Paper Temptress at the HOP!

It is Day Three of the TJ Blog Hop, and we are celebrating today with Paper Temptress! What could be better than having a partner who is all about paper when you are creating 3D  Paper Crafts?  And to make it even better, Paper Temptress is offering a $25.00 gift certificate for today to one lucky winner, and another $25.00 gift certificate for the gift basket drawn on Monday.

Today, I made the Tri-Fold Out Card from the 3D and Fun Folds Paper Crafts CD using luxurious papers from Paper Temptress. The card at the top is closed, and the two pictures below show the card with each of the flaps open:



In person, this card is shimmery, textural, and just plain pretty as a picture. The base of the card uses Alpine Aster Glimmer, and I used Cappuccino Mica/Metallic, Green ruche and Khaki Ruche to compliment it with the layers. You can see hints of the texture and glimmer on the pictures above! 

Want ot win the $25.00 gift certificate from the Paper Temptress? Just leave me a message on today's post -- you will be entered to win today, then you will also have an entry for the grand prize basket, too. 

Make sure that you visit the rest of the hop, too:










You can also play along with us! Feel free to post your artwork using the Double Twisted Easel Technique, or any of the techniques on the 3D and Fun Folds CD. Then add your work to the blog hop below!

Here is what I created for the hop today:
I used the Freestanding Pop-up Tutorial from the 3D and Fancy Folds CD to create this cute card. The best thing about this? It folds FLAT for mailing!  and it was sooo easy to make -- I had great directions!
I used Stampavie stamps from Classy Cards 'n Such for both the main image and the saying. They are actually one stamp -- I deconstructed it to use the different parts where I wanted them on my card.

If I was your first stop, I urge you to go to the TJ Design Team blog to go through the whole hop -- you will really enjoy the projects and inspiration! It also gives you a chance to see some of the projects from the 3D CD as made by different designers. 



Here is the whole list of hoppers for today:


 Okay, so start with the Design Teams blog and work your way back. Remember to leave comments for the designers, and especially here -- and good luck!



3D Gift Card Box - It is so cool!


I know I am not supposed to have favorites (it is like picking your favorite child), but in this case, I do. This 3D Gift Card Box is my favorite (okay, ONE of my favorites) from the newest TJ CD: 3D and Fun Folds.  The Cd has 70 tutorials on it, all in pdf format, step-by-step with pictures for each step -- and multiple finished-piece examples.  And...it is only $17.95 (US/Canada - $19.95 for Overseas). Go to the link above to see all of the tutorials on the CD.

The cool thing about this particular project is that it is a box - until the lid is removed. Then it is this really cool 3-D gift card holder. Even my 16 year-old son is impressed with this one!
And the directions for this are remarkably easy - even the most folding-impaired can follow the directions. Try the CD -- you will not be disappointed!
