Lost & Found Christmas by My Mind's Eye

I got to work with one of the fabulous new lines by My Mind's Eye; Lost & Found Christmas. This paper is gorgeous! I don't usually enjoy scrapbooking Christmas (I know, I'm crazy), but this line makes it easy and really inspired me. I have four projects to share.

The first one is this layout.

I made two types of flowers; paper flowers (good tutorial here) and embossed ribbon flowers.  For the ribbon flowers I used a product called Ribbon Stiff (now being carried by Paper Pals). You paint it onto ribbon, let it dry, then you can punch your ribbon, cut it into any shape without fraying, and even use it in your die cutting machine or Cricut. I cut these out with my Cricut then used an embossing folder to emboss a polkadot design into them. *Note: I saw that Karen is offering a closs on different flowers. Check it out here.

 

My next project is this little matchbook type mini album. It's so simple and fun to make!

I also made two cards. This first one is a simple greeting card.

This next card was designed to hold a gift card inside.

 

There you have it! Now go check out the new products that have arrived at Paper Pals. You're gonna love them!
Pin It!
