BUTTERFLY MINI ALBUM - JERODELLE TRINIDAD

by Tammy Bishop in News

Hi Friends!

So excited to share with you this Butterfly Mini Album I created using ‘Butterflies’ cutting file from Teresa’s website :)

 

 

I used the BOLD - Live your bold life Collection for this project. I love the powder blue with the black, white and gold. This album has 5 pages and was so easy to create!

 

 

I cut out one of the butterflies with details to create the cover then used the “offset” option in the silhouette software to create the base of the album.

 

 

For the spine I used the papers from the collection. Teresa’s papers are ver thick and sturdy and perfect to make the spine! I used a 4 x 2 piece of paper and scored every 1/2 inch and folded it like an accordion

 

 

I hope you enjoyed this very first project of mine using the BOLD - Live Your Bold Life Collection!

TRAVEL PASSPORT NOTEBOOK - TRACEY SHENTON

Hey to all those Teresa fans out there.  I am so excited to be doing my first post on the blog.  I chose to make a project using the Teresa Collins Jetsetter Passport Notebook.  This comes in a set of three, but I have only used one for the project.         I made one small change to the cover of the Notebook.  I used the Teresa Collins Fiskars Heart punch on the bottom left corner.      I used a 3x4 tag from the Jetsetter Paper Collection – To Travel is to Live.  I inked the edges of the tag using a soft pink ink. On the page I used Novo Gilding Flakes – Gold to edge the page. (this stuff gets everywhere!!)     You don’t have to use all of a card.  I only wanted the “Capture Life’ for my page. I found it easier to use double sided tape to attach it to the photo.  I then used a soft coral coloured pencil to shade the words.  I added the Gold Star sicker from the Be Thankful Sticker Set     I have used another 3x4 tag from the Jetsetter Paper Collection – Adventure.  I used my Scoreboard to score the top of the card to make a flip up.  I love flip ups as they let you add more photos and hidden journaling.       I used the marble washi from the Make Things Happen Set around the edges of the page.  This is an effective way to add dimension to a page.  On the second page I folded the page corner down and then used double sided tape and adhered it to the next page to make a pocket.  I put the same marble washi on the edge and bottom of the pocket.  I trimmed the #smile 3x4 card from the Photo Gallery cards and adhered my photo to the back of it.  I then used a Crop-a-dile to punch a hole and put in an eyelet so that I could add ribbon.  I used stickers from the Jetsetter Sticker set and cut down the circle washi from the Make Things Happen set to decorate the page.     I cut a 6x4 card using “Itinerary” and “Star” from the Travel Notes paper in the Jetsetter Paper Collection.  I scored this down the centre and used as a flip out.  Inside the centre of the flip out I used the Gold Heart washi from the Make Things Happy set. I then added four photos.  On the page I used the Gold washi from the Jetsetter set before I added the 6x4 card to the page.  The stickers were from Plan It Designer Sticker Set 2.     I added a gold doily stapling it to the page.  If you fold the doily down the centre, you can add it to two pages (front & back).  You can simply add a photo and small embellishments to make a very effective page.  I used the Jetsetter sticker set.     I love how this page turned out.  I cut the page down from the top about halfway.  Then I used double sided tape to adhere the top of the page to the bottom of the page.  I created a pocket by adding double sided tape to the sides and bottom (leave top) and sticking it to the next page. I adhered the Black Stripe washi from the Make Things Happen set to the top of the pocket.  I made a few washi ribbons and stuck them in between two photos to make a pull-out tag.  I used the “We Were Here” as an embellishment.  This was from the Jetsetter Paper Collection – Amazing Adventure page.     Thanks for checking out my project.  Hope you have been inspired.

ORGANIZE YOUR TOOLS & SUPPLIES- RACHEL TURKAL

Organize Your Tools & Supplies to Create a Space that Works for You! In this crazy time where we’re spending more and more time at home and having a functional space to work and to create has become a necessity. No longer can we simply work from the couch or create at the kitchen/dining table. We need a space to call our own. This post is the beginning of my personal  journey in creating a space that works for me. My space IS messy, disorganized, and cluttered. I currently do NOT have a pristine space (nor will I ever, most likely). What I am striving for is a functional space. I often get caught up in the pictures of organizational perfection that are shared across print and social media. We somehow think these amazing pictures are what we need to strive for and forget to focus on what actually works for us; finding a way to better utilize the tools and supplies we already have. I am sharing  my REAL journey to a space that works for me. This will NOT happen overnight and most likely will be a years long endeavor. Don’t forget that when organizing your space that it all doesn't happen in one fell swoop; it takes time. Give yourself grace and enjoy the journey. One area that, I think, that is often overlooked is wall space. I need a  place to organize and store my most used tools and supplies. We get distracted by dramatic before and after pictures and often forget the journey it took to get there. Much like our life is a journey and personal  evolutionary process so is creating the space we live in. Thank you for joining me on my journey! Here we go. when in doubt start small.  I’m only tackling this wall and not the rest of the room. This is the space that is in desperate need of transformation: As you can see it’s a hot mess, and I have a lot of unused wall space. I want to utilize this vertical space to its fullest potential. Keep these questions in mind when designing or thinking about your space’s layout: * What are the items that I reach/use for most? * Is this practical? * Am I being honest with myself about X or do I just want it for the sake of FOMO (fear of missing out)? I researched and looked for inspiration everywhere and what most spoke to me was this system of wall organization called Wall Control, which is used mainly in workshops and can be found at big box home improvement stores. Here are the wall panels that I have chosen to install: Tech specs: These panels are 16” wide, which means that if you have 16” on-center studs, your panels will mount perfectly and be very securely to your wall. The provided screws were drilled directly into the studs and no wall anchors were needed. Additionally the panels are a wall-scaling 48” tall; shorter panels are available starting at 16” tall. Now you don’t have to use these wall panels. You could use removable wallpaper or vinyl to define your space and use nails to hang told and supplies.  Alternatively you could mount a larger picture frame (maybe from a thrift shop) directly on the wall with removable velcro strips and hang supplies inside it with any variety of hooks. There are many different pegboard systems out there, so find the one that works for you physically and is within your price range.     I need a place to organize my paper punches, stamps (the most frequently used & hard to store), and Xyron Creative Stations.     I definitely use paper towels when creating so having a reachable place that works for me is essential.     I’m beginning to add my small collection of Crop-a-diles to my wall organization, and eventually I’ll have all of them hung. I haven’t decided where works best, and that’s the beauty of this pegboard system, and any modular system really, is that it grows and changes with you as your needs change.  Give yourself permission to change your space; give yourself permission to embrace the imperfection in the journey or organizing. I think we can all attest to the fact that organization is a journey. Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither will the organization of my crafting space be.     Easy access to my Teresa Collins washi is also important, as well as Teresa Collins’ Essentials. (For the Essentials tubes I simply screwed  hooks into the top of the cork stopper. I found the hooks in a picture hanging kit.  Use what you have!)     To crown this space I can think of nothing more apropos, since I’m a Leo,  than this lovely Lion from one of Teresa’s most recent digital file releases. Paired with an edited Sun Medallion, this matte gold medallion in  removable vinyl is perfection and caps off the industrial chic aesthetic I’m striving for.     Of course I needed to add some of that oh-so-inspiring Art Prints with Teresa’s empowerment quotes to finish everything off! One small slice of my room done, for now, and many more to come!     My space is not complete and neither is my creative journey. As Teresa says, “Progress Over Perfection.”     Thank you so much for reading!

BOO-TIFUL DASHBOARD - SHANNON MARTINEZ

BOO! I’m all ready for October. I created this BOO-tiful dashboard to welcome all the spooky fun. Want to create your own? Here are the details-   I started by using some digital cut files from Teresa Collins Studio. I then picked out a couple colors/patterned papers I wanted to use. I always cut a few extra’s so I have options, allow for mistakes or use them for additional decor. Next, I laid out the design to my liking and glued it all together. Finally, I used some adhesive to place it on a half sheet of vellum so I can punch and add it to my planner (acetate sheets would work well, also).   As a bonus, I added some of my extra cuts and a little humor to the other page by using some Sassy Stickers. I love to think outside the box and be creative. I hope you found some inspiration to create your own BOO-tiful fun!   -Shannon Martinez @mycreativetherapy   Here are the links to the items I used:   BLOCK ALPHABET https://www.teresacollinsstudio.com/products/block-alphabet SPIDERS https://www.teresacollinsstudio.com/products/spiders   GHOSTS https://www.teresacollinsstudio.com/products/ghosts SASSY STICKERS https://www.teresacollinsstudio.com/products/sassy-sticker-set
