PaperHaus: Winter 2013

Have you seen the newest issue of PaperHaus magazine yet?  Just when I think these magazines can’t get any more gorgeous the next one comes out and blows me away all over again.  You can see projects from me on pages 39, 75, and 104. 

This week we are celebrating the winter release with our Winter Frolic blog hop event.  Head over to the PaperHaus blog to start today’s small hop or to participate in the rest of the days. 

One of the most common holiday gifts every year is a calendar for the new year.  Those pop up calendar kiosks at the mall are proof of that!  But I prefer to make my own.  This small pocket calendar for 2014 was created from the gorgeous Timbergrove collection from Fancy Pants Designs.  I love that the 4x6 brag pad from this line has all the month pages in it!  Super convenient! I kept the page embellishment to a minimum so it lays flat enough to keep in a purse. 

 

Thanks for joining us today for the Winter Frolic blog hop!  Your next stop is the fabulous Paper Issues blog!

Paper Pinecones

Did you know that Pink Paislee has a brand new exclusive paper collection pad at Michael’s stores right now called Noel?  Yep.  Pretty awesome.  It also happens to coordinate pretty well with a lot of the gorgeous Snow Village line. 

I crafted up these simple paper pinecones using paper from the Noel collection, a styrofoam egg, and a whole heck of a lot of tiny pins. 

You can see more Noel paper inspiration at the Pink Paislee blog!

I’m linking these up at the Paper Issues It’s Beginning to Look a Lot like Christmas issue and you should like up your holiday projects too! Someone’s gonna win a sweet $20 to the Paper Issues store!
