Welcome the Creative Embellishments 1st Anniversary blog hop. I’m honored to be taking part in this momentous occasion! If you stumbled on the hop here, then please go to Creative Embellishments blog for the hop details and begin the hop on Nicolle’s blog here… >> http://nicollelovesscrapbooking.blogspot.com/

I am happy you are here with us today to celebrate the Creative Embellishments 1 year anniversary! To celebrate, we’re having a dt hop and giving away FOUR $25.00 gift vouchers to the store! All you need to do to be entered to win one of the vouchers is leave a comment on the hop post on the CE blog letting them know what your favorite CE product is, then leave some love on each of our design team member’s blogs then follow each blog. We’re each sharing a project with our favorite CE product on it. The winner of the hop will be randomly selected and announced on Monday September 8th.

I LOVE Creative Embellishments’ product, so it was very hard to for to pick a favorite. Their laser cut chipboard is so intricate and lovely, their wood veneers are detailed and darling! Their newest product line, flair, are so awesome to work with and I can’t say enough about their laser etched rubber stamps. Those are awesome for mixed media projects. Since I couldn’t make myself pick a single favorite, I decided to go with two categories. Their frames and title pieces are definite MUST-HAVES!

With my pieces chosen, I decided to create an off the page project for you all today. I hope you like it! 😀

Nail wrap file box – otp project for Creative Embellishments

Hi everyone! It’s Thursday, so I’m up on the Creative Embellishments blog with an off the page project for you today. 😀 I recently signed up as a consultant for Jamberry nail wraps along with my bestie Nicolle. Now that I’ve been with them a little while, I’ve built up quite a stash of nail wraps and needed a way to store and organize them. Luckily, I have a whole scrapbook stash to play with, so I created my own, using a coupon organizer type idea. There are separate compartments and I left room between the dividers and the top to add labels for my dividers later. Here’s now it turned out:

Close up of the dividers attached to the side. You can see I’ve left about half an inch for the tabs to be added:

A close up of how they sit inside:

Closed up with everything inside. I did not adhere the top of the frame or the flower cluster so that I can tuck the flap under them as a closure. 😀

Materials:

Creative Embellishments Art Flair
CE Ornate frames
CE Gooey Alphabet
Webster’s Pages papers, trim and bloomers
I am Roses flowers
Pitt artist marker
Martha Stewart border punch

TFL!

Hi everyone! I’m up on the Creative Embellishments blog with a layout to share. 😀 This pic was taken almost 2 years ago and captures a little ritual that would happen several times a day, every day. Over and over again, Christian would say…Pound? Five? Hug? Kiss?…then all over again. 😀 Here he is slouched on the couch just like Daddy. 😀
