Other Paper Crafting ProjectsThis is a featured page

at Scrapbooking techniques and scrapbook products lend them themselves well to other paper crafting projects as well as scrapbooking in the traditional sense.

Scrapbookers also put their skills to use making items such as greeting cards, decorated boxes, gift tags, invitations, posters, wall hangings, holiday decorations and ornaments, calendars and even jewelery.

3-D Advent CalendarThis 3-D Advent Calendar is made from a kit from Karen Foster Design. The little boxes with thumbnail holes for easy opening reverse so the project can do double duty as a Countdown Calendar. It could be used for birthdays, Easter, graduation, last day of school. etc.

Of course, scrapbookers use their scrapbooking supplies and tools to make various designs of countdown or advent calendars.

Hockey Puck Box made from scrapbook supplies These hockey puck boxes are made with craft supplies. You start with a small round box available at most craft stores, then decorate to resemble a hockey puck. Little boys love them. They make great stocking stuffers, and they're simple enough to make that older children can make their own as a craft project.

Check out this Video Tutorial of the Hockey Puck Boxes
Gift Card HoldersThese gift card holders are a nice way to personalize gift cards. They're so easy to make using only a regular envelope cut and folded, scrapbook paper and whatever embellishments you wantfor trim. Two of these are decorated for Valentine's Day.

You could make this house with any theme you wanted. I plan on doing an Easter one next. I'm not quite sure what it will be. It might be a Bunny Hutch or perhaps an Easter Egg House.

Wish somebody would help me with the pizza eating though. I'll be heading down to Jenny Craig by the time this is over. LOL
