If you visit our retail store you will probably recognize Heidi's smiling face. She is a fun employee, ready to help you find the perfect product. Not only is she a great papercrafter, she speaks German (among other languages), and is currently planning her upcoming wedding! She created a mini album full of great layouts to help you scrapbook your summer fun.
Today we are featuring this lovely card made by one of our giveaway winners, Melissa Sauls. We love the way she layered the ribbon, petals, and designer brads. Thank you for sharing, Melissa. We love to see everyone's creations. E-mail them to seiblog{at}shopsei{dot}com and you could be featured too!
We would like to introduce you to Jessica. She is an interior designer who designs many of the projects for club and writes instructions. You may catch a glimpse of her beautiful little daughter on some of the layouts she creates. We love the stylish way she dresses and her quiet sense of humor.
Jessica made these pretty Claire drink coasters. Here are her instructions:
Supplies: 4” x 4” glass squares copper foil tape (available at most craft stores or stained glass shops) paper die-cuts
Pick up 4” x 4” pieces of glass from your local glass shop. Mine cut them for me, no big deal.
Cut 4” x 4” pieces of paper – I used Claire Cut flowers out of the paper or use die-cuts, layer them on the 4” x 4” pieces Sandwich the paper between 2 pieces of glass Use copper foil tape around the edge of the glass to hold the 2 pieces together
Who knew making glass coasters could be so simple? Thanks for sharing, Jessica!
Today we are featuring Monika Wright and her Favorite Things book. We love the idea of having a neat little book handy to jot down your ideas. What a beautiful job she did with papers and embellishments from the Poppy collection.
Monika won one of our giveaways a while back and has sent us images of several projects she made with her goodies. Thanks Monika! We love to see everyone's creations. Just send them to our e-mail at seiblog(at)shopsei(dot)com and don't forget to enter March's challenge.
We would like to introduce you to Amy. She helps out in the Art Studio when she is not busy with college, writing, photography, or looking up random facts on her iPod Touch. She got this project idea from one of her favorite blogs, Apartment Therapy. It is really simple and all you need are a few supplies you probably already have.
Yep, you guessed it. Those are toilet paper rolls.
We are happy to feature two layouts created by Hilde (aka Scoobie) from Norway. We love how she used the Juliette collection. She took the floral papers and added pearls & doilies to made them look like snowflakes and flurries. For more of her SEI projects and details, check out her blog.
Here's what Hilde said about the Juliette collection last month: "When I saw the Juliette line, my first thought was Snow! Don’t ask me why, but I think it was some of the patterns which made me think of snowflakes, and the colors, too. Where I live, in Norway, we often have snow this time of year, at least quite cold (right now: -10 degrees C and 50 cm of snow)."
Thanks for sharing, Hilde! We love to see your creations. Just send them to our e-mail at seiblog(at)shopsei(dot)com.
It is crazy to think that Christmas is less than a month away. For many people the day after Thanksgiving means it's time to decorate for the holidays. If you are Jenny Chesnick it means you have been preparing for a while. Jenny sent us images of these wreaths she made using our WinterSong and Christmas Mint collections back in October. Way to be on the ball! To see more of Jenny's creations, check out her blog (we especially like her house using WinterSong). Thanks, Jenny. Keep submitting your projects to us at seiblog(at)shopsei(dot)com. We love it!
For those of you who are not quite as ready for Christmas as Jenny, be sure to check back next week for our annual 12 Days of Christmas. We will have a different wreath idea and so much more. Don't miss it!
Happy Thanksgiving! We hope you will have a wonderful day full of family & food. What are you thankful for? We are thankful for you. The blog wouldn't be the same without you. We appreciate all of your encouraging comments and e-mails.
Today we are featuring a few of Monika Wright's projects. Monika is a busy mom of three. She graciously thanked us for the products she won from one of our giveaways and even sent us images of what she created and here they are! Above is an album she made using the oasis collection. Below is a 2009 December Daily album and Santa's list envelope embellished with our Christmas Mint collection. Thank you, Monika!
We love to see your creations. Just send them to our e-mail at seiblog(at)shopsei(dot)com. We will feature some more reader's projects soon!
Although the first official day of winter is not until December 21, in my mind fall is over after Thanksgiving or the end of November. So, I thought we should show you some of the beautiful autumn creations that have been submitted to us by our readers before it is too late. This one would be a lovely Thanksgiving decoration. It was submitted by Laurie Cinotto, a crafter and craft writer. She created this project, using the Moravia paper collection, for the wedding blog, The Bride's Cafe. For complete instructions follow this link or the link on her blog. Thanks for sharing, Laurie!
