Pop n' Cut card ~ Jenni style!!!

 Hi guys~coming off of a busy weekend:):)

This is a pop n' cut card I did for a friend.  I used JBS paper, Prima, Maya Road ( love that camera) and the flair is by The Paper Bakery.

On the inside I put a vintage milk cap on the front of the cup.

This was for a "cyber " friend that we were going to meet and then it didn't work out:(~hopefully next time!!!!

This is a fun layout I did using some vintage:):) Bella Blvd and the some "boy" flair from The Paper Bakery .  They went together so good, you would have thought they were made to go together. Nice when that happens.

Loving the flair ~ perfect!!!

The Paper Bakery~Dry Eraser Board!

Hi everyone~this is my last project for The Paper Bakery.  I love making these Dry Eraser Boards and this December add on kit had great embellishments in it for this type of project.  They take some time but so worth it in the end.  I decoupaged tissue paper, that was in the kit, to the inside cardboard~giving me my background that will be seen through the frame.

You are ready to add paper to the outside frame and decorate it as you like.  The products I used were the The Paper Bakery's December add on kit and Helmar 450 Quick Dry, Helmar Decoupage and Helmar Acid Free Glue.  You can go HERE to find out how to get your name on the list for future and up coming kits from The Paper Bakery.  If you have questions about the kit club and how it works THIS is a great place to start looking for answers.

See ya soon for my TOP TEN Twelve projects of 2011!!!!

The Paper Bakery~December kit release!!!

Good morning!!! Today is the release of The Paper Bakery's December kit.  It is full of Studio Calico pattern paper's and those handmade tags, that we all love, trims, material, and a Jenni Bowlin rubber stamp.  The kit is selling quickly so go HERE to reserve your kit. 

I made these extra large flowers for my camera bag~using the material that comes in the December add on kit and Canvas Corp. flowers { that I had}. Helmar 450 Quick Dry adhered them together. I sewed Jenni Bowlin buttons in the center of the flowers.

This one is my favorite!! The material is so different and unique~I just love it!!!!! Go check it out~what a great Christmas present this kit would make~all the details are on The Paper Bakery blog.  Thanks for stopping by and have a great day~see ya soon!!

Try It Tuesday~a journal and a sneak look!!!

Hi everyone ~hope you had an awesome Thanksgiving and got your full of Turkey and trimmings!!!! I started out with The Paper Bakery's November add on kit and a composition notebook. I used the Echo Park papers and covered the front and back and inside covers. I then took Claudine Hellmuth's sticky back canvas and trimmed out the edges, so no raw paper edges were exposed.

I then started laying my design out on the front, deciding what will go where. The material in the kit is so fun and I knew I wanted to make a Gluber { by Cosmo Cricket} flower { I had enough material to get two flowers} I loved the trims in the kit~so vintage Christmas to me~the blue foil trim!!!

The inside of the composition notebook has a large pocket for receipts or notes. A great notebook for keeping track of all of those peeps you buy Christmas gifts for. I added some rubber stamps and inked all the edges. All of the embellishments were adhered with Helmar 450 Quick Dry!!!

Another view of the front~and the bottom photo, a view of the back.

Love how it came out and it will last for many years to come!! This kit is full of handmade embellishments that are sure to please!!! All the details on how to become a monthly subscriber are Here Remember the weekly sketch and the Design Team Call!! Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!!
