 Hi everyone!  Phyllis here with a "Not so Mini" album for my Design Team Project.  I used Echo Park's *The Story of Fall*,  Echo Park's * Dots and Stripes* paper pack,  Carta Bella Kraft Cardstock and Basic Grey enclosure magnets~all these items can be purchased at Country Craft Creations.  Take a peek at all the other items in the store too!

I used burlap for the spine,  LOVE texture!  Lots of Prima flowers and a few other embellishments for decorating the cover.
 I cut out leaves using my Flower Shoppe Cricut Cartridge and used those leaves throughout the album.
 I created lots of pockets in this album,  at the bottom of this post you can go to my youtube video to see the entire album.

Design Team Explosion Boxes

I'd like to share these two Explosion Boxes I made for the Design Team as well as orders.
 
 
 
 
What fun it was to create this explosion box using Graphic 45 Rare Oddities collection. There is so much space in this box for photos and/or journaling. Lots of inter-actives are in this box as well making it a nice surprise.
 
 
 
 
This explosion box I made using Graphic 45 ABC Primer collection. Again, I love this collection, so retro, so easy to use and what beautiful graphics and colors this collection has. I decorated a chipboard round box using some of the collection for an added surprise.
 
All photos of all the 'pages' of these boxes can be seen on my blog:  www.crosseyedcricketcreations.blogspot.com
 
Materials:
* Graphic 45 Rare Oddities Collection
*Graphic 45 ABC Primer Collection
*Scortape 1/4" & 3/8"
 
The materials to make these boxes are available at:  www.countrycraftcreations.com

Bo Bunny Sleigh Ride Sympathy Card

Hello Country Crafters! Crystal here from CrystalThompson.net to kick off the card making inspiration. Today I am showing you a fun card I made using the new release from BoBunny "Sleigh Ride".

This card is full of Bo Bunny goodies! To start we have a card base using Carta Bella White Linen card stock.


Next, we have patterned paper from Bo Bunny in Rustic.


This is embossed using Bo Bunny's glitter paste in Gold.

To finish off, I heat embossed the sentiment onto a piece of Carta Bella White Linen.

I absolutely love this card, its elegant and easy to make!

Currently Country Craft Creations is one of the few places Bo Bunny's Sleigh Ride is available purchase.(No need to wait, or pre-order).


I sure hope you enjoyed this card and it inspires you to make something special.

Thanks for joining me!

Design Team Call

I know there is a lot of excitement happening around here! The process of picking new members to join Country Craft Creations Design Team is not one I handle myself! I have used other bloggers, crafters and even design team members from other teams such as BoBunny and Carta Bella.
As many of you know I live within 30 mins of some of the most popular companies, Carta Bella/Echo Park, BoBunny, Basic Grey, Simple Stories, Graphic 45. Just to name a few. Even with all of these and more wonderful manufacturers right here in the area, more and more LSS are or have closed. We rely heavily on the internet these days.
This is why a Design Team (DT) is so important in spreading the word about these wonderful companies. It is not just about helping the little store stay operating, it is also about helping these wonderful companies stay in business.
To help that process a good design team is essential. When selecting the team we look for everyday crafters who are just like you and me. We look to the big companies teams for inspiration then as a team we create for you! The goal is to show the beginner or experienced crafters how to create, give ideas teach techniques etc.
OK!!!!! The word is coming in, I will be back with the newest members to Country Craft Creations DT smile emoticon
