Layout: Sweetest Flower

I taught this layout as a class at the Paper & Co Show in France and I had a lot of fun seeing the different outcomes of this layout. The photo shows the youngest of my three godsons- such a cutie :)

Ich habe dieses Layout bei einem der Workshops bei der Paper & Co Show in Frankreich unterrichtet und ich hatte eine Menge Spass zu sehen, welche unterschiedlichen Projekte bei den Teilnehmern herauskamen. Das Foto zeigt das Jüngste meiner drei Patenkinder – so ein Schatz :)

Last Minute Christmas Tags *SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES by 3L*

It is this time of the year where we are celebrating the holidays with our loved ones and as all of you I’m looking forward to spend lot’s of time with them. Nonetheless the last days before Christmas are filled with lot’s of tasks – and one of them is wrapping up the gifts and labeling them. I love doing my own tags for Christmas gifts

Christmas2010_01_3L

This year I used all kind’s of scraps that were still laying around my craft area to build up some tags and my trusty SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES by 3L products helped me creating them in a fast and easy way.

I used a sheet of Adhesive sheets and used it partly on the paper doily.

ChristmasTag_01

Then I sprinkled some German Glitter on top.

ChristmasTag_02

Then I sprayed a Tattered Angels Tag and as you need a very trusty tacky Adhesive to place it on top of the German Glitter – I happily took out my Crafty Power Tape.
ChristmasTag_03

Voila – the tag sticks perfectly on top of the glitter doily.

ChristmasTag_04

To create a rosetta I used some Tattered Angels Crepe Paper and the MyStik Permanent Strip Dispenser and run it around a scalloped piece of scrap paper.
ChristmasTag_05

To add some dimension I used the 3D Foam Squares to apply the scallop on top.

ChristmasTag_06

I also used the Click’n Stick Mounting Squares clear and folded them together to use them to stick down the flower on top. They are awesome to use for buttons as well.

ChristmasTag_07

There are many possibilties to create a Christmas tag – just count on your SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES by 3L products and all will be looking good ?

Australia…here I come :))))

Wow- that was a secret hard to keep. It was one of many but by far the biggest :)I’m so stoked  for my friend Sherry Mendoza who is on a new bussiness adventure with her “Your Creative Journey“s. And guess who will be the first teacher she is inviting to Australia? Little old me :))))) See the smile- that would go around my head if I had no ears- LOL

Wow- das war vielleicht ein schwer zu hütendes Geheimnis. Es war eines von vielen, aber bei weitem das Größte :) Ich bin so glücklich, dass meine Freundin Sherry Mendoza  ein neues berufliches Abenteuer mit Your Creative Journey  wagt.  Und ratet mal, wer der erste Workshopleiter ist, den sie nach Australien einlädt? Ja- mein kleine Wenigkeit :)))))) Seht Ihr das Grinsen – ich würde ja im Kreis grinsen, wenn ich keine Ohren hätte – LOL.

Here is the workshop I will be teaching – hier ist der Workshop, den ich unterrichten werde:
