Default Need a fast, fun, fresh technique!

I belong to a scrapbook group that is going to a retreat in March. That gives me six months to come up with a great group project. Easy for some of you, but I'm not that creative.

I'm desperately seeking some ideas (tutorials with photos or a video) for innovative cards and/or scrapbook pages. I'm not asking for much, just something that is cheap (I'll be paying for the supplies for 12 ladies); easy (for even those of us who are creative challenged); fast (can be completed in about 30 minutes); and will knock their socks off.

Okay, I'll settle for cheap, easy, fast and kinda cute. :-)

How about this charm by Bev Rochester? LOTV's Ideas to Inspire

I love her cards - they are so luscious.

That is ADORABLE!
I don't have any large punches, maybe this means I need to invest in a Big Shot and some dies. :-)

Keep the ideas coming!!

I found this video for a cute spinner card:
Owl Spinner Card - YouTube

I think a card with a cute shrink plastic spinner might be the perfect item to share at the retreat.

I found the perfect thing!! all you really need is something theat can cut circles, and double-sided paper. Just go to the blog linked in THIS card description for a template for making the cute little Christmas trees!

Yes, me too. Great for DD to make for her friends. I might even get some supplies together to take in the caravan with us.
