 "Beary Fine Day" - Page 1 on 12"x12" paper This is page one of a two page spread on 12"x12" paper. Featured on this page are a title block/journal box, a shaker box in the shape of a teddy bear, and a pink photo mate. This page has plenty of space for further adornment. The Title block measures 3"x4". A unique feature about this title block is that it is a booklet. Two pages of Creative Memories Ruled Paper are located within and can be used for Journaling. The four pages (front and back covers and two pages for journaling in) are bound together by three square mini-brads. A close up of the inside of the journal box can be found here. The teddy bear shaker box measures 2.75"x4". The internal box of the photo mat measures approximately 3.5"x5". |

Featured on this page are a pink photo mat and a brown photo mat with a teddy bear head peaking over the top and arms and legs wrapped around the box. Again, plenty of space remains for further adornment. The internal box of the pink photo mat measures approximately 4"x4". The inner box of the teddy bear photo mat measures 4.5"x6.5" (perfect for a 4"x6" photograph). |

 "Spring is a Buzzin"...e 1 on 12"x12" paper This is page one of a two page spread on 12"x12" paper. Featured on this page are three items; a title box, a photo mat shaped as a bee, and a yellow photo mat/journal box with a black border. The Title box measures 3.25"x2" (discounting a small bee in the corner...with the bee accent, it measures 3.5"x2.25".) and is black letters on a yellow paper framed by black paper. The bee photo mat measures 3"x6.75" and can will nicely hold a wallet sized piture with the corners trimmed (cut oval shap would probably look nicest). The mat features wings made with white vellum and attached via a silver round mini-brad. The brad allows the wings to move to "hide" the picture or show off the picture framed within. The internal box of the final photo mat measures 7"x3" and will nicely hold 2-3 small photos or a mix of photos and journaling. |

The bee photo mat measures 10.5"x7" and will fit a 4"x6" photo with the corners trimmed. Plenty of space remains for additional adornment. |

 "The Big One" - 12"x12" paper This is a single page spread on 12"x12" paper. This layout contains nine items. There are six balloons with letters affixed to spell out "The Big". After they were attached, strings were drawn in. The cake paper piecing measures 6"x12" and is sized to hold two photos. The first layer of the cake can hold is 5"x4" and the second layer is 6"x4". An eighth item on the page is a little girl's head with a pary hat on and is 1.5"x2.5". This item is just used as an accent piece. The final item is a gift and measures 3"x4.5" and can hold another photo or journaling. It is accented by a handmade "bow". |
 Our little Angel A single paper piecing. This item is an a little girl angel and measures 7.5"x6.5" and would be perfect as a title block. |
 Big Teddy Bear A single paper piecing, I used this item to accent the title page to a teddy bear spread I did. You can see how I used it in the next image. |
 Big Teddy Bear This page features the Big Teddy Bear paper piecing just mentioned. I used it in this title page for a "growth chart" of my daughter and a favorite teddy bear. |
 Spring Bugs Three individual paper piecing are featured on this page; a butterfly, a bee, and a ladybug. The butterfly measures 6.5"x7" and would make a very nice accent piece. The bee and the ladybug each measure approximately 2.75"x3.5". I can alter the bee to be similar to the bee paper piecing in the "Spring is a Buzzin" layout, containing movable vellum wings held on by a brad. I also plan to alter the ladybug similarly. |
 Ladybug Shaker Box This is an individual paper piecing, a ladybug shaped shaker box. I plan to make a similar shaker box shaped as a bee. I believe this item measured approximately 2.75"x3.5" but it was bought by a friend immediately after I finished making it so I'm not certain right now. It stands out from the page approximately 1/8" and contains small black beads and red glass micro-beads. |
I have been considering trying to sell some Paper Piecings (on Ebay and to friends and such) and have started putting some stuff together. I have a few full page layouts and a few more items that are a single item. I'm looking for constructive criticism and suggestions. I'm also looking for pricing thoughts. :D
