Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day to you! 

We're so excited over at Imaginisce, we've paired up with Scrapbook Adhesives and are celebrating with a Blog Hop this week!  Prepare yourself for some amazing inspiration, as the projects are fabulous!!!

For my project, I created a mini album for some friends of ours.  I used the Hippity Hop collection (which just happens to be one of the prizes!!!)

How perfect is the "Bloom and Grow" sentiment for the cover?  So fun!

I cut an extra kite from the pattern paper and attached using the thin 3d foam squares.  You'll see the photo corners used on each of the mini album pages also.  The i-rock was used to add the bird "wings" using our silver teardrops, the gems and heart.

The die cut elements in the Hippity Hop collection are so fun and easy to use, they come pre-cut for you and all ready to roll out of the package!  I used the Scrapbook Adhesives thin 3D foam squares along with their regular 3D foam squares for varying dimension throughout.  The ribbon was attached using the Crafty Super Power tape.

The floral center was created using the i-Top 2.0 and a 16mm brad daddy. 

Confession time, the little raining cloud is hiding Daddy's hand holding the fish... so it could look like she is doing it herself.  ; )  A few strategically attached silver tear i-rock gems represent water splash from Mr. Fish.  I chose the "Hippity Hop" title on the fifth page as I'm presuming when they were at Disney they were on a Hopper pass.  (Crossing my fingers that I am right!) 

The back cover.  The little canvas sticker bird was attached using a few of the 3D foam squares stacked on each other so she could perch above the title.  I added a heart glam rock using my i-rock for it's wing and a few other gems for interest.

Designer's Notes:

• When I stitch my photos to their mats, I used just a few squares from the EZ Squares in the middle to tack the photo in place so it would be centered and not move while I stitched the photo to the mat.
• I have a confession... I'm an EZ Runner addict. I absolutely LOVE this runner and have used it since day 1 of scrapping. I don't make many projects without it.  It holds awesome and is small and easy to pack for a crop.  .

Epiphany Crafts - Happy Holidays!

It's a celebration of the season over at Epiphany this month!  We are so excited to feature our Shape Studio Star 25 Tool this week!

If you look closely, you will see that I used some snowflake stamps on top part of my box, then embossed with some crystal sparkling embossing powder.  I also did this to my tag on the blue pattern paper.

The papers that I chose from Quick Quotes have this beautiful spark of light in the pattern which worked in harmony with the star shapes.  The sentiment stamp set from A. Jillian Vance Design was the perfect compliment to the design!  They coordinate with the Epiphany Round 25 Bubble Caps.  I am going to tell you right now, these stamps are addicting in a very fun way!!!

To create the box, here are the instructions that I followed.

I started with a 9x9" square piece of pattern paper.  I used my border punch to add a pretty star themed border.  To align my pattern I punched the middle piece as shown below, then used it as a template on my side flaps to trace in pencil the pattern to punch.  It worked perfectly!

Using the Super Crafty Tape by Scrapbook Adhesives, secured the box edges together:   This tape is absolutely perfect for projects just like this!!!

I used the "My Stick" adhesive to create my tag!  I love how you can pivot the angle of this adhesive to work perfectly for your hand!!!
