Tracy's January Design Team Reveal

Good Thursday Morning everyone! This is Tracy here to share with you the fun I had with Echo Parks Winter Park Collection. Echo Park is one of my favorite companies and I loved the colors in the winter line. It has been so fun for me to work with winter papers since here in East Texas we don't get much snow, but the last two years have been really good to us in spoiling the kids with a few snow days.

I loved the embellishment stickers that came with this collection and used them to cluster around my banner.

The blue and white tones were the perfect match for the shadows created by the trees in my photos, and I loved the border strips that I was able to cut apart and layer on this page.

Thanks for looking and don't forget you have until the 15th to take advantage of the the Inventory Reduction Sale going on in the store and get 65% off of your entire order with code IRS65.

Lisa's January Design Team Reveal

Good morning!

It's Lisa here today to show you my Design team projects. I am a huge fan of Echo Park and when I opened these Winter Park papers, I was giddy with excitement! I heart Echo Park, always have, always will!

The first thing I made was this snowflake banner:

A few close ups:

Have I told you how much I love these papers yet? lol

I loved the snowman and the cute mitten banner and just had to use them on this layout:

Next I altered a frame. I took a frame I purchased at Michaels, painted it white, sprayed it with Glimmer Mist added Glossy Accents, stamped snowflakes with paint and added paper and embellies:

Did you notice this cute mitten banner too? That was a favorite of mine from the sticker sheet.

Lastly I made a fun card:

Hope you have enjoyed my projects as much as I had making them!

Mini Desk Calendar

Good Morning and TGIF!! Today I want to share with you a desk calendar that I made for my step daughter. A couple of weeks before Christmas I saw these great picture frames at Michaels and got this idea. My intention was to complete it before the holiday and give it to her as a gift but I had no creative time through the holiday so it ended up being a few days late.

I first started with my supplies: 12 wallet sized pictures, wide frame with glass out, 2 large binder rings and small 12 month calendar pages (which I printed for free from the internet)



I then cut my chosen papers to the desired size ( mine are about 5 x 7 )



and then I trimmed the calendar pages to fit my mini-layouts...


I ALWAYS ink everything so this was no exception. I also used my crop-a-dile and punched two holes at the top to fit the binder rings.


and I created 12 mini-layouts! Here are a couple of the completed pages. (this was the fun part!!)

From all of my excitement for finishing the project, I forgot to take a picture when it was completed. :( I hope that you can still get the idea. I am planning on making one for myself soon! It came together really quickly and made a great gift which can be customized to give any time throughout the year! If you give it a try yourself, please share!

I also have a winner to announce from the December sketch... wendycrowe!! Congratulations! Please email me your address so that I can get your prize out to you!!

Have a terrific Friday and an amazing weekend and Thank You for taking the time to visit My Scraps & More!!
