 Our featured project this month is a romantic vintage hanging postcard that we have for sale in the shop. Perfect for a sweet Valentine. Using soft gel medium, we transferred a vintage image on to an old playing card. We then adhered the playing card with PPA glue onto a Papaya postcard that we sell in our shop (come as a set in a tin). Next we added embellishments, stamps, and pieces of torn tissue paper. Finally we punched holes and set eyelets with the Big Bite Crop A Dile, and strung wire or ribbon through the top. 

(Sorry this is a little late and I still can't seem to get the picture to post, which is why its late, so anyway if you would like to see a photo of the project please check it out here on our pinterest page.) 

Thanks so much and hope you had a great Valentine's Day!

CB Paperie's February Newsletter

Thought I'd share our February newsletter that we sent out last week...

Welcome to Cherry Blossom Paperie’s Newsletter! We hope you enjoyed visiting our store. It is our goal to inspire encouragement and creativity in others. Our newsletter will be about DIY projects, our favorite blogs, information from our artists and crafters, and anything we find inspiring! We will try to keep it short and sweet, because if you are like me, you don’t have as much time to read and browse as you would like.

A little business to take care of first: If you are a scrapbooker or paper crafter, please take some of that precious time to complete our short survey. To complete the survey, just click here. There are so many wonderful things you can do with paper, stamps, and embellishments and we really want to carry the products that you need the most.

Speaking of wonderful things you can do with paper and embellishments, take a look at our featured blog for this month: Lillybean Paperie. We have chosen her “Bake, Pray, Create” post because it’s February and this is one of our favorite blogs. I was so excited to see that the paper and many of the embellishments she used to create her tags are from Making Memories “Je t’Adore” Collection that we are currently carrying in our store. Hope you enjoy! Click here.

                                 

We hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day full of encouragement and love!

Please feel free to share our ideas and forward our newsletters to others who might be interested!
