Wood Crate Creations - September Bonus Project - Craft Project Central

Hello! Today I'm showing the last of the projects at Craft Project Central for the month of September.

The Wood Crate Creations Bonus project tutorial is designed by Christy Fulk.

Rustic is in, and these projects fit into the rustic-theme perfectly! This tutorial teaches how to make three different projects with the Wood Words Stamp Set and Wood Crate Framelits Dies. The projects are a milk carton crate, a gift card crate card, and a trunk gift box. The projects also feature the wonderful Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack. This would also make a wonderful product-based class.

Bonus projects can be obtained by subscribing to any of the three, six or 12 month subscription packages, that include the month for which they’d like the bonus.  

To get the instructions to Christy's bonus project plus others for the month of September, be sure to sign up for the 3, 6, or 12 month subscription package at Craft Project Central.

Desktop Card Organizer & Notepad Holder - Craft Project Central

Hello! It's time for another fun project at Craft Project Central.

The Desktop Card Organizer & Notepad Holder tutorial is designed by Stephanie Purvis.

As crafters we all probably make a ton of cards. But when it comes to sending out those cards, sometimes we don’t get them out as often as we would like. We have to find the card, an envelope, stamps, address label, and even a pen. Sometimes that simple task takes a lot of effort and causes us to miss sending out a card! Here is a desktop organizer that can hold several types of cards, the envelopes to match them, and a drawer underneath that can contain a pen, stamps and even a few return address labels. This makes it so much more convenient to get those cards out! Everything you need is all in one place – right on top of your desk. This would also make a wonderful gift! Also in this project tutorial is a notepad holder to keep track of birthdays, events, or other notes!

Is your craft room getting full of too many stamp and die sets? Do you find you don’t get enough use out of your products? Here is a card set using the same stamp and die sets, paired with different techniques. The cards can be easily reproduced to make a number of sets. The coordinating box is also very easy to make and can be reused as a small gift bag.

Coffee Break Gift Ensemble - Craft Project Central

Happy First of September! Where has the time gone?? This year is flying by! But I'll be sharing some fun posts during the month of September. I've been invited back as a guest designer for Craft Project Central so you'll get to see all of the fun tutorials that will be posted this month.

First up is a Coffee Break Gift Ensemble tutorial by Liz Miller.

Some people firmly believe that coffee is life and whether that's you or not, you certainly know someone who feels that way.  With this tutorial, create a gift that evokes a feeling that is about catching up with good friends or just starting your day off right featuring the Coffee Café Stamp Set.  This would make a quick and easy class project or hostess gift!  Make one to gift to a friend or keep it just for yourself.  So, go and grab a cup of coffee (or water if that's your thing), and start creating.
