I Love You Wall Plaque

Welcome back friends! Let's jump right on in with today's project. Today I have a project made using our flower template.

Ready to see how it was made?

 I started by layering patterned paper on a 6 inch plaque. Then, using the flower template, I cut out individual flower petals from two different designs of patterned paper. Then I simply layered the flower petals around the outer edge of the plaque.

Next, I added a bit of ribbon.  Don't worry that the circle of ribbon is not perfectly round.  It will be covered with all sorts of embellishments later.

Next, I curled the edges of all the flower petals.  This as a quick process. I just took a dowel rod and curled the edges of the paper around it for a few seconds.

Lastly, I added on lots of flowers, lots of bling, mini playing cards, a butterfly, and a heart.

A beautiful project just ready for giving as a gift or to keep and brighten your own home.

Design Team Members

Pia Astrand

Hello! My name is Pia Åstrand and I come from Halmstad, Sweden. I've been married for 16 years this fall and we have two boys the are 9 and 12. I´m very honoured to be one of the first DT for JnW crafts. I've been crafting all my life and found scrapbooking in 2007 when a local scrapbooking store opened where I live. Lately I have been exploring all kinds of mixed media and like to try out new techniques and mediums. I also love to draw and doodle on my projects. Here is my blog Pias Doodling.

Bev Code

I was new to online scrapping since Apr 2009. There are so many sites. My name is Bev Code and I have been scrapping about 5 years. I am a wife, mother and gramma that loves being retired and now have time to scrap to my heart's content. I love scrapbooking along with fun things it entails with online friends, forums and FB. The learning process has been interesting and creative also. Other crafts I love also are needlepoint, sewing, knitting, crochet and taking lots of photos. Family and friends are the subjects of my scrapping along with nature, ancestry and vacation sites. I live in Conestogo, Ontario and spend some time in Florida where I take my scrapping with me for the extended time. I can be found at my blog Bee Cee Creativity.

Guest Design Team Members

Dana Tater

Hi! My name is Dana Tatar and I'm thrilled to be a guest designer for JnW Crafts! I am a stay-at-home mom currently living in Virginia with my husband and two young daughters. I started scrapbooking to preserve memories after the birth of my first daughter and now I enjoy the creative outlet. I love to mix products from different collections on my projects and I frequently find inspiration in music, poetry and pop culture. I'm an active blogger and I like to share my tips and ideas. I create a little of everything, including layouts, cards, tags, artist trading cards, arches and small gift and home decor items. I'd love to have you stop by my blog They Call Me Tatar Salad.

Vicki Robertson

I love art in all forms and have been crafting since I could hold a pair of scissors. My style is eclectic and changes on a daily basis. Scrapbooking was the start of it all, but cards and mixed media projects monopolize a major part of what I create also. I'm married to my best friend and we have two beautiful, married daughters, two handsome son-in-laws and three fabulous grandkids! I am excited to be a part of the JnW Crafts launch! I can be found at my blog He"artful" Validation of Vicki.

Blast Off!

It's time to share another creation from one of our Guest Design Team members.  This adorable card was created by Candy Spiegel using our rocket ship template. And what a creative use of the template. Candy used the template as an embellishment on the card itself.

The template itself was painted with Distress Ink and water. The inside of the template was colored with a Sharpie. We just love seeing the wood grain through the paint!

This would make a perfect card for a child's birthday.

Coffee Mug Template and Embellishment

Today we are keeping with the kitchen theme with our coffee mug template and embellishment. This adorable combo would be perfect to use to create something for that someone in your life who is a coffee addict.

A project idea that I had was making an apron and using the template to make an applique iron-on to put on the apron for the coffee addict in my life. So do you have an idea for this cute template and embellishment combo too?   Continue following us and checking out our blog as we will be posting more of our templates and embellishments over the new few weeks.

Glass Jar Template and Embellishment

Today we are showing off our glass jar template and embellishment. I think this combo is absolutely cute. When I first saw this combo the first thing it reminded me of was the old days of canning jellies and preserves.

What do you think, does it remind you of your childhood seeing grandparents using them or even your own parents? This template and embellishment combo could be used to create something cute for that person in your life that loves to cook or create something cute for your kitchen. You can find this template, along with many others, in our store.
