Love is such a powerful subject matter because it comes in so many different shapes and sizes. It's about timing, fate, failure, redemption. -- Jim SturgessTo honor those lost last year in the Pulse nightclub massacre, I decided to create a "love is love" bookmark using the Linked Hearts Bookmark by U‐Paint® Metal Crafts. I used some amazing acrylic paints from DecoArt and beautiful glitter from Tonic Studios. This bookmark celebrates love in all of its forms and reminds me that we are all in this together!

Disclosure: As a member of the JOY design team, I received the embroidered letters for free in exchange for my design ideas. The other products used in this project were purchased by me.

"Let Freedom Ring" Mini-Album
Disclosure: As a member of the Deflecto Crafts design team, I received the Deflecto products for free in exchange for my design ideas.
The July 4th holiday may be over, but now you have to get all of the photos that you took at the cookouts, parades, and fireworks displays scrapped! Why not create a mini-album using Deflecto flexible pouches and pear clips?
Materials:
- White and blue cardstock
- patterned paper in patriotic colors
- July 4th-themed stickers (I used American Crafts stickers)
- Buttons Galore Patriotic Mix buttons
- tape runner
- adhesive dots
- adhesive foam squares
- scissors
- paper trimmer
- ribbon
- Deflecto large flexible pouches
- Deflecto pear clip
How to:
- Using a paper trimmer, cut 5 pieces of white cardstock to 5" x 7".
- Using patterned paper and blue cardstock, create layouts on both the front and back of each piece of white cardstock.
- Embellish each page with stickers and buttons. Use foam squares to "pop up' some of the stickers to give your page dimension. Attach buttons using adhesive dots.
- Once all pages have been completed, place each page into the pouches.
- Use a pear clip as a ring to hold the pouches together in an album.
- Cut 6" lengths of ribbon. Tie around the pear clip.
Now you have a simple mini-album that you can easily carry to show off those favorite holiday moments!

Patriotic Metal Star Wreath
Disclosure: As a member of the U‐Paint® Metal Crafts Creative Team, I received products for free in exchange for my designs.
This mini wreath might be small but it packs a large patriotic punch!
I used a star from U‐Paint® Metal Crafts and painted it using Americana® Multi-Surface Satin Acrylic Paint™ by DecoArt® to give it a distressed, rustic look.
