Hello there! I’m so happy summer is almost here. I’m so excited to share my projects with you this month. My first project was inspired by the Amy Tangerine product line. For this first project I share how to make your own day book. It’s a great way to use random pieces of designer paper that you may have laying around. I hope you try it out – it’s so simple.
Here’s a close up view of the various pages inside the album.
For my second project, I show a simple way to add an even coating of glitter to a stamped image. This is another simple technique and you get great results. It can be used on any stamped image, so I hope you are inspired to try it out. Sorry, my photo did not capture all the glitter but the video showcases the technique and all the ‘bling’!
My final project is a bonus project so there is no video tutorial, but there is the PDF handout. For this project I decided to create a two page scrapbook layout. I am happy to say that I was able to reuse packaging from some embellishments. I also was able to do some stamping. I hope you enjoy this layout and are inspired to get scrapping!
Washi tape, what is it? Essentially, it is decorative masking tape which is typically very thin, easy to tear off the roll and adhere to a project. This is a simple product with lots of possibilities. A wide assortment of decorative tapes come in an amazing array of colors, patterns, widths and styles to easily add flair to any project including cards, scrapbook pages, packaging and home decor.Colorful Japanese Washi tape from cutetape.com; image source cutetape.com
What can you do with this tape? Tear off what you want to decorate just about anything. Paper crafts are perfect of course, but you can expand your craftiness by adding some pretty tape to binder clips, packaging, and other projects around the house that are begging for a zing of color or your personal touch.

Decorate plain jars that hold your stash of embellishments, ribbons, buttons, or brads with some pretty tape – easy, peasy!
Oh, and cards? Why yes, of course cards are perfect candidates for a little Washi tape. A strip of tape behind the tag is shown on the bottom of this very pretty card by Lori Barnett…
Companies very familiar to the paper craft community have some excellent decorative tapes which easily coordinate with other products they offer. While they are not all tagged as “washi tape,” they are similar in style, and can be fun additions to your cards or scrapbook pages.

Is one pattern or one color on a role too restrictive for your creativity? The Section Smash tape from K & Company gives you a lot of different options on your projects with it”s multiple styles and colors all on one roll.
Tim Holtz tissue tape is a popular decorative tape that comes in different translucent patterns. Besides just adhering the tape flat on a project, see more ideas on how to create a tape flower or tape ruffle in Tim”s tissue tape ideas blog post from last year.

Of course, I must show you another cute little card that uses some Washi tape in a fashionable way- a couple torn, short strips accent the corner of this cheerful card…

I hope you’ve all enjoyed our 2 day spotlight on American Crafts and their fabulous Amy Tangerine Sketchbook Collection. When I first saw the patterns and colors in this collection I have to admit, I was intimidated. The colors? Totally my style! The patterns? Way different than what I typically work with. I took it as a challenge and a way to stretch myself creatively and push myself out of my comfort zone. The result? Totally loved it! What can I say…American Crafts absolutely rocks! You’ll definitely be seeing more projects using their products.
So now, before I announce the winner of the prize pack, I wanted to take a minute to thank American Crafts for their generosity both as an invited sponsor and for their donation of the prize pack.
Drumroll please…..
Congratulations Shannon – you are the lucky winner of the American Crafts Amy Tangerine Prize Pack Pictured above.

Before we jump into our projects and videos for today, let me once again introduce you to American Crafts:
American Crafts
Founded in 1994, American Crafts initially specialized in pen manufacturing — many of which are still part of the company’s lineup today — before transitioning in the late 1990s to creating innovative, well-designed products for the emerging scrapbooking industry. Since then, American Crafts has steadily expanded its product offering, becoming a trendsetter along the way. In 2009, American Crafts acquired the Pebbles Inc. brand, and in late 2011 the Crate Paper brand, to offer an even wider variety of products to scrapbookers. American Crafts is known for fresh, clean product design and friendly, personalized customer service. Products feature bright, vibrant colors and a contemporary feel, inspiring crafters to record their memories in a fun, sophisticated, and stylish way.
Product Spotlight: Cut Up 12″ x 12″ Rotary Blade Trimmer
In the video below I spotlight the American Crafts Cut Up 12″x 12″ Rotary Blade Trimmer – I’ll give you a close up of all the features, show you how to use it, how to change the blades as well as how to change the cutting bar.
In addition to our product spotlight, as we mentioned above, we’ve also created a number of different projects for you featuring the Amy Tangerine Sketchbook Collection. The projects for today were ones that I (Andrea) created. One of our aims in creating these projects was to show you how incredibly versatile this product line is, how quickly and easily you can put cards together using these products, and how many different looks you can achieve.
Floral Beauty Card
The Floral Beauty Card below is the perfect design if you need to create gorgeous cards in a hurry. The background of the card is the Harper’s Hue patterned paper – it already has the design and the gorgeous watercolored effect. I simply matted the paper onto coordinating colors of card stock and then used one of the Amy Tangerine Doodle Dimensional Stickers as my focal point. Finish it off with some black polka dot ribbon from the American Crafts Amy Tangerine Sketchbook Ribbon Value Pack and a bit of baker’s twine and you have a simple yet striking card!

Product Spotlight: Knock Outs Interchangeable Border Punch System
Knock Outs is an interchangeable border punch system that allows you to create a decorative border on your project, and then switch out the punch to add a different border to your next project. The picture below shows you the Border Starter Kit as well as all the currently available punch designs. I have a video tutorial for you that demonstrates exactly how to use this border punch system.
In addition to our product spotlight, as we mentioned above, we’ve also created a number of different projects for you featuring the Amy Tangerine Sketchbook Collection. Our projects for today were created by Tracy, and the projects you’ll see tomorrow were ones that I (Andrea) created. One of our aims in creating these projects was to show you how incredibly versatile this product line is, how quickly and easily you can put cards together using these products, and how many different looks you can achieve.
“Love….the Best Feeling” Card
Our first card for today is “Love….the Best Feeling” Don’t you just love the color scheme? We have a free video tutorial on how Tracy made this card below, along with a free PDF handout.
Our second card for today is this smile card in which Tracy cut out elements from the Lily’s Landscape patterned paper and popped them up on her card using dimensional foam. Such a great way to use patterned paper that you may feel is too busy to use on it’s own.
Paper Crafter’s Library members can access the video tutorial and handout for this Smile card here. (You must be logged in to access this page.)
Accessories: Sketchbook Foam Thickers (American Crafts); black rhinestones (Kaiser Craft); Primary Ebony Super Fine embossing powder (WOW! Embossing); embossing buddy, paper snips, Stampin’ Dimensionals, bone folder (Stampin’ Up!); Heat It! tool (Ranger); Tape Runner XL (thermo-web)
Thanks So Much Card
In Tracy’s Thanks so Much Card, she create the focal point of her card using the Sketchbook Remarks Fabric Stickers. In order to help them stand out on the vibrant patterned paper she uses on the card front, she matted the fabric stickers onto black card stock. The buttons with button twine adds the perfect finishing touch. The greeting itself was created using a Dymo Label Maker.
Paper Crafter’s Library members can access the video tutorial and handout for this Thanks So Much card here. (You must be logged in to access this page.)

Remember… Corkboard with Push Pins
Tracy’s last project for today is this cork board with push pins. What I love about this project (other than everything LOL) is that she cut the prongs off of the fabric brads and then stuck them to a flat top thumb tack to create a decorative push pin. Wouldn’t this be great for a tween or teen’s locker?

Many of you may remember that back in April we hosted a Graphic 45 Week on the Paper Crafter’s Library Blog. It was week filled with projects and inspiration using Graphic 45’s Tropical Travelogue Collection. We had such a great experience partnering with Graphic 45 and their design team, and such a great response from you, that we’ve decided to partner with them on an ongoing basis. The first and third week of every month one of the Graphic 45 Designers will share a project they’ve created here on the PCL Blog. Before I introduce you to our first Designer, I just wanted to take a minute to re-introduce Graphic 45 for those of you that may not be familiar with the company.
Graphic 45 is an award-winning scrapbook and paper crafting company— owned and operated by a mother and her two daughters.
Diane Schultz (pictured center)—Designer and CEO (aka mother)
“I’m passionate about being creative and eager to make it possible for others to find their creative voice. My background includes stints as a designer for, McCalls, Simplicity, Vogue/ Butterick, Mattel Toy Company and a host of other jobs that each, in some way, led me to what I do now. At 45 I went back to school and got my degree in graphic design— I named the company to celebrate that achievement.”
Aimee Filimoehala (pictured left) —Director of Operations
“I wear a lot of hats and love it that way. Business, marketing, operations, etc. have made me a pro at multitasking (aka juggling‑figuratively and literally). When we launched Graphic 45 just three years ago we had no idea what was in store, working together as a family has been an amazing journey that we all feel so grateful to be apart of.”
Charee Filimoehala (pictured right)—Director of Customer Service and Design Team Coordinator
“I joined the team a little over three years ago and haven’t looked back…what a life-changing experience this has been. I love working with and around creative people and products (not to mention I like my co-workers quite a bit). I spend my days working with our friendly stores and talented design team…the occasional trip to a workshop or tradeshow pretty nice too.”
Together we create vintage inspired crafting products that capture the flamboyant style of the 1920’s and 30’s – with vibrant color, irresistible texture and imaginative design to create products with decades-old appeal that’s both fresh and familiar. Let our products inspire your next scrapbook layout, card, album or home decor project.
***********
Here’s a picture of their booth at the CHA show which absolutely blows us away every year! The artwork inside is absolutely stunning and totally unique. At the last show as we were speaking with Diane she told us that many of the altered pieces were vintage finds which she and her team transformed with their gorgeous Graphic 45 products. We can’t wait to stop by their booth at the Chicago CHA and see what they’ve got in store this year!
Here’s a picture of the Graphic 45 team – they’re always dressed in period costumes to complement the themes in their collections – every day of the show brings a new set of costumes. The ones shown below were for their Little Darlings collection.
Graphic 45 Designer Alberto Juarez
Our first Graphic 45 Guest Designer for this month is Alberto Juarez. Alberto is part of the 2012 Graphic 45 Design Team.
You can see Alberto’s fabulous project below, but first, here is a little more about Alberto:
I’m a guy from Spain, I’m 24 years old and I have been doing scrapbooking for over two years. I discovered scrapbook totally by chance as I wanted to make a special gift. I wanted to make a diary for a trip (I love to travel) and that’s how I discovered the wonderful world of scrapbooking. My style is vintage, totally a classic vintage Victorian European style. I also enjoy working with bright colors. The vintage bright colors are perfect and of course there is no other brand besides Graphic45 that offers all of that.
Fun Circus Layout
In this layout I chose a picture of my nephew, who is laughing all the time. It was so much fun as there was a clown next to him, hence I decided to choose the Le Cirque collection, because the colors are so fun. This expresses exactly what I want to transmit. The idea of working with frames in which I tell the story was made easy with the Graphic 45 papers as there are so many elements you can cut apart and use.
*******************
I would like to extend a warm thank you to Alberto for sharing his wonderful layout with us! Please take a minute to stop by Alberto’s Blog and of course the Graphic 45 blog to check out all their amazing creations!
Today I’m so thrilled to welcome a special Guest Designer to the Paper Crafter’s Library Blog – Ashley Cannon Newell! I have been a long-time follower of Ashley’s, absolutely loving her style of paper crafting….and I just know you’re going to love the projects she is sharing with us today! But first, let’s get to know her a little bit more…
I’m Ashley and I have a passion for paper crafting, photography, fashion, and trying new recipes in the kitchen. I have always been interested in the arts since I can remember. I started my first scrapbook in high school and that was long before any industry focused products were available. I started blogging in 2008 after discovering the paper crafting online world. Currently, I design for Papertrey Ink and also run a challenge-based eZine. When I’m not in my studio, you can find me at work (yep, gotta day job), photographing a wedding, surfing the Internet, or watching a Lifetime movie. I’m really honored that Andrea wanted me to guest design for Paper Crafter’s Library! I hope you enjoy my cards!
Celebrate Cards
For the first card, I used patterned paper and stamps to come up with a design.
Instead of putting away all of my supplies, I thought it would be a good time to challenge myself to use the same materials to generate another card with a different design.
So, I made the second card with the scraps from the patterned paper (you can see in the video) and just about all the same stamps and inks and paper. I think this is a great way to make multiple cards in one sitting and will definitely challenge myself to do it again in the future!
If you are more of a visual person, you can view the video below to help you create the Celebrate card above. I hope you enjoy it!
Please take a minute to check out Ashley’s Blog and follow her on Facebook to find out more about her and see her wonderful creations!
