Today I have a new card to share with you that I created.  I used an EK Success punch that is actually used to make rolled flowers, but I used it to layer some amazing detail at the bottom of my card.  I then layered the same colored paper at the top and added the ribbon you see from Websters pages that reminded me of a zipper.  I used a Graphic 45 keyhole then and added some pearl bling from Prima on the nail holes.  The paper was from The Rubber Buggy and it's called Prima Hello Pastel.  I finished the card off with a beautiful crochet lace ribbon bow. 



Rubber Buggy products used were:

Hello Pastel 6x6 paper from Prima
Graphic 45 ornate metal key holes

Thanks for looking ~Kelly

Happy Thursday friends!  It's Kelly here and I thought today I would share with you a little treat that I created for my little Halloween guests who might be arriving soon on my doorstep.  This is the "Stache it for later" Popcorn treat bag.  I found the adorable saying on pinterest, love that site, and then I created the template for the popcorn look-a-like container  you see here. 

Materials used:
Prima Hello pastel paper
Prima Hello pastel flowers

How to create this popcorn packet holder.
1.  Take 2 pieces of 6x6 paper, use ruler measure bottom at approx. 4 inches to fit popcorn packet.  Adhere bottom of each paper together to form a bottom. 
2.  Adhere ribbon to hold card together in middle then create bow.
3.  Oval punch for the center, flower adhered with glue.
4.  Draw popcorn pieces and adhere on the inside; one side only.  Color if necessary.
5.  Create saying on font - computer.  "Stache some popcorn for later"  I drew the mustache onto the cardstock.  Just practice it's not hard to draw.  Mat to black cardstock.  Use circle punch to clip the corners to make it look like it's a ticket from the ticket booth at the movie theater, and adhere together.
6.  Slip microwaveable popcorn packet down inside from the top, if the bottom is adhered together correctly it will hold it in as well as the ribbon on side. 
7.  Give as gift for trick or treaters!

Here is the finished product:

Hi crafty friends.  I've been thinking a lot about a friend of mine who has shared some struggles lately and I feel so out of touch with her.  For that I decided to send her a little notecard holder & collection.  Although I do not have the inside cards done I have decorated the outside with Hello Pastel from Prima and some flowers to make a beautiful cover for her notecards that I will be sending her.  I am also showcasing this as my Rubber Buggy dt project of the week for Thursday.  




It's super fun and easy to make here are the instructions and what you will need:

Materials:
12 x 12 paper
Embellishments
Ribbon

Instructions:
1.  Fold a 12 x 12 piece of paper in half one way from left to right.
2.  Then fold the paper up from the bottom only half way forming a
folder style fold.  Adhere the far left side and only the far right side so that 
you can still tuck your notecards down in the center on each side; just like
a school file folder.
3.  Attach ribbon to the back in the middle of the back; halfway down.
4.  Bring and attach the ribbon at the front again halfway down to create a
ribbon enclosure.
5.  Cover the front and embellish...that is all ...simple & your'e done with the front.

After you do all this then you have a folder that you can insert notecards into for a 
very nicely crafted handmade gift.

Thanks so much for watching ~Kelly

Hi everyone and it's Thursday with Kelly.   I have a fun idea for a project for you.  I created this Prima doll stamp tag for my daughter's friend on her birthday gift.  I decided I wanted to do something a little different .  Instead of using the flesh tone for the body I used the Prima Hello Pastel paper line from The Rubber Buggy.com to make her a cutesie pink color.  I also paper pieced the entire rest of the doll to make it match the entire tag.   I added few trims and flowers and I used a dress form stamp to enhance the girlie in the tag.    No copic coloring on this doll.  It is simply and completely paper pieced. I then glossy accented her body to make it pop a little more than the paper.

Well it's that time again here at the Rubber Buggy, it's Kelly and I have a design team project for you.  I was ill for quite some time and did not get a chance to color any images, and I ran out of copic paper for stamping so I thought what better time to dive into my scraps again and do another project on how I use my scraps and this time I've used some amazing scraps from the Paper line "Hello Pastel" by Prima; which you can purchase here at The Rubber Buggy.  

1.  I used a basic cardstock base.
2.  Then I added a glittery mat as shown in a darker but similar    
      color.   The paper line had quite a bit of the same hues, that 
      is why I chose that paper.
3.  I then used a scallop circle die to cut out the shapes necessary 
     to create this entire scallop circle just using a variety of scrap 
     papers.  You could use any die that has a framed image. 
4.  I then added a few paper flowers from the "Hello Pastel" 
     collection; only because I cant' do anything without using 
     flowers, hee hee.
5.  Then I added the "Growing Memories" title and did a little 
      white gel pen stitching and there you go, super easy and fun
      using your scraps project. 

I hope you like this project if you do, leave a comment below and tell me how you like to use up all your scraps!

Hello everyone it's Kelly.  You may have noticed that I have been doing quite a bit with the Hello Pastel collection, well there is so much you can do with this paper and embellishments that I am addicted and cannot stop.  I wanted to share with you a layout I made to enter over at the Prima BAP challenge but almost everything you see you can purchase over at The Rubber Buggy.  
This was a very simple layout and didn't require a lot of time so it's one that would be easy for anyone to do and not feel intimidated about as I do sometimes with the more detailed projects.




I used:
Hello Pastel 6x6 paper line
Hello Pastel flower embellishments

Hi everyone and welcome to my Thursday DT project for
 The Rubber Buggy  <<link here.

I made a card for a birthday party that my daughter is going to on Saturday.  The little girl is turning 3 so I decided to use the Hello Pastel from PRIMA and I received this from The Rubber Buggy website.  I love this paper and it's beautiful pastels.  

I cut circles with my creative memories punch and adhered them at the bottom.  

I then added some lace trim and then some floral trim, adhering the cute Bee sticker and Happy Birthday on the front.  

Then I decided to add some border with a fine tip marker in a very random fashion and I really do like how it turned out.  

Very simple but very cute and fun for a little girls 3rd birthday!  Hope you like it and check out the website for this great Prima paper!  Thanks for looking!  ♥  ~Kelly
