Time To CRE8

Another New Year has begun and I have no idea where the last one went.  Time flies by so quickly that I'm afraid I'm never going to get all my creative ideas out of my head and completed.
To start the year off, I made these cute little calendars with chipboard, paper, ink, ribbon, Graphic 45 clothespins and the calendar template so kindly given to me by Paula & Deb.  Check out their blog  "One Lucky Day"for the cute little calendars and the template.


Here is a close-up...
Happy New Year to all my faithful followers.  I'm looking forward to another year of creating!
Become a "follower" and leave me a comment for a chance to win one of these cute little calendars.

~ "A Ladies' Diary" ~ Storage Drawers

This past Fall our girl's scrappin' group went on a 4-day retreat and this is one of the items we all chose to make together.
This is my second Kaisercraft Mini Storage Drawer set and I have to say that I really do enjoy making these as gifts.
This one is mine and I decided to use the "A Ladies' Diary" papers from Graphic 45.

 The BACK
 And a few close up shots of the drawers.

These are super easy to put together and make lovely gifts.  They come as a kit and all you have to do is glue the wooden frame together, paint it and then put the chipboard boxes together and decorate them.
It's a great project to do with friends as you can share all the embellishments and have a ton of fun!
