Our new collections have begun shipping out to stores all over the world. We can't wait for all of you to get your hands on them! We thought it would be fun to share some adorable projects today that feature Little Darlings. This collection is so wonderful and versatile. Today you will see some clever crafts from Laura Denison and Hilde Janbroers of our design team. These projects are going to knock your socks off! But first we want to let you know about this week's blog contest! Just leave us a blog or Facebook comment any time this week for your chance to win this lovely prize! A Kraft Reflections 12x12 paper pad, Metal Clothespin Staples and Antique Wood Stamp Set Staples! You can leave your comment any time this week. We will be choosing a random winner from either our blog or Facebook page and announcing them on Friday! What fun!
This first wonderful craft was made by Laura Denison. It's a baby cradle constructed from Graphic 45 Metal Staples and decorated in beautiful Little Darlings paper. Inside the crib is a book of adorable tags. This project is so unique and amazing. It demonstrates tremendous imagination and attention to detail. It just goes to show you what you can do when you think outside the box!
Supplies:
Little Darlings Paper Collections, Staples Door Plates, Staples, Metal Flowers, Staples Metal Button Brads, Staples Metal Tags, Staples Trim, Staples packaging
Next up is this sweet keepsake box by Hilde Janbroers. Hilde describes this wonderful creation as, "A keepsake box for my girls. To put their tiny little secrets in....( earrings, little notes...you name it )." What a wonderful way to use the Graphic 45 5x5 Kraftboard Altered Art Box! It is decorated in Little Darlings and Olde Curiosity Shoppe and it's just precious! It's amazing what can be done with our pretty papers! This is a wonderful idea for a gift for someone you love. Personalized keepsake boxes are always a charming way to show someone you care.
Wow, that cradle is amazing! What gorgeous detail.

Every design is beautiful. I love the Little Darlings line. It's a shame to cut it up - it should be framed and put on display.

Oh my word.. that cradle is the cutest thing EVER! I am always thinking of clever ways of giving gift cards. This would be perfect with the little tag book having a pocket to hold the card. Spectacular! The little keepsake box is adorable. I have one I created as a store sample for my youngest daughter, I think I will remake the box.
