Fabulous Folding Board

One of the many things shared at the 2017 Club Scrap Retreat was the Hammered Aged Copper Folding Board.


This super-sturdy board was a new medium for me to work with and wow, did I love it! It is perfect for all sorts of paper crafting construction projects. Pick up some in the Retreat "Pro Shop" soon as supplies are extremely limited.

Let's take a closer look at the folding board . . .


This paper product is 247 lb., making it heavier and more rigid than heavy cardstock, but lighter than matte board.

Card Folio

Check out Tricia's Card Folio Blog for the original detailed instructions on how to make this project. I decorated the cover and card set with the What A Ride stamps.




Gift Boxes

I created three ascending-sized boxes with the We R's Gift Box Punch Board. Simply tie the boxes together in a stack perfect for gift giving.



Card Box With Lid

This box was also inspired by Tricia's Vintage Botany Club Stamp Blog post. 






Gift Box Greeting Card

I've created this card design before. You might remember it from my Color Me Happy Blog Hop post

 




Memory Cube 

I had the pleasure of leading the Memory Cube workshop at this year's Club Scrap Retreat. The kit comes with all the pre-cut Folding Board and a handy video tutorial. The Folding Board sheets are in very limited supply. However, this fabulous kit is still available in the Retreat Pro Shop.





Thanks for taking the time to explore the many uses of Folding Board with me today.

A closer look at the special edition collections from the Club Scrap Retreat!

Club Scrap's 2017 Retreat season wrapped up this month and I am thrilled to share some of my creations made with the Special Edition Collections.

What A Ride Collection

Let me take you on a tour of some of the layouts and cards I created with one of the 2017 Retreat special edition collections. These are the layouts you can make with the kit when following the assembly instructions . . .

Check out the fun layout I created with the papers from the collection.

Rubber Stamps

Below is a set of simple yet fun greeting cards created with the What A Ride Stamps.

Sweet Tooth Collection



The prints from this collection were absolutely the perfect match for photos taken at Marilee's "Sweet Sixteen" birthday party! 


And here are Tricia's totally "sa-weet" layouts.


Masquerade Collection

I created this color blocked layout featuring a black and white photo from last year's Retreat.



Once again, here are the layouts you can make if you simply follow the instructions included in the kit.



I just love this quote. It's part of the Masquerade Collection and is something I need to remember!


I loved creating cards, layouts, and projects for this year's Retreat! Visit the Retreat "Pro Shop" to stock up on these collections while supplies last!


Basking in the afterglow until we meet again . . .
