Shoestring Scrapbooking - Design Team - Reveal 7

Though my time on the design team at Shoestring Scrapbooking officially ended at the end of June I have still been creating goodies with my kits that I received.... they were packed full of all sorts of different stuff... thanks Canica for spoiling me.

Today I have some "off the page" items to show you...

First up is a To Do board..... I painted this with Making Memories paints.... even did some spongining!  The arrows are all from the Kaisercraft paper that was in my kit and I also painted the chipboard bracket I received.  Added in a blackboard area for writing on chores.

This chipboard frame was so zooty that I didn't want to use it on a page.  So I combined it with the wooden car... covered both with scrap paper, added a photo and made a stand for it.... one photo frame all made.


Another item I received was this chipboard handbag.  I was dithering as to what to do with it and decided to make it into a gift bag.  Covered the inside with a plain maroon colour and the outside with the beautiful floral paper.  Then tied some ribbons around, added a buckle and one gift bag made.

Most gifts require a card, so I made this birthday card for a special friend.  Inked and embossed the chipboard chandelier, then added a rubon.

Hope these items give you some inspiration too to try out off the page items.  Remember you can get most of these items at Shoestring Scrapbooking.
