Xyron and Kaisercraft - Day Four!

Day Four of the Xyron/Kaisercraft blog hop is here - and the creativity just keeps on coming!

I have three words for you - toilet paper rolls.  That is what Linda Neff used to made this AMAZING mini album!  She shares some fabulous tips and tricks to help you create your own on her blog today - the Kaisercraft 75 cents collection really lends itself beautifully to photos.

These little owl cards from Christina Heeren brighten my day just by looking at them! On her blog she shares not only these cards, but a fun photo stand and a step-by-step tutorial on how to create this fun piece of wall art - perfect for your kitchen or office.

Looking for a little Valentine's Day gift idea?  On her blog today Angela Ploegman shares a tutorial for creating this Box of Love - what a fun way to store your child's valentines!

Head on over to the Kaisercraft blog today for more great project ideas (like the layout from Hetty Hall below) and a chance to win a Xyron Mega Runner + refill.  We'll see you back here tomorrow for our last day of the blog hop and some giveaways of our own!

Xyron and Kaisercraft - Day Three!

The Xyron Design Team is over the moon about the new Beyond The Page products from Kaisercraft! Today Jessica Barnett and Van Nguyen continue what I am now calling "the fence series" - and these projects definitely have me in the mood for Spring!

The tutorial on Van's blog today walks you step by step through several techniques to create this lovely Bird Song wall art. This would make a great Mother's Day gift or graduation present - what a creative way to share a favorite quote or poem.

Jessica Barnett shares her tips for bringing texture to your projects in this tutorial on her blog today.  See how adding a photo can add just the right finishing touch and make this a customized home decor item.

Want more inspiration?  Head on over to Van's blog and check out this darling paper flower wreath (and a beautiful quilted card):

And as an added bonus Jessica has put together a video tutorial for this sweet gift bag!

Don't forget to head on over to the Kaisercraft blog today for another chance at winning a Xyron Mega Runner + refill and to put a little spring in your step with some gorgeous creations using the Kaisercraft Suga Pop collection - including this fantastic layout from Adriana Bolzon.  See you tomorrow for more inspiration!

Xyron and Kaisercraft - Day Two!

Spring is in the air on the blog today - with some great home decor pieces from two of our Xyron Design Team members!

Sharon Callis gives you TWO step-by-step tutorials on her blog today. She shows you how to create this lovely Bird on a Twig project (above) using the new Kaisercraft Flora Delight collection and her favorite Xyron products, then shares instructions on how to create this gorgeous photo frame (below) which I think could easily be made in to a Valentine's Day project.

If you love Sharon's fence project - how about a different spin? This Home wall hanging would look lovely in a foyer or as a housewarming gift - and on her blog today Angela Ploegman shows you how to make it (and shares a cute set of coordinating cards as well)!

Don't forget to stop by the Kaisercraft blog every day for your chance to win a Xyron Mega Runner and refill (and see some amazing projects) - we'll see you back here tomorrow for more inspiration!
