Congrats to Alicia for winning Challenge #7 with her wonderful card using the Letterpress Technique we have asked her to be our Guest Designer and share with us a little bit about herself and her favorite projects. Hi My name Alicia O'Bryant and I am a craft addict.  I have crafted for as long as I can remember.  I have been a "professional" crafter for 25 years.  I started making jewelry in 1988 for gifts and within a year I was selling my wares.  Jewelry was my primary artistic interested for many years, but along came my son.  After losing my first child I was going to document every moment of this child's life.  Well, I have!  He will be 14 soon and still being an only child has his every wish within my means and his every event documented.  I have scrapped so many soccer pages, I don't know if I can do another!  I get a little tired of all the boy pages, so I often scrap my nieces.  I scrap mainly traditional, but I have a fl...

Hi friends!  Sandy here for ScrapBook Blessings Club to share with you Saturday's anything goes project. We will be using different techniques to make Christmas Tags today. First, I have my tip of the day for you.... Gather up those scraps, they make excellent tags! Onto today's project... I have a couple tags to showcase that I did using scraps (nothing was bought new for these) and the different card techniques used for 12 days of Christmas Blog hop. I did 12 videos with 12 different cards.  You can check those out of step by step instructions. Right now, I will just show you how I used the same techniques to make my Christmas Tags for this year. If you are a member of our Facebook Group then you got a sneak peak of these tags.  Plus our current challenge right now is TAGS, just create card or project but make sure it has a tag on it!!! First up is my favorite one! Gold Emboss Reindeer:  supplies: embossing powder, heat gun, versa mark, ribbons, white...

Hi there,  Cristina here for ScrapBook Blessings Club to share with you Friday's project I made for Christmas. First, my tip of the day.... have fun when creating .  You don't want to feel overwhelmed with something your working on. If you get stuck put it away and start with a new project until you have a clear head and then go back. Onto today's project... I made this advent tree for my kids. I made one a couple years back and they move Santa around on a calendar until x-mas day but I would always have to buy the chocolate advent calendar at the store because they loved getting a treat each day so of course each little box has a different chocolate for each day. Here is what I used: cardstock: DCWV "Home for Christmas" 3 in 1 clue, glue gun Tim Holtz "Black Soot" Martha Stewart - Aquarium Holly Berry acrylic paint Kaisercraft Advent Tree I hope your enjoyed today's project. If you have a question, please leave it in the comm...

Good morning friends, Carolyn here with a review of a new tool I just recently purchased.  Received a newsletter from Scrapbook.com recently and checked it out.  But I did not purchase from Scrapbook.com as it's out of stock, so went to another source, and it arrived this past Saturday afternoon. TIP:  Easy way to create borders for your scrapbook page layouts, or embellishing the page or creating edges for your cards.  Gives you ease of creating a border across the edge(s) of paper; and create a border strip and cut down to size you would like for embellishing a sentiment mat for a card or front of card. Supplies used: Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Fiskars' smaller interchangeable border punch cartridges - double scalloped edge   Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Here is a short write up about the system: The unique design of the AdvantEdge Punch System by Fiskars allows crafters to add perfectly aligned decorative borders and rib...

Welcome to today's post here at Scrapbook Blessings Club! So happy you could join us! Teresa  here from Fresh and Renewed bringing you a great post and project for you today! Tip: Banners are really easy to make and can help a birthday child feel very special. I create one for each of my 7 grandchildren on their birthday each and every year! Here is a picture of the most recent birthday little guy in our family! He had a candy themed party so I created a round shaped banner to resemble candies.     Thank you so much for joining us here today...hopefully I have inspired you to maybe create a banner and not be intimidated by the large task it may seem to be.   Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by,
