Project for Sept 28 2011- The Boo Crew

Hi Halloween Chicks

I am full on in the Halloween spirit and so at the last minute decided to change directions with my project this week and bring on the glittery, fun and fabulous side of Halloween.

Each page of the book is shaped like a witches hat (I included a pattern to cut out the hats from chipboard and patterned paper) with a fancy embellished hat band. And then there is the glitter, so much glittery goodness.

We have a video this week that includes the directions to make the double rosette and curlie q's on the front of the book. Have a Spooktacular week!

Project for Sept 14 2011

Hi Project Chicks

This week our project combines form and function together- it is a great way to stay organized during the school year.

You could also do this project into a 12 Month Home Organizer, Countdown to Baby organizer, Travel Organizer, or something else!

The format is simple, it is 11 manila envelopes bound together into a book (I used a Cinch, but you could also just bind this with book rings), and then every page has a spot for journaling on a tag, and spots to add photos and other memorabilia. The envelopes provide a great way to stay organized, you can store all of the valuable school papers, calendars, etc inside.

Have fun!

Project for Sept 7, 2011

Hi Wednesday Project Chicks




This week our project is a 6x6 Portfolio album- just perfect as a brag book for Grandparent's Day (Sun, Sept 11th).

Inside of the portfolio are pages for photos and then on the back of each page is a tag for you to write something or include a smaller photo. I also included a pattern to make the library pocket inside the cover- I tucked a gift card into the pocket.


I used a pre-made portfolio but I included the pattern and directions for you to make one from scratch using a letter sized file folder.


Have fun with this project- it is a fast and easy one- just what everyone needs during this hectic time as school starts again.
