I just had to share one of my new favorite paper places on the web. If you love paper projects, you will LOVE Mel’s blog – Melstampz. She includes the smallest detail in her tutorials. The tutorials are easy to follow, with step-by step instructions, lots of photos and printable templates. There also a ton of free paper designs. I love the one with all of the ephemera styled papers. Mel’s tags are adorable as well.
How Cute is this little ribbon spool with a hidden compartment?!♥
Just in time for the holidays, here is a whole, huge collection of adorable houses complete with detailed instructions for making them.
Free printables are Mel’s specialties. She also has examples of paper crafts made with her papers. Here is one of many fine selections on her blog: 17 different ephemera themed papers. The card below is made with one of the patterned papers.
When I say there is a massive amount of information and fabulous photos on this site, I mean MASSIVE! Believe me, you will NOT be disappointed when you visit Mel Stampz blog.Go to this page and you will find a comprehensive and complete list of everything that Mel has on her blog. It features beautiful photos, so you can pick and choose tutorials or posts by sight.

Thanks for your interest Jackie.
I drew the arms freehand. The third paragraph has a link for the jpeg. Where it says, “The first step was to draw out the shape of the frame arms. Click here if you would like a jpeg of the pattern.”
If you click on “here”, it will bring up the pattern.
The actual link address is: “https://sandramccall.files.wordpress.com/2018/11/chandeliere-arm.jpg

OH! And I should specify that I drew freehand, but I copied them as closely as I could from a picture in a home decor magazine.
