In search of a Creative Team

February 17th, 2009

I really need to get a creative team together for my digi products at Two Peas in a Bucket. If you are interested or know of anyone who is interested, please post a comment with a link to your layout samples. Here is a cute layout I did with my new Organics line – I am so loving those botanical brushes

New Digi Kits – Organics

February 17th, 2009

I have been having so much fun designing digital products for Two Peas in a Bucket. I wanted to share my newest releases with you. Here in San Francisco, the grocery stores cannot use plastic bags. Because of this, I have a huge pile of brown paper bags in my kitchen. I try and reuse them when I remember, but I still have a giant pile.

Those brown paper bags were really the inspiration for this line as you can tell from this full shot of my favorite paper. I love the stamped botanical edges. Such a fun paper! I love the idea of things being organic and I hope you love this line of products!

Really amazing paper-crafted flower

You have to see this tutorial -- I love the whole "diamond glaze" craze

What is better than dangly hearts?!

Julie’s projects are sure are beautiful to look at. I love her unique, slightly grungy style and all the inspiring ways that she uses paper crafting products.  Be sure to check it out and leave a comment letting her know you found her here. 

 

Free Kids Valentine Cards

February 11th, 2009

I posted a week or so ago about the Card Nirvana free valentine’s, but I wanted to share some of Carina’s photos of her daughter making the Valentine’s to take to preschool. You have one more day – and if you haven’t bought any at the store yet, don’t go! They will only have super lame ones at this point.

Just go to Card Nirvana and download the free valentines, print, cut, sign, add candy. Done! And oh so cute!
