Hello crafty friends! Today I have a tag card featuring Scrapbook.com's exclusive dies. Scrapbook.com reached out to me asking if I would like to review the dies and so I received the dies in exchange for my honest opinion about them. I am working with the nested tags and nested stars dies. I decided to create a tag card by cutting two tags and then scoring the top of one and adhering them together. For more information on how I created the project check out the video below.
I really liked that the tag dies came with two options for adding the holes to the top of the tags. I felt like it gave more bang for the buck and adding the holes was super simple because of the design. The size range in the die sets makes them great for a variety of projects including cards, scrapbook pages or home decor. I found the dies cut easily through the thick cardstock that I used.
Disclosure: As always affiliate links are used when possible and these dies were sent to me for review.
Hello crafty friends! Today I'm here as part of Create a Smile's Comeback Party Video Hop. This video hop celebrates the first release from Create a Smile Stamps in quite a few months and there is a big celebration. There is a digital freebie, free gifts with purchase and a contest.

Hello crafty friends! Today I have another 6x6 Paper Pad tutorial featuring Echo Park Papers and guest designing for Scrapbooking with ME. Scrapbooking with ME is an online store that operates at a website and on Facebook. As part of my guest design series I have a discount code you can use in the online .com store (JG10). All links at the end of the post. I am obsessed with 6x6 pads because it is so easy to create a bunch of cards without using many extra supplies. I think their designs are adorable and I can easily whip up a bunch of cards for card drives like Cards for Hospitalized Kids. If you want more info on donating card please check out my Card Drive Resources page. So today I'm using the Echo Park Papers Summer Dreams 6x6 Paper Pad and Ephemerawhile making 25 cards! Once I had made the 25 cards there was very little left over and I really felt like I got the most out of my pad. To see it all in action check out the video.

Hello crafty friends! Today I have a post sharing some fun ways to use washi tape in the craft room sponsored by Unity Star. They are sharing a coupon for 20% off good until 8/31/17. Code: CEZU9RXC. In the projects I use their washi tape and their graphic chart tape. For directions on how to make these projects please check out my video:
I had a lot of fun with this variety pack and if you'd like to give it a try be sure to use the discount code to get an even better deal. As seen in the video:
5 Ways to Use Washi:
1. Decorate office supplies
2. Label items
3. Make a card
4. Make a matching envelope
5. Decorate storage containers
Washi tape cards are simple and even better when paired with a custom envelope.
You can use washi tape to customize your office supplies to match your room, your planer, your personality, etc.
I also love to use washi tape to label items in my craft room. So much more fun than boring white labels.
