Hey there it Treasa with another Project Life Kids post.
I can’t believe how fast the summer has gone by and that school starts this week. My granddaughter Kaylee will be going into the second grade and I wanted to create something I could use in my PL album to document this exciting time. I wanted to not only document the normal things, like first day of school photo, teachers name and school. I wanted to capture a piece of Kaylee during this time. So I created a card for her to fill out to capture some aspects of her life right now. To keep it personal I had a personalized flair made with her name and her grade. I thought it was the perfect finishing touch. Here is what I came up with:
I created a file pocket to kind of represent the files kept in the cabinet at school and added some of the star washi tape from the shop to the front of the file pocket. I added a card that says Star Student, this will be a place to put her first day of school photo on. Then I added a Friends card for her to add her friends names. I also used some of the new star and heart Sticky Pickle Spots from the shop. And then on the bus die cut I put her bus number. Finishing it off I used the personalized flair from the shop that says “Kaylee Grade 2”.
I have to say that Kaylee loves contributing to my memory keeping in my PL album and it definitely it more personal to me.
I hope this inspires you to get the children in your life more involved in your PL album.
Supplies Used:
Gold sequin star from Star Spangled Relish Mix
Colorful Star Scatter Washi
Stars Sticky Pickle Spots
Heart Sticky Pickle Spots
Personalized Flair – All you have to do is send a message requesting what you would like
Until next time!!
Hi there, its Treasa here today and I wanted to share how I get my granddaughter involved in my Project Life album. Of course I have tons of photos of her and memorabilia from places and events but I wanted to have her add a personal touch to my album. So I have her draw me a picture or write me a note on a PL card. I think it will be a great way to look back on and remember that time.
Today I gave her a plain 4×6 piece of heavy weight cardstock and asked her to draw me a picture of her and I and this is what she came up with:
I just added a star for the flair to sit on and added the date to the card. In case you can’t tell that is her and me sitting by the pool.
I love how I can get custom flair from The Crafty Pickle to help make my PL album more personalized. The Art by flair is also available in several different colors and you can also get it as a magnet and display your little ones art on the refrigerator.
So grab some blank PL cards and hand your kids some crayons, markers, pencils and let them help make your PL album more personal and special.
Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful week!!!
Happy Friday Everyone!
Every Friday though the summer months we will bring you a new idea/concept using flair. Your not going to want to miss these fun posts! These ideas will come from not only our designers but also super neat flairtastic ideas we find from our customers and other talented papercrafters. Make sure that when you share any of your projects on Instagram or Facebook using flair, that you tag it #FlairTasticFriday. You just might see your own photo featured here on our blog!
This week we will be showing you a few ideas taking flair off your pages to actual wearable art!
First up we have an adorable project created by our designer Joann!
Joann added some flair from our Cute Bugs set for her adorable little girl. How precious are these? I think they would be great in the center of a bow as well. Totally adorable, Joann!!
Next we have a few ideas that have caught our eye… Take a look!
These adorable flair ribbons are just too adorable and would make a perfect wearable award or celebration pin. Love this for birthdays, weddings, achievements, and so much more. These were designed by Page Evans.
If you were an 80’s or early 90’s kid chances are you had a jacket similar to this one. I remember wearing my collection on my varsity jacket in high school. (photo found on pinterest)
What a great idea of wearing a bunch of pin back buttons of the same theme? We saw this photo on pinterest and fell in love with it!
I love that these are kid designed buttons. You can read more about it HERE. For a smaller option our “Make your own Flair Buttons” would be a similar and fun idea.
Last but not least we have a photo share from one of our very own customers!
Customer Liz ordered a custom button necklace with her loved ones names inside our glitter heart flair, we thought her daughter needed one as well. Aren’t these two just adorable!
Not only do we carry necklaces, but these adorable Hair ties as well.
We can make these hair ties with any flair in the shop or even a custom design.
Keep your eye out for our new wearable interchangeable magnetic jewelry coming to TCP’s shop in just a few weeks!
It must be the kid in me that loves flair so much. I loved wearing it then and I love wearing it now. Adding it to my papercrafting is an added bonus.
How do you wear your flair?
Stop by The Crafty Pickle Etsy Shop if you haven’t been by recently. We will be releasing a few little things between now and our next big release. We will also be having a big TCP Birthday celebration in August with giveaways and a brand new exclusive foil flair!
Dont forget to use the hashtag #FlairTasticFriday to play along with us!
See you for more FlairTastic Ideas next Friday!
Till Then….
Happy Crafting!
Hi there, its Treasa here today to share with you some cards I created using flair from the Movie Night set and the Cinema Relish Mix from The Crafty Pickle Shop.
First up I created a popcorn gift card holder. I used the movie tickets flair from the Movie Night set and the reel from the Cinema Relish Mix.
You pull the popcorn out and the gift card is tucked up inside. I also added a star from the Cinema Relish Mix as well as some Film Strip washi tape from the shop.
I also wanted to create a couple cards for my Project Life album.
I created the base of both cards digitally then went to town adding some items from the shop.
For the Movie Night card, i used the Popcorn flair from the Movie Night set and a reel, movie camera and stars from the Cinema Relish Mix as well as used some of the Film strip washi tape.
For the “I Reely Love You ” card, I put two reels from the Cinema Relish Mix together and added some thin ribbon to look like the film . I also used some of the stars from the Cinema Relish Mix too.
Thanks so much for stopping by!!
Remembering Dad
This Father’s Day will be particularly hard for me and my family this year. We lost our Dad in February to a traumatic accident.
My Dad was an awesome guy and the life of the party. We know that he wouldn’t want us to be sad on this day, so I decided
we would celebrate him on Father’s Day. Taniesa created some special flair for me so that I could use them to create cards for my
PL album. I have to say when I first saw them , I cried and I couldn’t believe how perfect and how special these were.
First I wanted to create a card using this My Favorite Memory of my Dad flair so I could document that memory of my Dad.
His grandchildren called him Superman, they seen him as a strong man who could get through anything, so I wanted to create
a card to honor our ” Superman” using a custom flair of a photo of my Dad.
Lastly I wanted to share a lovely gift that Taniesa sent to me for my family and me to wear on Father’s Day, how special is this ribbon and its something we could wear every Father’s Day!!
I love how special these custom flair are and how they will help us celebrate and remember my Dad on this Father’s Day.
Taniesa can create custom flair for you no matter the subject, just send her a message in The Crafty Pickle shop and let
her know what you are looking for.
Here are two cards that Stephanie designed…..The first one is a graduation card for her niece using the graduation confetti sequins.
And then here is a link to the fun sequin that she used:

Here are the fun products from the store that she used on this card:

Hi again Crafty Friends!
Two posts in one day means it’s a GREAT Friday! Today our designer, Cathy, is showing off one fantastic layout using TCP flair! Check it out!
Hi everyone, it’s Cathy here again with another layout for The Crafty Pickle. One of my favourite embellishments to use on a layout is flair badges, and since I have so many awesome ones from The Crafty Pickle I figured I’d see how many I could fit on a page! I mean, what’s better than one flair badge? Well in this case six flair badges! Now right now Taniesas’ wonderful shop is on a short break, but when it’s up and running again be sure to check out the awesome collections I used to create my layout! I also used some stamps from Close To My Heart to round out my design! In order to achieve dimension with my badges I used hot glue for some and foam squares for the others so that I could layer them. Don’t be afraid to grab some of your stash of badges and pile ’em up high! The more the merrier!
Hi Crafty Friends!
Today we have a card for you by our fabulous DT member, Joann! She has a great card using both CTMH product and TCP flair! Take a look.
Hi, thanks for stopping by today! I am sharing with you another masculine card. A quick tip that I found was, pick your color combo out first and you’ll find out that the card will come together quite quickly.
Hi Crafty Friends!
I hope your having a great week. Today our DT member, Julie, is sharing a layout all about herself! How often do we forget about documenting us because we are so busy documenting our family and friends? Take a look at her fabulous layout!
