This was a 7 Gypsies Tray I did for Archivers a year ago. Each store had to do a tray using current product and a 7 Gypsies tray of our choosing. We submitted it to corporate for consideration for marketing purposes and it was chosen! WooHoo! It was used in email, print and web and is currently still on their website in the idea gallery. The pictures are of my son Carter, daughter Taylor and my other daughter Alex taken by my friend Alyssia whom I worked with at Archivers. Check out her website here if you live anywhere in the Salt Lake/Provo area:
Above are two projects I did for Alex's Alpha Phi Red Dress Gala in 2011. I was really into doing magnet boards at the time which I picked up pretty cheap at Roberts Crafts. I think at one time I had about 10 in my inventory! I found I was making them for every occasion that needed a gift or donation of some sort. They are super easy to pull together. Probably the hardest part is deciding on what paper line to use and making sure there are enough embellishments to go with it. For this particular project I used a Fancy Pants line that I found once again at Roberts Crafts. I loved the blues and browns together.
And yes, another magnet board and tray! These were done for my sister-n-law Lisa who came to visit us while we were living in Saratoga Springs, UT. She always brings us gifts so I thought what a great surprise to give her something when she arrives. Although I don't remember the paper lines I do know that I used a mixture of lines and embellishments. My idea was to use paper which would coordinate with her first floor of her house being as though she has a open floor plan but from what I was told, she took them to her office and put them on display with all the other pictures of the nieces and nephews.
I still have I think 2 boards in my scrapbook room to use. Before Roberts Crafts went "officially" out of business I picked up a few remaining boards which I was able to locate in a few locations. Soon I will have to look for a new source but until then I guess I will stick to doing trays and canvases.
