RSVP by Valerie


Valerie Mangan loves working with our new Glassine Bags on her layouts. Valerie says, "SRM has a size for every project - that is the answer to my crafty prayers! On this page I used a bag to store a collection of little printed notes I put in my son's lunch box everyday. Each day I put one in the lunch box with my own little handwritten note on the back. I never expected him to write back to me but he did. Now I look forward to them. They are sweet little notes that I can't bear to part with - so I'll use this layout to collect them."


"The glassine bag was perfect for storing the notes and my sheet of journaling. I embellished the bag with a die cut frame, twine and SRM school-themed stickers."


"Here is a detailed photograph of what is inside the bag - the collection of notes and my journaling sheet. Love that the bags offer a location to hide journaling; I don't need to worry about squeezing it onto the layout if I have a lot to say."


SUPPLIES:
Glassine Bag, 2 3/4" x 4 1/4" #65001

Silver Wedding Anniversary Gift by Jan


Jan Tatomir had a clever idea to alter a silver frame with new SRM product as a Silver Anniversary Gift for friends. Jan used stickers from We've Got your Border Wedding, Sticker Stitches, and Stickers By The Dozen Wedding, to decorate the front and sides of the frame.


For the medallion, Jan used a round label from the Labels By The Dozen Wedding and a flower sticker from the Stickers By The Dozen Wedding.


The finishing touch is a border sticker from We've Got Your Border Wedding.


Join us tomorrow for a fun layout by Valerie using a Glassine Bag as an element on her page. See you then!

Glassine Bag Mini Album by Aimee


Mini albums are a perfect way to showcase a special event. Aimee Kidd did just that when she assembled this cute mini using our Glassine Bags. Aimee says, "My baby girl just turned 6 so I wanted to create a mini album for her. I took 6 of the medium sized (6 1/4" x 3 3/4") glassine bags and used them for the inside pages of my mini, and used my Bind-It-All to bind the album. I used a border punch on every other bag and I was greatly surprised to find that the SRM bags punch so nicely! My punches didn't even stick! Love 'em!"



Be sure to click on the photos for a closer look at Aimee's details. Our Desingers have created some fun mini albums over the years, see them HERE!

Sticker Stitches Tutorial by Jamie


Jamie Cripps was asked to do something unexpected with our new Sticker Stitches. You'll love the concept she created - sticker cross stitch! Jamie went above and beyond and provides us with a fun-to-make love-themed card, done with stickers!  You can create all kinds of looks using this tutorial as a guide.



1. Cut a small piece of paper for your background and select the sticker you want to use. I used the flower patterned sticker from SRM's Sticker Stitches. Cut a strip of 12 from your stitches and adhere about 1-1/2" down from the top edge of your paper.

2. Cut another strip of 12 and adhere it on your first strip. Note: I wanted to keep my pattern close, so I adhered my sticker on top of the existing sticker, lining up the edges of the pattern. You can space them out more for a different look!

3. Next cut a strip of 10 and adhere it under the second row as shown.

4. Cut a second strip of 10 and adhere it under the strip placed above.

5. Next cut a strip of 8 and adhere it under your second row of 10 as shown.

6. Cut a strip of 6 and adhere is under your row of 8, centering.

7. Cut a strip of 4 and adhere is under your row of 6 as shown.

8. Finally, cut a strip of 2 and adhere it under your row of 4 as shown. This completes the bottom of the heart.

9. For the top of the heart create two rows above the first line of 12. First cut a strip of 4 and adhere it one pattern block in from the left edge as shown.

10. Next, cut a second strip of 4 and adhere it in one pattern black from the right edge as shown.

11. To finish the top, cut two 2 strips and adhere each above the rows of 4, centering as shown in the photo.

Valentine Tubes by Jan & Twine Winner


Our Designers love working with our Tubes! Jan Tatomir filled and decorated our Mini Tubes for special little gifts.

Jan says, "I decorated a set of mini tubes with Valentine stickers from Stickers By The Dozen and We've Got Your Borders. I filled the mini tubes with pixie stix, but many other Valentine candies would work. These could easily be used for a classroom Valentine exchange or left as a surprise on a teacher or co-worker's desk."

Cross Country by Corrie


(Say that 5 times fast!) We absolutely love the scrapbooking skills of Corrie Jones. This 12x12 layout shows her creative style, using SRM sports stickers.

Corrie says, "At the cross country banquet for my daughter this year, a couple of the parents for the seniors had put together scrapbooks for each of the senior runners. These albums had pictures of the kids for as long as they had been running for the school - some as many as 7 years. It was pretty cool and we all got a little teary thinking how these kids were going off to college next year. Well, my daughter is just a freshman and I thought if she was going to get a scrapbook her senior year, I needed to get going on it NOW. These parents had a day and created 5 books. No way I was going to get this whole thing done in a day! So I have started. And here is one page of it. Thank you SRM, for the Cross Country stickers!"





Love the way Corrie used a Glassine Bag on her layout. Are there sports stars in your family? Click HERE to see the huge variety of SRM sport stickers!

Glassine Bags by Amy!


Amy Duff immediately went to work when she received our latest release of new products, which included Glassine Bags!

Amy says, "I love the variety of bags and the quality is wonderful! The 5 sizes will definitely be a hit! I took the smallest glassine bag and made a handle from florist wire. Wouldn't this be cute hanging on a family member's door, or how about that neighbor that needs a happy note? I almost hated to cover the bag so I made two projects. One with a cover and the other shows off the beauty of the bag with just a little paper, stickers, and lace with twine."





Do have your hands on our Glassine Bags yet? Click HERE! They're available in five sizes and sold (at a great price!) in packs of ten. You'll love 'em!
