Sara's Blog

My friend LeNae came up with a really neat little technique. We’re calling it “brad threading” for lack of a better term—take a look at the photo above and you’ll see what I mean. Then look at LeNae’s cute card to see how you can use this technique. LeNae threaded the Super Sized Yellow Flower Brads with a pink daisy brad. I think it’s super cute. (To see complete instructions for this card, visit Scrapbooking 101 and click on the April 2008 Layout of the Month.)

Also, you’ve got to check out this blog from paper crafter Marie-Hélène. We’ve been emailing last week and she told me about her blog, http://mariehelenescrap.canalblog.com/. Oh my gosh! I love how she uses our templates—keep scrolling on her main page and you’ll see our Scandinavian Hearts template, plus the Nested Shapes and Thing-a-ma-Jigs. The blog is in French and Spanish (this is helping me practice my Spanish!) but you don’t need to be fluent in either one to get inspired! (Plus isn’t she just the cutest?)

Gracias and merci to LeNae and Marie-Hélène for inspiration this week!
