Will you forgive me, please, and accept these fine, fun projects that I've rounded up for you this week as penance?
From the top left:
- Maps have a special place in this travel-loving girl's heart, so you just know this DIY map stationery set from Design*Sponge just had to find it's way onto my blog!
- How About Orange has a great tutorial (available as a downloadable PDF, no less!) on how to turn an old book into a sewing box. I can see sooooooo many possibilities for scrappy projects in this one!
- Craft Gossip linked to another great travel-oriented post, this time showing how to make a mini album using a passport cover. Sounds like a perfect scrapbook on the go idea to me!
- Learn to make these lovely crepe paper flowers at Giver's Log.
- Could these sweet finger puppets possibly be any cuter?!?!? Heidi Van Laar shows you how to make your own!
- Maps, maps, maps- more map goodness!! Kelly Purkey shows how to make a map-based scrapbook layout. So fun!
- If you've been reading for any length of time, you know I have a soft spot for great party and birthday ideas, and these adorable animal candle holders (soooo easy to DIY) from The Sweetest Occasion certainly fit that category!
- Can you believe that these cherry blossom stems (you know I can't resist cherry blossoms) are made from clay and a few other craft supplies? Amy Atlas shows you how!
- I love Monika Wright's mini albums, and she's got a fantastic summer themed one over at Write.Click.Scrapbook.
