Today I am highlighting one of the colors of tags that Boxer has available for you. It's a really pretty pink that goes well with all the girl/Princess lines. I stamped the bottom of the card and added the printed chipboard and buttons on the side of the card for the embellishments.
Boxer supplies used: Pink dotted paper, Crowns paper, Birthday chipboard elements, Bright pink button mix, Pink tags, Feel better soon stamp.
Thanks for stopping by!

Ah....those good old days, when my daughter thought I was cool and wanted to go everywhere with me. Now that she is a teenager, scrapbooking these moments help make those rough teen years just a little easier. And speaking of easy, how everything Boxer coordinates together makes scrapbooking a breeze.

:) I'm still on a baseball kick! Here's a new card using the uber-fun new transparency of baseball/softball theme. I first stamped the baseballs all over the kraft cardstock and then added a strip of orange gingham then attached the transparency to a white base before attaching to the card. The card is blank inside, so you can add a birthday message or an invite or just a "because" message.
Boxer supplies used: Spring stamp set, Orange gingham, Baseball transparency

I had so much fun making these mini goody baskets using the Berry Basket Template from Hot Off The Press, Just Hatched, Lavender Dot, Green Gingham, Yellow Dot, Green and Blue Plaid, Red Dot, and Green Multi Dot Papers, Lavender Mini Brads, Red 1/8" Eyelets, and Red Mini Brads. I used stamps from the Ballet, Calendar Number Background, and Butterfly Garden sets to decorate the eggs. I also used a crimper to make the shreds for the inside of the baskets...now I just need candies to put in them.

I love black and white photos. They just seem timeless. Then the options to use any color combinations of papers and embellishments is limitless.
I used the Fold Back Swirls template to create the flowers and the Swirly Doodles template for the stems. The Girls Titles transparency is perfect as overlays on the photo.
Boxer Products used: Princess paisley, Green Gingham, Bright Pink dot, Bright green dot, Bright Pink Gingham, Princess stripe papers, bright pink grosgrain, jade and bubblegum mini brads, Girl Titles transparency, glue dots, and HOTP Fold Back Swirls template

So until next time...

I am loving this new twine. For this card, I used the twine as thread to sew the transparency into place. I used the stitching ruler to mark the holes. Then punched the holes with the 1/8" anywhere punch and threaded the twine through the holes. Sewing is a perfect way to attach transparencies because you don't have to worry about the adhesive showing. To hide the stitches, I completed the card front and then attached it to the card base. This is also a good tip when using brads - it hides the prongs from showing inside your card. With a small scrap piece, I tied the bow around the stitches.
Boxer Supplies: Green Houndstooth paper, green twine, Prayer Transparency, Stitching ruler, 1/8" anywhere punch, 5x9 cutting mat
Additional Supplies: Green cardstock, white cardstock, green ink pad
Happy Scrapping!
