2nd post today -scroll down for Project Tuesday

Hi everyone...I have been so busy these past few weeks, that I haven't had a chance to post some of the really cute projects I have been working on!

The first one up is a Valentine box. I follow Kathy's site Paper Phenomenon, she has some really super videos! and she recently posted how to make this really cute Valentine box!

I used the Cricut Love Stuck Mini Cartridge for this box. I cut the 2nd heart on the keypad at 5 inches on red cardstock. I then sprayed the cut on the front with spray adhesive and covered it with MS red Flocking...I just love this technique I cut the blackout piece in White and then cut another black out in red for the bottom of the box.

Take a peek at Kathy's video, she shows you exactly how to make the sides of the box....I cut the word Sweetie from the same cart at 1 1/2 inches...I first tried the making it at 3 inches...and wow, it turned out huge! So you have to play around with it to make it fit. I then sprayed the word with spray glue and covered it with MS white fine glitter, to make it shine! I added a bow and the box was complete..

I am giving this to my husband for Valentines day, he and I are on WW's losing weight and I wanted to give him a special treat for Valentines day....the WW candies!

Now, on to the next project....

My oldest daughter is expecting her 3rd son in June...so I wanted to create a special little brag book to keep in my purse to show him off when he arrives....so again, after watching a video on Kathy's site (link above) I made this super cute little album...

Kathy shows you how to take a premade standard mini album, remove the inside pages of the album and replace those with a paper bag album. This is such a fun idea! When I saw this, I knew immediately, this was the type of album I was looking for!







I used New Arrival cart for most of the cuts in this album. Each page has a place for tags which can be used for journaling or additional pictures. I have yet to embellish the front of the album yet...I will do that soon...but I wanted to show you all the really cute stuff Kathy has on her site.

That's it for now..I will post some more later....thanks for looking!
