10 from 3 Card Workshop and a Contest!

I just released another new paper crafting workshop on Craftsy.com!  This is one for all of the card lovers out there - especially those with limited time, or limited supplies!

You can make 10 cards with just 3 sheets of 12x12 paper and 10 card bases.  I used supplies from Close To My Heart, but you can use any supplies you have on hand.  Don't believe me?  Check it out:

Click HERE to purchase this template.

Additionally, it's been a while since I've done any kind of blog candy, or give away on my blog.  So I'm going to do that!

Purchase my template above, make a set of cards, and send me a photo of your completed cards that I can post on my blog (you may watermark your photo if you desire).  Email the photo (high resolution please) to nonapearl@firebin.net.

Complete all this by TUESDAY, FEB 28th.  I will post the photos to my blog on the 29th, and randomly select one of the entrants to win this collection of new CTMH stamp sets seen below (a $72 value!!)  

Contest open to anyone.  Shipping of the stamps is included if winner is a US residents.  Resident of other countries must pay shipping to be determined by zip code.

October Template of the Month - Mischief

Are you feeling a little mischievous?  How about a little spooky?  It won't be long until all the neighborhood rug-rats (mine included) will descend upon us in search of treats!

Do you know what you're doing with your Halloween photos this year?  How about making a delightfully creepy mini album for them?  Better yet - how about making TWO - one to keep, and one to give to grandma!

My latest template is here and it features the Mischief papers, Midnight felt shapes, and Newsprint Rub-ons from Close To My Heart.  Best of all, you can make 2 mini albums with just 1 pack of Mischief papers!

The Mini Albums have 10 pages, and 3 pull out tags for additional photos.  The template includes 7 full color pages of cutting diagrams, photos of each page, and detailed assembly instructions.

Here are some detailed shots of the inside of the album:

September's Template - Typeset

Well, my September Template has finally made it's (delayed) arrival!  Thank you all so much for your patience.

September was a very busy month for me - my oldest went back to school, I was knitting and sewing for the market during the week, then working at the market every Saturday, I published 2 new knitting patterns, and I cut into my "work time" by about 4 hours every night.  (Pregnancy makes me VERY tired.)

But, now I'm back and I have a FANASTIC template to share with you all.  :)  It's one that I'm most proud of, and I hope that you all enjoy.  If you are frugal, or enjoy teaching to groups, you will love this template too.  The cutting is simple and fast, and there is very little waste with the paper you cut, but LOTS of leftovers!  In fact, just by supplementing a few sheets of cardstock, you can make BOTH projects (cards and mini album with box) TWICE with one paper packet!

Check it out!

And here's some close ups of the details:

With this template you can make:

An accordion fold "Year in Review" mini album with matching box

8 cards (2 each in 4 designs)

This template can be purchased for only $5 by clicking here -->  

NOTE: Templates and Licenses are sold separately!

A limited teacher's license can by purchased for only $10 by clicking on the Typeset name,

New Template for you TOMORROW!

Look what I finished this morning!?!?  Yup - it's the prototype for a BRAND NEW TEMPLATE!  WOOOHOOO!!!!!!!

I'm super proud of this one.  It is JAM PACKED with a two HUGE workshop projects, and best of all - you only need 1/2 a paper packet to make BOTH!

Once nap time comes I'll be working on the template.  Hoping to have it 100% ready to go by tomorrow morning!  Keep checking back.  You are NOT going to want to miss out on this one.  :)
