Hello Baby Girl Picture Frame for PHP

Hello! Today I am on the Paper House Productions blog where we have teamed up with Pen Blades. I decided to go off the page and make a picture frame.

I'm so happy with this frame. Take a look at the before picture and you will see why!

Look at that awful frame! I'm so glad I kept it in the hopes that a better idea would come along. The Paper House Productions craft set did just the trick. The papers are actually decals and there are some 3D embellishments and alphas. All I needed to do was trim the decal with the pen blade and add embellishments.

Here you can see that I covered the front with one piece then I cut out the middle and folded it around.

Here is the finished recovering of the frame and the pen blade.

I made the fan by accordion folding a long strip of paper every quarter inch after scoring the paper. I taped the ends together in a circle and punched some circles to cover it. I used a glue gun and pop dots to hold it all together on the frame. I finished it off with some puffy stickers that can be found in the Hello Baby Papercrafting Kit or bought separately.

Your Time To Shine - Sketches In Thyme

I got to work with another great sketch this week by Bev Code at Sketches In Thyme. It had so many possibilities. I decided to use some cut files to fill the empty space and photos taken by my friend Darlene. She was able to get some pictures of my daughter at nursery school while I was at work.

Here is the sketch:

Look At Me Layout

I have so many unused collections, it's time to use them. There just isn't enough time to use them all so I haven't bought any of the new lines this year in the hopes of using my stash. It's been fun going through everything and working with entire kits, not scraps. So I've been wanting to use the Crate Paper Poolside collection and now that I have a bunch of swimming pictures, it's the perfect time.

I'm really excited about how it turned out! It was one of those layouts where I had no plan and pieced it together. I chose this awesome cut file by Stacey at Paper Issues as my starting point. Then I chose the font, made some layers behind my pictures and a cluster at the bottom. I had actually planned to line the pictures vertically down the left and the title down the right but once I had all the pieces made and moved them around I decided on this pattern. I'm playing along at Paper Issues with Cut It Up Tuesday. If you haven't downloaded the free cut files at Paper Issues you need to do it now! There are so many.

Grandparents Layout for PHP and Xyron

This week the Paper House Productions team has joined forces with Xyron. I got to tryout their tape runner and sticker maker. Here is my layout:

Here is how I made the flower paper in the top left into a sticker.

I placed the paper into the sticker maker.

Pulled this paper out and ripped it off.

Peeled the paper off and the adhesive was left on the back of my flower paper.

Little Things Family Flip Album for PHP

I'm on the Paper House Productions Blog today showing the Little Things Flip Album. I made this for my mother-in-law for her birthday. It is a cool little album where she can display a bunch of our family photos.

The album comes with the clear stickers and gold photo corners. Easy peasy!

This is the backside of the top flap.

Unfold the top flap one more time and there is space for more photos.

The second flap has this pocket with a slide out. I used a sentiment from the One Big Happy Family Collection on both sides. 

Here is what you see when you flip up the pocket.

This is the third flap. 

When you open it there is a place for a picture and journaling.

Finally, under the third flap is space for 2 photos. Look at those cuties!
