Another Monday, Another Winner!

Happy Monday, friends!!!

I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend!! I feel like I have been celebrating my birthday for 4 days! I think it is finally over so I want to say a big THANK YOU for all of your sweet wishes!! I loved reading all of your "when I was 29 or where I want to be at 29" comments. Many of them made me teary eyed!! I love how the simple craft of paper crafting can connect people and can give us SO MANY friends!!

I wish I could give these stacks to ALL of you!! I would probably get fired though so we don't want that!!! Our winner this week is:

Well, the 29th of May will be my golden birthday in a couple of years. I am 24 now, so I have a few years to go...but I am hoping to have my own scrapbooking store by then. This has been my dream for so long!

I wanted to share one of the MANY projects that I am creating for an upcoming TV segment in Utah about creative ways to use scrapbook paper in your holiday gift wrapping. I have had so much coming up with ideas for this!!! I love this first idea....

I cut tons of strips of paper into 1/2 inch x 12 inch strips. I used heavy adhesive to connect the ends to make a circle.

Then I put a dot of adhesive on the inside of the paper and pressed down in the center to make a figure 8.

I did this to about 16 strips, layering them as I adhered them together. Punched out a circle and added a button to the center and that was it!

I love wrapping gifts in cheap kraft wrapping paper and decorating the box. So unique and fun!!! 

Can't wait to show you more fun stuff I am working on!!! Have a great day and I will be back soon!
