QCC EPISODE 4...AND REMEMBER NOTE PAD

Hello everyone...today I want to first mention that I have uploaded another QCC (QUICK CAFE CREATION) on my youtube channel..and it was a super quick project...here is the project:
and the video is at the bottom of this post...see the video for all the details...but I did use these two sets from the Cafe site on the CUPCAKE CARD...
hey cupcake frames
huge cupcake templateUp next is another quick project I made using the new LINE PAPER NOTE PAD SET...this was a really super fun project to make...that I will be keeping for myself..I used some fun old CRATE paper.....I decided to make a band to go around the project that can slip on and off as needed....I did my line paper in red...(the set comes with 5 different colors)..I made some kraft envelopes to match..2 small ones and 2 big ones ...fit nicely on the left hand side of the note pad folder...to keep the papers altogether on the right hand side...I first printed 10 pages...(they come 2 on a page)...then I cut out the 20 pages and stacked them on top of one another adding glue just at the top...after they were glued together..I just wrapped some matching card stock on the top and then added in the folder...EASY PEASY...and for $2.50 for the whole set, they would make awesome Christmas gifts.....on the cover, I did add a tag from the JOT IT DOWN SET...if you haven't see that set, you need to check it out...

LIFE SAVER BOX PROJECTS.......................

Hello everyone...gesssssssssssss seems like forever since I last posted a project...well I have two for ya....I am starting a new thing on youtube called QUICK CAFE CREATIONS...it will be projects that will be quick and fun to make using products from The Cutting Cafe...I will be using background music for these types of videos...I am still going to make other videos using my voice, but the QUICK CAFE CREATIONS will be just with background music...I will be doing one a week...haven't really decided if it will be on a certain day or not...anyHOO....here is the first QCC..SEE VIDEO BELOW...I used the LIFE SAVER BOX set for this project.....this Life Saver box can be used for so many different party favors...as you can see in this quick project (and yes it was quick)...
I only used the top lid of the Life Saver box....wrapped the life savers with some background papers from the cutting cafe, (stars background) (stripes background) (tiny solid dots)........
then added a tag from the 4th OF JULY SET 1...kind of looks like little FIRE CRACKERS...of course I can't take full credit for this project though...I first saw it about a year ago over at Cindy G's blog..I miss that girl..she is so darn talented..but is doing fine...spoke with her not to long ago...Up next is the full version of the LIFE SAVER BOX...see I told ya it could be used for lots of stuff...
