Transformation Tuesday: Custom Wedding Invitations

One of the biggest joys I get from being the Papercrafting Passionista is the custom orders that friends and family have requested. I'm sure you've noticed I've been a little on hiatus lately, and that's because I had an order for some wedding invitations that took up majority of my free time this month. I am excited to share my creations with you here, exclusively for my Blog Readers!

Here they are:

I used a retired Thinlit Die from the So Detailed Thinlits from last year's Occasions Catalog. I just knew I would have a use for that die someday! Ha! It was definitely a labor of love, hand-cutting 250 of those gates! And it also wore on my Big Shot Plates to the point where they snapped in half! BUT, OMG, so worth it! And I would do it all over again!

Here's what the invitation looks like disassembled:

I did all of the graphic design work, too. So that RSVP Card and the Information Card was all created by me. I even hand-stamped the hearts on the Information Card and the Medallions. Those were from the Sealed With Love Stamp Set that was already retired from last year's Occasions Catalog. I will truly never get rid of that stamp set! I have used it so much!

Here's just the invitation:

And then a close up of the RSVP Card and the Information Card:

I am so pleased with how these turned out and the Bride was just "obsessed" and she couldn't "stop staring at them!" (her words!)

So if you feel like you need a little Papercrafting Passionista for your Special Occasion, please Contact Me and let's chat about how I can make something special just for you!

Tutorial Tuesday: Strawberry Pie

I am a little bit sad that Sale-A-Bration 2018 is coming to a close this month. Stampin' Up! has had some amazing products to give away this year and I have seen some really creative uses for extending their life! Erica Cerwin of Pink Buckaroo Designs is no exception! I saw her use the Basket Weave Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and make a pie card! It was so stinking cute, that I just had to CASE (Copy And Share Everything) it and share my interpretation with my Papercrafting Passionista Friends! PS: The Basket Weave Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder is a FREE Sale-A-Bration item!!! So you can get this adorable embossing folder with a $100 purchase (it's a part of the Blossoming Basket Bundle, which is a $100 Reward) and the embossing folder is carrying over to the new 2018-2019 Annual Catalog! So you'll be a step ahead of the new products! Wow! Here's what I used to make this sweet card: Supply List: Fruit Basket Bun

Top 10 Tuesday: 12 Days of Christmas Movies

Well, so instead of a Top 10, I'm changing it to a Top 12! Because I love The Twelve Days of Christmas and I love Christmas movies and why not combine both together to make it 12 Days of Christmas Movies!? I suppose we each all have our own opinions as to what Christmas Movies are *must-haves* on our Watch List, but I would like to think there are some that just generally required, by public agreement. So, here's my Top 12 Days of Christmas Movies List, complete with a FREE Printable so you can make this a Holiday Bucket List Item, if you'd like! I'd love to hear if your favorite movie made the cut or not! OH---and one more thing---these movies are certainly not listed in an specific order, they are more in the order in which I may or may not have already watched them... (#SorryNotSorry!) 12. The Santa Clause (1994) When this movie first came out, I was totally entranced by the interpretation of the North Pole, courtesy of Disney Magic, that I almost bel

Tutorial Tuesday: Fold Over Gift Box

Happy Tuesday, Everyone! I hope that your week is going well! Can you believe that August is half-way over?? I have seen lots of Social Media posts about kids already going back to school; the kids in my area go back next week! Eek! I imagine that means that there's a lot of last minute shopping, meal-planning, and organization happening for many households. (Or all households, really. I mean, everyone has shopping, meal-planning, and organization to do!) Well, I'd like to share with you a quick and easy 3D project that you may be able to utilize for this busy Back-to-School Rush! I shared it with a group of ladies a couple weeks ago at a Crop Event and it was huge hit! This multi-purpose Gift Box is super versatile! You can use it if you want to present your kiddo's new teacher with a little summin'-summin' to start the year off, as a special way to present a home-baked cookie treat to a loved one in their lunchbox, or if you need a vessel to hold some
