CKC Manchester

CKC was an adventure. Kim Hughes was a delight to work with at the Paper Crafts make and take booth. I was also fortunate enough to take a class with her and then stick around and be her assistant at another. Great fun. Below are the cards from the make and take as promised.










I wish I knew who was responsible for designing these as the idea was brilliant. Everyone who made them was excited to be able to use their left-over number stickers! The numbers are making the scallop above LOVE. Use 8 and 3 on their sides and you will get more bumps. The numbers 0,9,6, finish the strip.
Card 2 uses the left over scraps from punching the hearts. The yellow goes inside the card and peeks through the punched or cut heart. The red is also left from card 1, after trimming a thin strip for the scallops and punching the heart. Use letter stickers on the white stock. It gives a nice embossed look. A great idea to use left over stickers!
Now that you have used all the stickers, what do you have left? A sheet of sticky paper with letter holes. Find the part with the h and i together and cut an area big enough to cover the card front. Now simply color in the h and i with the color of your choice. Add a brad for fun.

What a great way to use up a bunch of scraps and recycle the sticker sheets! Perfect projects for EARTH DAY week!

Thank you Paper Crafts for the opportunity.

What a great way to use up those scraps that otherwise seem to sit around for years (if you're like me and can't bear to throw them away). Bet you had fun at CKC.
