I Heart Crafting Banner

This month's Emma Jewell Crafts box was loaded with goodies about the love of crafting.  There were a few really fun pieces like pom poms, sequins, clothespins, and a 'craft addict' pin. I turned these items into a place to hang my daughters drawings and crafty projects.   I used twine and a yarn needle to thread   pom poms and sequins. Then, I clipped on the clothespins and used them to hang the big card that comes in the box as well as the pin and my daughter's recent drawings. She made a couple rainbows and cut them out. She loves crafting and color, just like me!  Hope you make something fun with your Emma Jewell Crafts Box! Leave me a comment so I can see what you've made :) 

Real girls use glue guns scrapbook layout

Hello! This month's Emma Jewell Crafts box is full of colorful elements that are perfect for celebrating our crafting hobby. I created this layout using the paper, stickers, tape, journaling cards, sequins, and even the bag they came in! It was my first time using the adhesives in the box and I really liked them. Especially the liquid glue. It dries clear and adheres quickly. The photos are of my daughter and her craft projects at school. She was so excited to use hot glue for the first time. Don't be alarmed, they have a special glove and the teachers help. In this layout, I'm celebrating her creations and her love of crafting. I used the holographic tape and the bag as a mat for my photos and I love the way these bright layers show case the photos. The contents of this box worked seamlessly with my current scrapbooking supply stash. That's always important to me because it allows me to use up my stash and make room for more goodies.

Going to Mars! Scrapbook layout

Hello Fellow Glitter Enthusiasts! I was so excited to receive my April kit. I combined it with some bits from the shop to create a scrapbook layout.  I've been wanting to document our names going to Mars on the Insight mission last year but none of my supplies inspired me. When I looked through my box, it just hit me and I went looking for our 'tickets.' The April travel themed box plus the space themed supplies in the shop are the perfect combination for documenting this!  I used a neutral 12x12 background and added one of the A4 papers on top of that. To add some more dimension, I added foam dots behind some of the stickers. I used my old fashioned scalloped edge scissors to create the border strips out of the rectangular sticker strips included in the kit. I like that these stickers can be punched and die cut to add more embellishments to your projects. I finished off my layout with some sequins. Glue dots are my favorite for attaching
