Couture Matchbox - The Piece by Piece Design Team Project

I made a video of my November Design Team project for The Piece by Piece. I used the Altered Matchbox and the Couture collection by Graphic 45 to make a shadowbox. The matchbox, papers, chipboard, flowers, laces and trims are available at The Piece by Piece store and in their etsy store.

Divine Wardrobe - The Piece by Piece Design Team Project

I was asked to be a local designer for The Piece by Piece in Fremont, CA. This store specializes in beautiful laces and trims as well as crafty embellishments for mixed media projects. For my first project, I altered a Wardrobe by KaiserCraft using papers from Prima Marketing's Divine collection and ephemera, lace, and trim from The Piece by Piece. See below for photos and a video link.

My Next Class - Ideaology Configuration Book

I'm teaching this class next month using the Ideaology Configuration Book. Also making a shabby chic version of this project.





Vintage Treasure Chest

I finally made a Kaisercraft Treasure Chest for me. Used lots of vintage papers and ephemera. Altered some of the boxes to be different sizes.






Holiday classes

Students are still requesting this Nutcracker Shadowbox class and the Advent Trees by Kaisercraft.
































Craft Caddy

Here are several pictures from the Kaisercraft Craft Caddy class, which I recently taught at Scrapbook Island in San Jose. Students are loving these projects. Papers and embellishments were mostly Prima.
