Grab Box Projects

Hi Everyone

Lots of you have bought one (or in some cases two!!) of the grab boxes and I hope you have enjoyed creating some lovely cards and scrapbook layouts with your new papers.

The very talented Jenny didn't waste any time in cutting into her new papers and made this beautiful card with the My Minds Eye Little Flowers paper from her grab box.



She also made this gorgeous box with another sheet of paper from her box.




For details of how she made both the card and box and to see more of her crafting projects why not pop over to her blog.

I'd love to see what you make with your grab box goodies or in fact anything purchased from the S J Crafts Shop. E mail a photo or a link to your blog. My e mail is:  sarah at s j papercrafts dot co dot uk (obviously remove the spaces and change the dot to a .) Just don't want loads of those webrobot thingys e mailing me too!!! lol!

There is another grab box coming soon so watch this space for that and also details of the OPEN DAY are now up on the website here 

Those of you that have asked about the Ranger Blending Tools and Replacement Foams ~ They are on order and should be here any day now!

Have a fabulous, craft filled day!

MME Lime Twist Cards

Yesterday I had a little play with one of the gorgeous MME LimeTwist 6" X 6" Paper Pads and made a couple of cards.

This first one is very simple but sometimes I like the "less is more" look!!  The background paper is from the Lime Twist Life of the party pad and some Bazzill kraft cardstock (I use kraft loads and I'm almost completely out of it so must remember to get some more!). I have inked the kraft with distress ink. The cute butterflys are punched with my Martha Stewart Punch and attached with a spot of Glossy Accents so that their wings are left free and a stamped greeting, Craftwork Cards candi (which I'm hoping to stock in the shop soon) and gems to finish.



The second card is pink bazzill for the background, to which I've mounted a piece of green spotty paper to the top half and flower paper to the lower half (both from the Lime Twist Life of the party pad ) with all the corners rounded and the edges inked with distress ink. I cut a strip of brown Lime Twist paper (which is actually the reverse side of the flowery paper!) and punched the edge with my Fiskars border punch and added it across the join. I tied a piece of grosgrain ribbon before attaching the whole piece to a white scalloped card blank and embellishing with a chipboard flower and finishing with craftwork cards candi and a greeting attached with 3d foam tape.



These 6" x 6" pads are gorgeous and perfect for making cards. You get 24 sheets of double sided papers in each pad ... 12 designs .... 2 sheets of each and the papers are good cardstock quality!

Right, I'm off to load some wooden stamps onto the Clearance section of the website!!

Have a Great Day!
