Christmas Memo Book

Wrapping up our week of festive projects is this cute memo book designed by DT member Stephanie Dang.

Stephanie Dang

Good morning! It's Stephanie, from paperANDi. I am just so sad to see that this is my last post for the year as a design team member of Imaginisce! It has been such a wonderful pleasure working with them! And, I hope that all my projects gave you great inspiration this year!

 With Christmas being just around the corner, sometimes- we need to jot down what we need to buy, gifts to buy, etc. With that in mind, I created a little memo/notebook to jot down those things instead of trying to remember everything all in our minds. I mean, we already have so much in our minds already, right?! :)

 For my memo book, I used all things from Imaginisce's collection, Happy Traveler. I started out with the grid paper, trimmed to 8 x 6, scored a line in the center, and folded it in half. I layered on the trimmed polka dotted paper (4 x 3.75), and topped it off with a light blue paper (4 x 3.5).


Then, I added the inserts by using white printer paper, trimmed to 8 x 6, and scored right down the center. Folded all of the inserts and attached to the memo by using a stapler. Add a few more detail, by either spraying or splattering a few ink mists along the memo. 

 Next, I added hemp along with some cute little gingerbread and candy cane embellishments. Using Imaginisce i-Bond glue gun to secure those pieces unto the hemp. 

Using your favorite electronic cutting tool, cut out assorted size snowflakes approximately 2" and less. Then, I attached them to the memo book by using a few dimensional adhesive along the way.

Last, add some extra detail by using puffy stickers from Imaginisce Happy Traveler collection and Imaginisce i-Rock tool. 


 Hope you loved my project! Merry Christmas & Happy New Years everyone! 


Supplies: 
Imaginisce: Happy Traveler Collection (papers, puffy stickers); i-Rock tool; and i-Bond glue gun. American Crafts: spray mists (Studio Calico, Heidi Swapp).

Now who would have thought that our Happy Traveler collection would work for a Christmas themed layout??
Design Team member Suzanna certainly did and what a stunning layout it is!

Suzanna Lee

Hi there Imaginisce fans! Suzanna here today to share a Christmas layout that I created using the Happy Traveler collection! Yup, you read that correctly! I created a holiday layout using a travel collection! I took the red and green papers and bits and pieces and used those as the focal points on a white background. Check it out!

Do you remember these Christmas cards that I made a few posts back where I used the Colors of Christmas holly stamp? I made a few of them and had a few in reserve. Just one provided the perfect "tie in" for this layout that had a hint of Christmas subject matter and not just red and green.

I love these tags from the Happy Traveler collection and they made me think of gift tags so thought them fitting for a Christmas layout.

A little mist splatter and a die cut title pulled things together for some added holiday festivity and I decided to call it done. Keep the emphasis on the picture of my son, Mum and I waiting for Christmas mass to get underway.

I hope you and yours have a safe and happy holiday! Merry Christmas!

Supplies

Imaginisce - Patterned papers, die cuts: Happy Traveler, stamp: Colors of Christmas

Merry Christmas Card set

We've got another week of Christmas cards to share with you. Our DT has once again created some beautiful cards and we can't wait to share them with you.
So to start us off this week is Stephanie with her unique creations.

Stephanie Dang

Good morning! It's Stephanie, from paperANDi. Christmas is just around the corner and what better way to celebrate than to celebrate with a set of greeting cards!

For my first card, I layered and trimmed to different patterned papers from Imaginisce's "Perfect Vacation" collection. I added some gold mist and sprinkled a few black droplets all over my card. Then, I added a few stitches and layered on my alphabet thickers from Imaginisce's "Heartland Farm" collection. I added a few snowflake wood veneers. I completed the look by tying on hemp around my card and topped it off with a cute little reindeer button.

For my second card, I used papers from the same Imaginisce's "Perfect Vacation" collection. Basically, copying the same steps from above minus the last few steps. I added wash tape instead of hemp. I used a mixture of alphabet thickers from Imaginisce's "Heartland Farm" collection and mini-type stickers for my sentiment. I finished off my sentiment with a few hand written words. Then, I added a few wood veneers, Imaginisce's hot rocks by using i-Rock tool, and finished it off with a cute berry button.

Hope you loved my greeting cards and give these a try! 


Supplies:
Imaginisce: "Perfect Vacation" collection (patterned papers); "Heartland Farm" collection; i-Rock tool with hot rocks. American Crafts: spray mists (Studio Calico, Heidi Swapp); Wood veneers (Studio Calico).

Thankful layout

Love the playfulness of this layout created by design team member Stephanie.

Hi everyone! It's Stephanie, from paperANDi. I have a Thanksgiving inspired layout to share with you today featuring one of Imaginisce's latest collection, "Give Thanks"!

I started out with a white solid base for my background. Using Imaginisce's milk paints, I mixed and diluted the paints with water to create a watercolor effect. Then, I used a large watercolor paint brush and swirled the diluted paints in a circle right in the center of my page and outwards towards the edges of my page. 

"Give Thanks" collection topped it all off with some wash tapes, and Imaginisce's hot rocks.

  I hope you'll give this layout a try, and make sure you check out Imaginisce's full collection here: "Give Thanks" collection.

If you're into Planners then you'll love this project today!!

Stephanie Dang

Hi everyone! It's Stephanie, from paperANDi. I have a few planner insert ideas to share with you today featuring one of Imaginisce's latest collection, "Give Thanks"!

 I took out all my dividers and covered the front of it with my most favorite paper and embellishments from Imaginisce's "Give Thanks" collection. I trimmed all of the access paper. Using a single hole puncher, I hole punched the paper using the guidance from the dividers. 

Next, I took a few more selected paper from the same Imaginisce's "Give Thanks" collection, and repeated the same process above. I trimmed the access paper and used the dividers as guidance in hole punching. 

Last, I placed all of these dividers through a laminating machine. I trimmed all the access, hole punched my dividers, and inserted them back into my planner. 

 I hope you love my idea and give this project a try! Happy Autumn everyone!

Pumpkin Carving

Check out this amazing & colourful layout designed by design team member Stephanie.
Definitely not your typical Halloween themed colour scheme - but doesn't it rock?!

Stephanie Dang

Hi everyone! It's Stephanie, from paperANDi. I have a Halloween inspired layout to share with you today featuring one of Imaginisce's latest collection, "Give Thanks"!

You start out with a bold patterned base layered with a solid color card stock (white). I mixed up some Imaginisce's milk paint, but diluted it with water to make it more similar to watercolors. Using a die cut machine, I cut out lots of pumpkins using papers from Imaginisce's "Give Thanks" collection. 

Then I took a few of the die cut pieces from the Give Thanks collection, and started to move them around my pages until I found a spot where I like to place them. I added my final touches by using the i-Rock tool. 

Hope you love my layout and give it a try! Happy Autumn everyone!

Thankful

This fall themed layout using our new Give Thanks collection is full of incredible little details. We love it!!

Stephanie Dang

Howdy ya'll! It's Stephanie, from paperANDi. I have an Autumn inspired layout to share with you today featuring one of Imaginisce's latest collection, "Give Thanks"!

You start out with a solid base. In my case, I used the light gray background with the small little owl on the bottom left corner from the Give Thanks collection. I took two different colored spray mists and sprayed my layout sparingly. Then I added one or two more pattern papers to the background before I added my photos. 

Then I took a few of the die cut pieces from the Give Thanks collection, and started to move them around my pages until I found a spot where I like to place them. I added my final touches by using the i-Rock tool along with some sticker puffs from the same collection. 

Hope you love my layout and give it a try! And, happy fall ya'll!!! :)

Give Thanks Calendar Book

Design Team member, Stephanie, shares this darling idea on how to use pre-printed calendar book and decorate it to suit your fancy! Check it out!!

Stephanie Dang

Good morning! It's Stephanie, from paperANDi. I have a mini calendar to share with you today featuring one of Imaginisce's latest collection, "Give Thanks"!

You start out with an already predated mini calendar book. For this project, I used a free calendar that I received in the mail from making a donation to a charity.

I adhere my chosen patterned papers from the "Give Thanks" collection to the front and back of calendar by putting some adhesive glue and laying the front and back of the calendar flat down. I trimmed all the access paper away. I added a few more selected pieces of patterned papers from the same collection. I added a few stitching to part of my calendar. Then I embellished my calendar with dimension stickers and used my i-Rock tool to add some charm to my mini calendar. A really easy project, but super adorable!

Stephanie Dang

Hello! It's Stephanie, from paperANDi. I have another vacation layout to share with you, using Imaginisce's latest release, "Happy Traveler"! 

I started out with a solid white base layered with a patterned paper from Imaginisce's "Happy Traveler" collection. I added a few stitches along my layout by using a sewing machine. Then, I splattered some ink around my page. I used a store bought doily template and applied textured paste to the template. I pulled the template out and allowed the paster to dry. I cut out smaller pieces of patterned papers and layered it behind my photo. Using clear stamps from Imaginisce's "Happy Traveler," collection, I colored and cut out the stamped images. Last, I added some puffy stickers and wood veneers to complete my layout. 

I hope you enjoyed my vacation layout featuring Imaginisce's latest release, "Happy Traveler".

Hi! It's Stephanie, from paperANDi. I have a vacation layout to share with you today that's perfect for Imaginisce's latest release, "Happy Traveler"!

I started out with layers upon layers of assorted size patterned papers from Imaginisce's "Happy Traveler" collection. I added a few stitches along my layout by using a sewing machine. I splattered some ink around my page. Using papers from the same collection, I used my electronic cutting device to custom and cut the title. Before, I glue the title down, I took the negative sheet and used it as a template for my watercolors. I added a few finishing touches like puffy stickers and wood veneers from "Happy Traveler." And last, I used my most favorite Imaginisce's i-Rock tool to add some sparkling gems to my layout. 

I hope you enjoyed my vacation layout featuring Imaginisce's latest release, "Happy Traveler".

Back to School cards

If you own a die-cutting machine of some kind you are already familiar with the many designs there are available out there!
There's many back to school designs to choose from and they make perfect gifts for teachers.

Check out these cards by design team member Stephanie.

Stephanie Dang

Hi! It's Stephanie, from paperANDi, and I got two cards to share with you that would be perfect for teachers!

I created my base by using an electronic cutting machine and its compatible program to custom the card on solid card stock. Then, I cut out the top layer on pattern paper from Imaginisce's Heartland Farm Collection. 

Using glossy accent glue, I smeared the glue evenly on the top layer paper. I took some fine clear glitter, and sprinkled it on top and shook out the rest of the glitter back into the container. Let it dry. 

Last, I put the layers together and add finishing touch by using Imaginisce's Heartland Farm die cuts. I hope you enjoyed a few more pieces of inspiration to start out a new school year!

Birthday Calendar

Do you enjoy making cards for family birthdays, special events & milestones?  It can be overwhelming sometimes to remember all those dates but DT member Stephanie has created a fabulous & simple way to keep those dates in one handy place.

Stephanie Dang

Hello! It's Stephanie and I hope your summer has been fantastic!! I don't know about you, but I have a whole lot of birthdays to remember, making it quite easy for me to forget to make a handmade card! So... I've got a crafty solution!

To help me not forget to make any specialize gifts or handmade cards, I've printed out all the birthdays on a list. I grabbed my favorite papers from Imaginisce's latest release (Heartland Farm), I trimmed and layered a few patterned papers together, topped with my birthday list. 

I added a few simple touches with some alphabet stickers and other cute stickers. Then, I laminated my list- making it easy to mark off birthdays with a dry erase marker, and reuse the list every year. Last, I used my Imaginisce's Cordless Glue Gun and hot glued my button down for a little bit of detail. 


I hope I've given you some thoughts to make your life more simple. :)
