		<description><![CDATA[Have you noticed all those talented ladies out there doing adorable hybrid craft projects?  Well, I sure have!  I love making crafts, but for some reason, just haven't taken the plunge into hybrid.  It's not that I mind the mess, or the physical supplies....I am just too darn lazy to print the papers!  But I have vowed to try a few hybrid projects in 2010 and to get myself in the mood I thought I'd feature some of the projects that I've run across that have been done with my digiscrap products!]]></description>

<p>Have you noticed all those talented ladies out there doing adorable hybrid craft projects?  Well, I sure have!  I love making crafts, but for some reason, just haven&#8217;t taken the plunge into hybrid.  It&#8217;s not that I mind the mess, or the physical supplies&#8230;.I am just too darn lazy to print the papers!  But I have vowed to try a few hybrid projects in 2010 and to get myself in the mood I thought I&#8217;d feature some of the projects that I&#8217;ve run across that have been done with my digiscrap products!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/IMG_5643-web-MBatton-cards.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-368" title="IMG_5643-web-MBatton-cards" src="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/IMG_5643-web-MBatton-cards-400x266.jpg" alt="IMG_5643-web-MBatton-cards" width="400" height="266" /></a></p>
<p>I believe these <a href="http://www.digishoptalk.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=462608">Happy Birthday and Thank You Cards</a> by Stampin_Rachel were the first hybrid projects to be made with my designs!  Rachel used my <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/shop/product.php?productid=20661">September Days  kit</a> when she made these last Autumn as a guest on my team. JanMary made some Christmas cards last year too &#8211; but I can&#8217;t seem to locate a photo.  Too bad &#8211; they were adorable!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/pencil-box-and-tag-complete2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-367" title="pencil-box-and-tag-complete2" src="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/pencil-box-and-tag-complete2-400x328.jpg" alt="pencil-box-and-tag-complete2" width="400" height="328" /></a></p>
<p>Linda created this adorable <a href="http://www.thehybridchick.com/2009/09/pencil-box/">pencil box</a> for The Hybrid Chick Blog using my <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/shop/product.php?productid=20364&amp;cat=259">Butterfly Dreams {Papers}</a> &#8211; be sure to check out her blog post, as she shows some additional photos and tips on creating this project.  She even made a little ball point pen insert so the pen would coordinate with the box!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/24786"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-366" title="vG_1776bEST" src="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/vG_1776bEST-400x400.jpg" alt="vG_1776bEST" width="400" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>Next we have <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/24786">The Best</a> by vervegirl using my <a href="http://thedigichick.com/shop/product.php?productid=20323&amp;amp;cat=0">1776</a> papers.  I love that the stamp she used behind the wording is so similar to the pattern on the papers and how she carried the polka dot theme into the ribbon. I would love to receive a card like this!<a href="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/candy-bar-wrapper.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-370" title="candy-bar-wrapper" src="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/candy-bar-wrapper-400x400.jpg" alt="candy-bar-wrapper" width="400" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>Next is this fun <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/27350">Halloween Candy Bar Wrapper</a> by Yamstamps.  She used <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/shop/product.php?productid=20723">This is Halloween</a>, my collab with 4 Shades of Blue.  I like how she used the page border around the skinny edge of the box for some extra embellishing!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/rawrpunch.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-371" title="rawrpunch" src="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/rawrpunch-400x400.jpg" alt="rawrpunch" width="400" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>I fell in love with this <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/33775">juice bottle wrapper and treat topper</a> combo by ccouch as soon as I spotted it!  She used my kit, <a href="She used my kit, Rawr-o-saurus Rex. ">Rawr-o-saurus Rex</a>. What a fun and easy way to dress up your kids snacks!  I can&#8217;t wait until it&#8217;s my daughter&#8217;s turn as snack bringer at preschool so I can try this idea out too.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Silhouette-Ornament2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-373" title="Silhouette-Ornament" src="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Silhouette-Ornament2-400x400.jpg" alt="Silhouette-Ornament" width="400" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>And look at this adorable <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=36922">ornament</a> that SunshineTK created using my collab with Elise&#8217;s Pieces, <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/shop/product.php?productid=21087">We Can Build a Snowman</a>. Tee hee, I get a smile whenever I see those cute little snow people I made&#8230;my son was sitting next to me when I was designing them and he was upset because I hadn&#8217;t given the boy snowman a mouth like the girl &#8211; so we added one in, just for him!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/TopHeavy_web.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-374" title="TopHeavy_web" src="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/TopHeavy_web-400x400.jpg" alt="TopHeavy_web" width="400" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>And another <a href="http://kelleighratzlaff.com/2009/11/30-ornaments-in-30-days-day-16/">ornament</a> made by none-other-than Kelleight Ratzlaff for her <a href="http://kelleighratzlaff.com/2009/11/?s=30+ornaments+in+30+days&amp;x=7&amp;y=8">30 ornaments in 30 days</a> blog series.  She used my <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/shop/product.php?productid=21055">Best of Winter 2008 {papers}</a> I love how she embellished the dots on the front of the ornament with little pearls!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/CIP2009-11-10_080-tdc.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-375" title="CIP2009-11-10_080-tdc" src="http://www.mellowbutterfly.com/designblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/CIP2009-11-10_080-tdc-400x400.jpg" alt="CIP2009-11-10_080-tdc" width="400" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>And last, but definitely not least is this absolutely amazing <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/36599">gingerbread house ornament</a> by <span>sung1203.  She</span> used the dark brown paper from <a href="http://www.thedigichick.com/shop/product.php?productid=21012">Always and Forever </a>- never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that someone would look at that paper and think, &#8220;Hey!  I know!  This could be gingerbread!&#8221;  And to come up with the idea to put little treats in there with an advent like countdown&#8230;.well, it just blows me away!</p>
<p>So, are you inspired to try your hand at hybrid? I know I am!</p>
