{Friday Fun} with Heart Basket

The girls had a fun time playing with this heart basket. I was featured at Scrap n’ Art back in February and this was the template they received with their subscription. But this isn’t only good for Valentine’s – it would be perfect as an apple for Teacher Appreciation, or filled with goodies for Mother’s Day.

Take a look at what the girls created:

{Monday Mix} Tagged & Pinterest Inspiration

I thought I would just quickly share to go check out the Scrap Orchard blog today… and see a great post written by the Hybrid Bees. It talks about ways to create a quick hybrid project {and I am giving away a little freebie}.

Here is a look at the freebie – you need to head over there to get it though.

Now here are a few inspiration images on other ways to use your free tag template:

Hybrid Challenge: Banners, Flags & Bunting! Oh my!

Hi, Rebecca (ReboScraps) here to tell you about this month's Getting Hybrid challenge over at Scrapmatters. These challenges are a great way to get some tips about using your digi goodies to make real life pretties!

I picked Krisi's Banner Templates for my hybrid project. This pack includes 5 different shapes, and each shape comes in 3 sizes.

For my project, I used the rectangle, and also the one with the curvy shape on the bottom (in the preview, it's just peeking out there under the photo of the Happy Birthday banner) and created this little DREAM banner:

I often make hybrid projects to giveaway, whether it's a card or a little box for gift wrap, and this time I wanted to make something creative I can enjoy. I picked a scrap kit that matches my bedroom colors (Timeless Elegance by KimB.) On the panel for the letter "A" I added the quote by Henry David Thoreau that is also shown on the layout above:

"Let go of the past and go for the future.

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.

Live the life you imagined."

Come play along in the challenge and make something beautiful for you!

Easy Tags!

Happy Wednesday, everyone!  LeAnn, here (scaccogirl).
I wanted to give you a quick look at one of Krisi's products that I used recently
and was AMAZED at how simple it was to make a great-looking product.

My mom needed some tags for teddy bears that her church was giving away to people who are older and can't make it to church any more.  I knew of the perfect solution!

I used Krisi's Tagged It templates:

It was super-simple to add papers and elements to these tag templates.
The hardest part was choosing which one to use!  :)

There are a couple of ways you could potentially print these tags.  One way is to separate the layers and print, so that you have more dimension to the end-product.

Because these were being mass-produced (relatively speaking), I chose to keep the layers together and create printable pages with multiple tags.

No matter which way you choose to do it, I am sure you will find it easy to come up with a beautiful product!

Have a great day!
LeAnn
