Scrappin' My Stress Away: Spring Blooms Box

My Scrapbook Goals for 2013

Last year, my goal was to get published. I am happy to say that I was published in Scrapbook News and Review. I did not count on breaking my wrist in May, so I did not submit any other work.....

My crafty goals for 2013 are:

1. Find the rest of my mojo!!! It broke with my wrist last May and I have gotten some back. I need to seek out challenges, blog hops and classes to rejuvenate!! ****I do want to add that my mojo is coming back (yay) and I have great moments of inspiration, and others where I am completely stumped!!! I get a lot of comments on this goal! Last year I posted 3-5 times a week and this year I am 1-3 times a week....getting there!!

2. Finish Tyler's High School Album before his Graduation Party!!!

3. Reinvent my scrapbook style - I am feeling a little stale!

4. Seek out DT opportunities that match my talents and goals.

5. Conquer my fear of creating videos and learn how to edit!!

Spring Blooms Box

Happy Almost Spring!! This week at SweetSassyDiva, the theme is Spring Blooms. I just cleaned out my flower beds today and my bulbs are coming up!!! I absolutely love spring flowers!

My Gypsy girl has been cutting wonky so I turned to my Imagine for this project. I started with this pretty box from Imagine More Cards. I cut it out at 8.5 inches.

I scored and folded the box and adhered it together.

I cut out these flowers from Art Philosophy at 5 inches. I had a different spring bloom project in mind originally so I cut out flowers and leaves that I ended up not using.

I rolled up the flowers with my quilling tool and glued them together with Scotch liquid glue. I ended up trimming a little bit from the red and yellow flowers and a lot from the purple flower to fit on the front of my box.

I am going to stick a gift card inside and give this as a gift. I really need to use my Imagine more often!!! Thanks for having me over today Bobbi Jo!!
