I just love this photo and thought it went great with these Tea Party papers.

I love the layers of papers I added along with some flowers and a doily. I did add some gold sparkle to the background for some extra shine.

I added a chipboard title that was painted with black paint. 

I really love the tag I cut out from one of the cut out sheets  (sorry I don't remember which one though). 

I also added some cardboard under the photo for a little dimension. 

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Make sure you keep coming back for more inspiration!

Items Used:

Tea Party Collection - Wonderlnad

We  went in one "Amanohashidate" of the famous place of Japan.

It is series "POSH" of the trip theme of Marion Smith to use.

The simple drape which is made paper of Marion Smith.

 It's used a property of the paper of Marion Smith

I love the atmosphere that is a vintage though it is this POP very much.

Card by Yasmin Tölche

Hello everyone! It's Yasmin on the blog today and I have a sweet card to share with you. This card fits for loads of occassions since I didn't write any specifics on it.

I've used different papers from different collections on this.. It's kind of a "scrap-paper" card. You can find papers from the Junque Gypsy collection, Romance Novel II and Posh collection.

I seriously wanted to make a card with this large lush resin Rose that Marion Smith has designed. It's just so fantastic. I added a few other flowers and loads of pearls and microbeads.

This little bling heart is also a MSD embellishment. Isn't it the sweetest? 

Thank  you so much for stopping by the blog today! Have a great day :)

Timekeeper Mini Album

I am so glad to be back inspiring you all with more lovely inspiration with the gorgeous Marion Smith Designs. 

I absolutely feel in love with the Timekeeper collection.

I decided to make a quick and fun mini album. I even took some pictures to share how I made it. So come along. 

So let's start with making the base.

#1 - First I scored a 12x12 at 1/2", 5 3/8", 6", 6 5/8", and 11 1/2".

#2 - I turned it and scored at 9".

#3 - I folded it straight down the middle.

#4 Then I cut up the the 1/2" off each end leaving the 1/2" after the 9" score and I cut up the middle from the bottom up to the 9" score as well crating the pockets.

#5 - I cut in on the flaps and angled the edges  so they could be glued down.

#6 - I folded the flaps accordingly however this is up to you if you want flaps or not.

#7 - Fold in the flaps and glue them down. 

#8 - I trimmed the length of the mini down to how long I wanted it. Basically I trimmed 2 inches because I wanted it to be 7" tall. 

#9 - I punched holes for my rings to go through.

#10 - I added rivets so the paper wouldn't tear from use.

Then embellish as you see fit. 

I hope you try this mini album out as I would love to see what you create!
