Interlocking Storage Organizer Make Great Gifts

Hi, today I am sharing the Interlocking Storage Organizer by Deflecto. These are great to organize all your small items. I decided to give mine away as a birthday gift to a friend who loves crafting.


I added a happy birthday ribbons around the container and small butterflies on the top container. I labeled each container using the Wet Erase Marker Set.

Stylish Faux Clipboard

Hi everyone, it's Monica from Taylormadecards4u, and I am here today to share with you this faux clipboard I made using some chipboard and our Sign Tags and Wet Erase Markers.

I wanted to create something that I could stick on the fridge that would not be too heavy. Not only did I want to be able to write little notes, but I wanted to be able to attach notes as well.


I started out with some chipboard and covered it using designer paper. I embossed the top of the sign tag and glued it to my chipboard. I added four brads in each corner to help keep it secure and aesthetics.

I decorated the board by adding some plastic letters to spell out Notes and some coffee ribbon at the bottom. Finally, I attached my clip to the top to finish off the clipboard design.

Celebrate the Green with This Fun Pocket Album

Happy March! St. Patrick's Day and Easter are in the same month. I love Spring! Everything is fresh, new and green. I have created a fun pocket album with a hint of the green! Stay tuned here to see how I made it!
Supplies you will need:

Sign Tags w/Wet Erase Markers
Embossing Folder:  Damask, 5" x 7"
Embossing machine
Green Sacks:  3.5" x 2" x 6.75
Cardstock:  Black and White 8-1/2" x 11"
Paper Sander
Grosgrain Ribbon:  5/8" black and white polka dots
Picot Ribbon:  1/4" black
Adhesive
Binding Rings:  1", two per album
Scissors
Paper Trimmer
Paper Drill (To punch holes in the paper and the sign tags)
Ephemera to decorate album
Charms of your choice

Instructions:

1.  Emboss the sign tags.  Use the paper sander and sand against the grain of the embossed design.  This will add definition to the design.

2.  Use the paper drill and punch holes in the sign tag album covers as shown.

3.  Mark the bags to match the punched holes in the sign tag album covers.  Punch holes in the bags, with the gusset of the bag facing up.

4.  Cut the different papers into 3-1/2" x 5-1/2" rectangles.  It will take four pieces of paper to decorate each bag.  With the bag gusset facing up; adhere the paper to the bottom half of the gusset only.  This will be the first page.  Open the first page, match the edges and adhere a contrasting piece of paper to the wrong side of the paper.

5.  Match the edges and adhere a contrasting paper rectangle to the white side of the paper.  (If this is a paper with a design on each side disregard this step.  Adhere another contrasting paper to the top of the sack, then one to the back side.

Above is a photo of how the pocket page is showing the opening in the sack.

6.  Place the pages between the album covers. Insert the binding rings to secure the album.  Tie pieces of ribbon around each binding ring.

7.  Attach some charms by threading them onto a piece of the picot ribbon.  Tie a knot in the ribbon to secure the charms.  Thread one end of the picot ribbon through a binder ring and tie in a knot to secure.  Trim the ribbon ends.

8.  Select your ephemera and photos and decorate the inside of your album!  You can add small pockets, sentiments, photos, etc.  The album is ready for your special touches!

Enjoy!


Make sure to take time to enjoy the small blessings along the way and,
Live Life with a Flourish!

Sharing A Smile Frame

I am afraid I have turned into one of those grandparents I have always complained about. I have a compulsion to share my cute granddaughter's photos with everyone, every single chance I get! So check out this uber cute Smile Frame using Deflecto Crafts 4 x 6 Green Craft Frame. I used black cardstock for a photo mat and added white faux stitching; when dry I inserted the photo into the frame. I added white rubon's in the upper corners on the outside of the frame, then highlighted them with black rhinestones.


I used a wood embellishment and colored it with the green marker from the Wet Erase Marker Set.



To finish off the outside of the frame, I added a bow made from silver rick rack, some paper flowers and leaves, and a couple of resin flowers. I used a white paint pen to add highlights to the wood embellishment and glued it to the top of the ribbon.

Supplies:
Deflecto 4x6 Green Craft Frame
Deflecto Wet Erase Marker Assortment
Other: Black cardstock, Wood Embellishment, Silver rick rack resin flowers white paint pen Beacon 3-N-1 Adhesive Paper flowers and leaves Rub-ons Rhinestones

The Perfect St. Patrick's Day Banner

Hi, everyone! For St. Patrick I wanted to make some decorations. The Sign Tags w/Wet Erase Markers and the Assorted Wet Erase Markers were perfect to create this fun banner to hang on my door or almost anywhere.


I cut the Sign Tags into a triangle and punched some holes into them to string some green ribbon through them.

Castles of Ireland

Hello, Monica here today! When I got this frame, the first thing I thought about was some of the pictures I have of the rolling green countryside hills of Scotland. I knew the Deflecto 4" x 6" Green Craft Frame would compliment my pictures perfectly.


I decorated the frame with some rubons and jewels to create the Irish theme I was going for.

Burlap Easter Wreath with Video Tutorial

Erin, here today and I have always wanted to create a spring wreath, and I finally got around to doing it, and it came out so cute!! I really wanted to use up the scrapbook supplies I already had, to create something a little different something other than a traditional scrapbook layout. The wreath just seemed like the perfect thing to use them on.






I used the Sign & Banner Hangers on the back of the banner to hold it in place on the wreath.


Here is an in-depth video tutorial on how I made this super cute wreath.

Rotating Carousel Craft Organizer With Video

In my mind, the key to not being frustrated when crafting is knowing where your supplies are so you do not spend an hour looking for that perfect item for your project. So in that respect, organization is the key!! For me, I was sorely lacking in my organization of all my little burlap, canvas, and fabric pieces, which also includes my ropes and fringes (pretty much my Canvas Corp stash). I had them in a bag by my desk all in knots and a complete mess. It took forever to untangle it all when I needed to find just one color or piece of something. So frustrating!! Plus since it was fabrics and burlap, it would pull apart and shred on me. I lost tons of product just due to poor storage.


I had this 9 Bin Carousel Rotating Organizer sitting on my shelf empty for the last three months wondering what I could use it for. Why I never thought to put these two things together (the organizer and fabric stash) was beyond me, I chalk it up to lack of sleep and kids. Well, now they are a perfect match and check out my video on how I put it all together!!


Not only is the organizer a carousel, it is super easy to see each bin's contents, they also pull out for easy accessibility, and they are stackable!!

Check out all the supplies this thing holds!!

Now my burlap and canvas supply has a home, yay!! Plus on a side note, my daughter loves to play with the unit; she thinks it is just a giant rotating building block unit she can put her toys in, lol

Supplies Used:

9 Bin Carousel Rotating Organizer
Rope - Canvas Corp
Fabric - Canvas Corp
Shapes - Canvas Corp
Twine - Target
Enjoy!!
