N-o-e-l Blocks

I  made N-O-E-L block kits for a group project.  You paint the blocks, modge podge the background on, then the letters, and then hot glue on some decorations.  I cut out the letters with my Quikutz digital cutter. 



Here are a few of the kits (I made 18 kits).

Wedding Cards

I made about 20 of these and gave them to my mother and mother-in-law for mother's day along with a set of birthday cards, baby cards, and all-occasion cards.

Paper Globes

These paper globes from Heather Bailey are easier to make with a circle cutter, but in my experience (4" circles) they were flimsy and fell apart. I won't make them again.  I made this one for Valentine's Day last year.

L-O-V-E Chipboard Album

This might be great for Valentine's Day.  I made this four page photo album spelling "L-O-V-E" but I haven't put pictures in it yet.  I bought the chipboard from Roberts Crafts but it still took 6 hours to decorate and I still haven't put the ribbons on the clips.  Ack! 




I got the idea from a gift a friend received when she had her baby boy:

Covered Clipboards

Here is one of several tutorials out there for covering a clipboard using modge podge. It gives a clean look (not just wrap it front and back and tape it down like a present). The key is to sand the outside edges.  I made about five but I lost and gave away the rest.

Paper Covered Binder

I covered this 1 1/2" "Eco Binder" Using 5 coordinating 12"x12" peices of scrapbook paper. It is just the size to cover the front outside with one, the front inside with another, the back with two more, and then a 5" strip of the last peice to recover the binding.




But it became very wrinkly (unlike the clipboards or puzzles) and I ran it so close and rubbed too hard and so it was a lot of work and didn't turn out great.
