NEW RELEASE BLOG HOP!

Want to win one of our new release templates? Then join the AR Design Team's Blog Hop! Just visit each designer's blog listed below, leave a comment, and you'll automatically be entered to win one of our new templates! Easy Peasy!

I'm so excited to share with you the Ribbon Keeper and Menu Keeper and Stand, along with a new digital image/cutter file, Chelsea Dancer, which was inspired by my sweet daughter. First is my cutter file, which I made especially for my daughter's dance showcase announcement.



CHELSEA DANCER:
For this announcement, I took out my sewing machine to sew the velum and patterned paper to the Kraft card stock to make a pocket. After distressing the edges, I added a simple bow and button. Using my cutting machine, I cut several silhouettes of the Chelsea Dancer image and attached it to the front of pocket. This cutting file is also available as a digital stamp. (All supplies from SU!).

MENU KEEPER and STAND:
Here's a great organizer for recipes (also perfect for organizing cards!). The Menu Keeper and Stand comes with the organizer box, the dividers and stand for displaying recipes, photos or cards! The organizer on the right is for organizing cards, using the dividers to separate the different categories.


I also made one as a Menu Keeper with the Stand, which is PERFECT to use with the "Compliments to the Chef" and "From the Kitchen Of" SU! stamp sets! (All supplies from SU!)


RIBBON KEEPER:
This is one of my favorite projects! It's so handy and looks really pretty that you wouldn't want to hide your embellishment containers or ribbon spools!




Two sizes are included in this template: one for small and regular ribbon spools (which also holds eight SU! containers); and the other size holds the larger spools.



If you're new to Blog Hops, here's all you have to do:
• Visit each designer listed below.
• Admire their projects and leave a comment.
• Visit each blog on Friday, April 29, to see if you've been chosen as a winner to receive one of our new templates!
• You have from April 27 at 6:00 am (PST) until April 28 at 6:00 am (PST) to play along with several chances to win because each designer will be choosing a winner!

NOW, LET'S GET HOPPIN'!

Nicely done. There are some who have a flare for design and you've got it. Love all the projects. I'm most excited about the recipebox and stand because it will make a great gift for my neighbor...the healthiest cook on the block.

Moments by Marla said...

These templates are fabulous and your projects are awesome. The menu keeper would make a wonderful hostess gift and the ribbon keeper is something all of us crafters need for our abundance of ribbon. It wouldn't hold my stash of ribbon (yes, my name is Marla, and I am a ribbon-aholic) but it would be great for having the ribbons for the project you are currently working on.

Sharla said...

Gorgeous! I love the recipe stand and organizer, very pretty!
