I'm so happy that I found this beautiful Cuttlebug Challenge Blog . The challenge is to create something other than a card or to alter an item using your embossing folders.
I altered this small plastic container. I embossed the pink carstock and the bottom part of the paper using the Frills embossing borders. I doodled the scallop edge of the pink cardstock and I added some ribbon, small tag and charm.
Here are some mini address book, mini post it and clips that I put inside this small plastic container. I used the Textile embossing folder in the blue cardstock cover of the mini address book and the clips holder. And the Floral Fantacy for the pink cover of the mini post it. My oldest daughter will it to her friend. Hope she will love it!
Thank you for looking!
Products I used:
Basic Grey- paper
Georgia Pacific- white cardstock
Colorbok- pink and blue cardstocks
Prima- flowers
Making Memories- brads and crystal brads
Darice- acrylic jewels
Glue Dots- clear adhesive
Offray-ribbons
K & Company- adhesive
Others-charms, tag, clips

My New Software PSE 6 & layouts
Here's Charlene layout, she used different background and she used some light effect. She's so good in PSE and I'm so thankful that she always there to help me :)
It's been almost a month now when my dear hubby bought me this amazing software PSE 6. Only today that I really used it for the very first time. This is so much fun I made my own word art for my layout. My oldest daughter showed me how to make word art *thank you Charlene*. Yes she's way better than me, I'm still learning how to use this cool software. I love it, thank you my dear hubby!Posted by Rleen at 8:25 PM 1 comments

Charlene's Birthday
Just a simple and quick page for Charlene's birthday. Some photos of her friends, some of her presents and her birthday cake. One of her friend gave her a bear, this is really cute with the outfit too. He bought it from Build A Bear Workshop in Ala Moana Shopping Center the biggest mall in Hawaii. The blue heart with her name was her first tried to make some embelishment. I just added the happy birthday on top. I'm very proud of her, she amazed me with all her creations.
