Chalkboard by WRMK

I have a post up on the Scrapdoodles blog today featuring one of the latest (and greatest) chalkboard collections! I just had to have this collections, especially the Project Life cards! Swoon!! The design and coordinating patterns and colors are just stunning!

I have two projects using this line to share with you today.

First up, a gift box created using the yet to be released gift box punch board!! While at CHA I was fortunate to have it demonstrated for me. Not only was I fortunate to see it "in progress" but I had my very own piece of paper pull for me to create this box for this very blog post!!

 

I used a cut file and my Silhouette Cameo to create the bow on top. The heart has a couple of slits through which the lollipop stick (aka arrow) travel. A chevron from one of the sheets of patterned paper serves as the "quill" while a simple triangle makes the arrow head.

I used the same collections to create this layout. Have a million Project Life cards and don't know what to do with them all? Step out of the box (ha ha!) and use them on a layout. They don't have to be reserved for those special plastic page protectors!

I used two 4x3 and a 4x6 project life card from the collection here. I personalized the teal card by inserting black dots along the scalloped edge. I wanted a bit of contrast in the card. Worked well, don't you think?

I wanted to highlight Mia on her ice skates in this Instagram picture. I cut the phrase out of the inside of this sticker and just used the outer edge.

A fussy cut zig zag, a banner sticker, a banner and some thread wrap things up!

So what do you think of the gift box punch board? Pretty nifty, eh? I know they aren't in the store (Scrapdoodles, of course!) yet but they ought to be arriving soon! I think they would make Christmas gift giving quick and easy this year!

A very pretty page and a great reminder that we can use all kinds of things on our pages. I do love your colour scheme here and the little dots just make that edge pop.
