Witchy Memorabilia, New Spooky Stuff, Metal Filigree on Sale!
Filed under Alice Accordion Book Kit, Alice in Wonderland, Coins Coasters & Holders Kit, Filigree, Susan Killam, Susan Yee
Wow! Lots of new items, a 40% off sale (!) and 3 projects by 2 Design Team Members (both named Susan)! I’m diving in quickly!
Witchy Memorabilia Box by Design Team Member Susan Killam
There are SOOO many cool things in this box (and the box is decorated as well)! Susan used tons of the goodies announced with the May Kit for her treasures (like the 3 Inch Dimensional Coin Folder shown at far right). I love the addition of metal clasps (and feet, and a handle) to the chipboard pockets.
Plus she includes some tips on using black gesso to hide the tan chipboard-colored perforations on the folders.
Here’s a link to all the supplies Susan used. Be sure to visit her blog post for lots more info & photos! AND see below in the Giveaway section for a chance to win lots of the supplies!

TWO Alice Projects by Design Team Member Susan Yee
Wow (again)! Susan has made 2 very different Alice in Wonderland projects, both using a Blank Altoids Tin. The accordion-folded book at right, using panels from the Altoids Tin Accordion Book (but cut apart and re-connected with ribbons) is called Mend My Broken Heart. So inventive! And check Susan’s blog post for lots of in-process photos showing how she built up layers. Plus here is the supply list.
And below… BIG WOW! Those 2 photos are just showing part of a larger (actually taller) piece called the “Where’s Alice?” Treasure Box. I love all the layers and texture, and the fun parts like the animals holding a sign “Where’s Alice?! It’s time for CHESS!”
Here’s a link to all the supplies Susan used for this second project. Be sure to visit Susan’s second blog post for more info on how she made this project (including hollowing out part of a paper mache dress form to nest the tin into)!

Witchy Memorabilia Giveaway!
I know… so much eye candy today you can barely remember Susan (Killam’s) witchy project above! But seeing we’re almost 10 days into May (eek!) I think it’s time to give away some items from the May Kit — starting with one of the kits! That will give you the scrapbook paper and one each of the 2 shapes of 2-1/2″ heavy chipboard pieces Susan decorated.
In addition, I’ve picked ELEVEN more items from Susan’s supply list for today’s Giveaway:
– the 2 metal clasps (and feet, and a handle) that I mentioned above — so that’s 4 items
– ALL SEVEN Collage Sheets Susan used (with lots of witchy images, of course!)
