This month’s New to You Designer is Colleen Lynch at Digidesignresort – with her kit collection Timeless Keepsakes. I made this treasure chest using a wood grain paper from the kit.
In this project – I also created the keyhole for the chest – I think it just needed that little detail. I learned a new technique for “cutting out” papers digitally to create that keyhole effect – and I love how it came out!
This month’s gold member featured designer for Digishoptalk is simply.scraps by Laura Banasiak. The kit – Lucky in Love – strikes me as the perfect combo of doodley, lovey, and St. Patrick’s Dayey. I used lots of mounting tape and some yellow ribbon that I am just loving to add some fun accents to this card.
I love how this turned out – I used my Bind-It-All to make a pocket calendar using New Year, New Me by Jenn Barrette and Everyday Moments by Jenn Barrette and Lauren Grier. The templates for the calendar are resized from Geeky Diva’s 2011 Calendar Grid Overlays.
Here’s the back:
And here are some of the pages – I even went up to February of next year because I always seem to get into the swing of calendars a bit late!
