Jot this Down

Back to School is the theme right now.  

It IS that time of year, right?

I like that the 3GirlJAM challenge gave us the option of 

Back to School OR Something with a Writing Instrument.

A craft file folder is the base for this fun card.  I bound it using eyelets and Holly Berry crinkle ribbon and I've included more 3GirlJAM with the natural Jute Ribbon under my polka dot brad. 

The inside is lined with more school theme paper and a blank side for your note.

Happy Thursday, Peeps!  Karen N here from Craftily Yours sharing a card that......wellllll......mostly fits into the 3 Girl JAM Challenge for Back-to-School or something with a writing instrument.  Hey, I used back-to-school paper!  LOL

I used paper from my stash (that I've had for years and years), some 3 Girl JAM green crinkle ribbon from the Spooky Bundle and some 3 Girl JAM lace from the Distressed Lace bundle.  The stamp set is from There She Goes.  You can get some of this beautiful ribbon for a HECK of a deal (10% off!! whoop, whoop!) using discount code KN10!  Stop by 3 Girl JAM ToDaY to check out the yummy goodness!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Just Because

Hi Friends! Abby here with ScrappinAbby and today I'm sharing a really quick & simple card that you can dress up using some of the FAB Crinkle Ribbon from 3GJ!

I also have a short video that shows you the card up close along with the crinkle ribbons that I used...

 Caribbean Splash Bundle

 Harvest Bundle

Using the two different bundles from 3GJ really dressed up this simple card that was quick to make. I love mixing up the bundles and it's like Julie & DCWV teamed up to make the Coral Couture Stack and the two bundles I used...they're complement each other perfectly! Love that!!

Be sure to stop by the 3GJ STORE and get some crinkle ribbon for  yourself. Use Discount Code:AH10 to get 10% off of your total order. 

Thanks for stopping by the 3GJ blog today and for checking out another ScrappinAbby project. 

Happy Crafting!!

Just a Note

Nicole here today with a back to school card to share with you.  I used a file from the silhouette store for my card and then embellished it with some of the fun 3 Girl JAM yellow tie dyed ribbon (love this stuff!!).  I used my 3 Girl JAM bow maker to make a double bow and then glued a button from my stash on top.  My card fits in perfectly with this month's challenge - "back to school or something with a writing instrument" - so you can be sure I will be linking my card to the 3 Girl JAM challenge blog.

Thanks for stopping by today!!  Don't forget to use code NE10 to save 10% off your entire purchase from the 3 Girl JAM store.  For more information on my card feel free to visit my BLOG.

Thinking of you by Marji

  This was a free image on a group I'm in on Face Book offered by Karleigh Sue

I colored her with my pencils and blended using gamsol.

I used an embossing folder I got from Pinque Peacock and the die cuts are from My Favorite Things.

I used the ribbon as a border piece instead of just a bow.  Trying to be different...

It's Canning Season!

Hello, crafty friends.  Julie O here today from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers.   It's canning season here in my neck of the woods.  I don't can, but I sure love it when my friends do, and bring me some canned goods.  It seems you can can just about anything -- pickles, beets, watermelon, peaches, green beans, even venison.  I have a fondness for canning jars, and enjoyed making these canning jar shaped cards. Combine them with some 3 Girl JAM ribbon, and these could win blue ribbons at the fair!
The canning jar cutting file is from My Scrap Chick. I added Gold Crown 3 Girl JAM crinkle ribbon from the Royal Bundle to the lid. 
Here's 2 different jar cards I have to share:

The papers for these cards are a retired pack from Close To My Heart.  I thought they worked well for these canning jars.

Enjoy the fruits of the season, and remember, you ARE one in a melon!

Just a Note Back to School

Do you find yourself wondering "where did summer go?"
I sure have now that the kids in our area are heading back to school. 

My children always loved sharing gifts with their teachers and 

who doesn't need more post it holders?! 

(insert a groan here if you have a desk full already)

I love the vintage style paper with the Tuxedo crinkle ribbon.

I added a few staples to hold that ribbon snugly in place.

Once that post it pad is used up, just pop in another.

This ribbon looks great when tied up time and again.

Be sure to join our Back to School challenge.

and if you're up for shopping...

use the code DB10 for your 10% off on 3GirlJAM merch.

Have a wonderful Friday!

Flower Ribbon HI!

Karen N here from Craftily Yours, and ToDaY, I'm sharing a sweet card that fits right into this month's 3 Girl JAM Challenge to do something for back to school or to use a writing instrument w/ ribbon.  I chose writing instrument!

I used papers from my scrap-pile, some yummy 3 Girl JAM flower ribbon and a stamp-set from Paper Smooches {Just a Note}.  I finished it off with a doily and some UmWow Studio confetti circle chip covered with Liquid Pearls.

Did you know that you can purchase 3 Girl JAM goodies for a cool 10% off using code KN10?!  Or win some if you join our challenge!

Craftily yours,

Delight In The Little Things

Hi Friends! Abby here with ScrappinAbby and I today I'll be sharing an altered wooden mini album that I dressed up with some laces and crinkle ribbon from3 Girl JAM .

For this project I used the following 3GJ goodies...

Light & Bright Lace

Celebrations Bundle

Pink & White Bundle

I used some of the lace for the binding and inside the mini along with the two other crinkle ribbon bundles. This was a pretty quick and easy mini to put together and using the 3GJ lace and crinkle ribbons really add that shabby touch I was going for. 

Be sure so stop by the 3 Girl JAM Store and pick up some of the yummy lace and crinkle ribbons AND don't forget to use Discount Code:AH10 to get 10% off of your total order. 

Thanks for stopping by the 3GJ blog today and for checking out another ScrappinAbby project. 

Happy Crafting!!
