The cream cardstock is cut at 4 1/4 x 5 3/4. The polka dot border is cut at 1 1/2. The little rosette is cut at 2 1/2 x 12. I believe the round scallop punch is a 3 inch Marvy punch.

August 30, 2011 Cuttlebug Acetate Key Ring Template

Good evening everyone!!! I had enough plastic to make some sample templates for a little key ring. First of all, I am sure what I did voids any warranty. lol jk In other words...you may want to use an old punch. I have the punch I used in one of the pictures. It cut through the thin plastic I had.  I used most (I didn't have enough plastic) of the embossing folders that I have to make sample templates. I used the crop-a-dile to punch a hole in the plastic pieces. I love that thing.....you can even punch holes in wooden popsicle sticks!!!:0) I am going to use this as a sample to see which embossing folder I want to use on a project.:0)

August 29, 2011 Composition Notebook -Redo-

Good Morning!!! I started working on a composition notebook this past weekend for my son's teacher. This is what I came up with... I found some composition notebooks at Target last week for $.40. I picked up four notebooks to bling up a bit. I am still working on the other three, I hope to post them this week. Instructions: For front and back of book: apply light layer of Mod Podge glue, place precut cardstock to notebook. Once dry, cut excess paper (if there is any). Apply a light layer of Mod Podge on both sides of notebook. This makes the notebook a little more sturdy. Once both sides are dry, embelishments are added. I ran the ribbon thru the xyron sticker maker and it applied to the composition notebook without a problem. I placed a ribbon on both sides of the notebook. The acetate was run thru the cuttlebug. I used a glue pen (ZIG) on the areas where the die was pronounced, then added MS glitter. Hope you all are having a great day:0) edit note...anyone not...

August 11, 2011 Cuttlebug Tip

Good morning! I started on a craft this morning and could not figure out what Cuttlebug embossing folder I wanted to use. I used a (recycled) piece of acetate  (plastic cover) and ran it through the Cuttlebug and this is what I came up with. I think I am going to do this with all my folders so I can use the same concept later. Have a great day!
