Free Spirit Cigar Box Swap

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to share what I received in the Free Spirit Cigar Box Swap. My partner was Lorretta Harwell. She was very generous with me. I received the cigar box filled with 3 Websters Pages pin flowers and a stamp. She also gave me a coordinating scrapbook set that matches the cigar box, I also received a 6x6 scrapbook layout and a wonderful mini album. Can't wait to use the things I received in upcoming projects.

Thanks Lorretta.

Happy crafting,










Laurie

Siteman Mini Album Project

I am truly sorry to say I left out acknowledging my friends from Splitcoast Stampers as contributors to the project. I was giving albums from Diana, Joann, Carol, Danette and I hope I'm not leaving anyone out this time. I am so grateful you all participated in the project that is so dear to my heart. I plan to do another album project in the spring for Siteman patients. Please consider joining us making albums for the patients.

Origami Star box

I was playing around on You Tube and found a video on an Origami star box. My friend Kathy made one that I loved and I had to make one. It took about 5 minutes and is very easy to do. You need a bone folder to make the folds crisp and a square piece of paper. I used a 12x12 sheet of paper and it made a box with a 3 inch opening and 5 inch inside and bottom. Hope you try it.
