SPECIAL - now through September 10 at theHouseAcrosstheBay

This darling blue damask accordion book is FREE with any purchase at theHouseAcrosstheBay, only for our readers.  Just type PAPERCRAFTSTAR in the message to seller when you order !!

All we did was cut, add some liquid pearls, jewelry cording and alpha stickers.  A really quick 5 minute surprise !

We made a little pocket (from the Scroll Work CardMaker series,) added some lace and a flower, tied the jewelry cording in a little bow, and tucked in the "kiss."    How cute is that !

We would LOVE to see what you do with it !!

 

Use something metal, or try a full fledged steampunk theme !

Our design team this week all chose to use the full steampunk theme, BUT, yours only needs something metal.  Your choice !   Hope you enjoy the wide range we bring you !!

This week we are so pleased and excited to introduce two new members of our design team !   Jennifer Ferrell and Anitra Tovar have been participants in our challenges for a long long time, and we could not be happier to have them with us.  Next week we will be debuting their talents with our steampunk challenge !

Jennifer

My life is pretty simple. Work, home, grocery store is the norm. My "me time" is from 6-7 am on the weekends. The house is quiet, I can enjoy a cup of coffee and figure out what I'm gonna create.  My husband Chad and I have been married going on 17 years, together we have a 5 year old boy named Parker. I love art, baking, making crafts and gifts.  I'm an HGTV addict and Master Gardner. I think I would get the shakes if I didn't go to Lowe's every weekend. I started blogging to learn about new techniques and products. I wanted to find inspiration to scrapbook, but find I love making cards more. Entering challenges has introduced me to the encouragement and kindness of new friends! I'm thrilled to be part of the Papercraft Star Team!  Visit Jennifer's blog and say hi !

Anitra

Hello!  My name is Anitra and I'm a stay at home mom to two small children.  I live in Central Texas with my husband Matt of 13 years!  Although I started out quilting,  I absolutely love paper crafting.  I often use fabric and trims in my creations that tend to be more on the vintage style:  however I do enjoy a bright whimsical creation from time to time!  I look forward to being a part of the Papercraft Star design team and hope you will join me on this amazing journey!  Come visit me at my blog  Stamping While They Sleep.

It is a back to school challenge !!  Use the picture as inspiration, if you choose.

Our team this week completely ignored the photo (lol!) and everyone chose a little different aspect of school to highlight.  This is one of the best design team reveals Papercraft Star has ever had - unique, lots of fun, and lots of ideas !  We hope you will join us this week with YOUR ideas and creative talents !!
