Skylark Blog Hop!

Hi everyone!  Welcome to the CTMH Rose Blossom Team's Blog Hop featuring Skylark papers!  If you are traveling along the hop, you should have come from Marg's fabulous blog!

Our team has used the gorgeous Skylark papers to create our projects for you. This time of year, as the school year will be soon coming to a close, I am always trying to find little gifties for the many people who help out in my classroom.  With that in mind, I've created some lip balm holders using Skylark papers and Skylark PML cards. I'll probably tuck a little gift card in with each of these for a few of my sweet helpers.





 
I used the PML cards for the outer portion of the holder and trimmed Kraft cardstock for the inside. Two 3/4 inch slits were cut in the Kraft layer to hold the lip balm inside.  Here's a great tutorial and measurements for creating the holders. I adjusted the measurements because of using the PML cards, which are a bit smaller than the example in the tutorial; however, if using regular patterned paper you can cut it to any size you like! :) The flowers and butterfly were all cut with the Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge available through CTMH. 
 
Thank you so much for stopping by-- I hope you liked my little project! I'd love to read your comments. :)
 
Keep hopping along... Shelly's blog is next, and I know she has something wonderful to share!
