The Singing Scrapper is Scrappin' In Harmony

Time is running out to get your hands on this month’s special Live Beautifully paper collection and the May stamp of the month, Live Laugh Love . I just finished this layout that we will also make at June’s Scrapbook Club this week. This paper and stamp set are both featured in this layout (along with a few other embellishments). I stamped the title and flowers with Memento Ink then colored with our Shin Han Touch Twin Markers. Click here to order yours before May 31 when they are gone for good. Thanks for stopping by. Jaime

“Waterfalls and Revolving Doors, what are those?”  I’m so glad you asked, because those are the cards that we are making at next month’s Card Club, Thursday, June 22 from 6:30-9:30pm. I have really been interested in creating “moveable or interactive” cards this year. So I pulled out my Magic How-To-Book.  This book was created for scrapbooking pages with different types of interactive elements, but you can easily transpose them for use on cards as well. One of my favorites is the waterfall technique. It looks really impressive and complicated, but once you learn the steps it’s easy to replicate. As you can see I couldn’t stop with just one.  This card would look great with a name on it too, a short one of course. I also made a card with a revolving door. Simply spin the spinner on top to reveal another saying.  I couldn’t stop with just 3 cards so I added one more using the June stamp of the month, Hello Foxy. Cutting diagrams, patterns and instructions will be share

It’s time for another Scrapbook Club and this month I am sharing the special Live Beautifully collection .    The Live Beautifully collection was created in honor of National Scrapbooking Month and is ONLY available during the month of May. CTMH asked one of their amazing consultants, Karen Pedersen, to create this workshop.  She did not disappoint, these pages are gorgeous. Since complements were not created to accompany this paper collection I choose to use up some older packs like the Sugar Rush and Hello Lovely complements.  (Sugar Rush Complements are no longer available.) You’re probably wondering how some of the titles were created.  They have been stamped with the Live Beautifully stamp set. If you would like to create these pages then join us at one of the following workshops or buy a kit and I’ll include my instructions for free. Come and create with us!   Thursday, June 1 at 6:30pm Sunday, June 4 at 2pm   Cost starts at just $45 this includes a full p

May is National Scrapbooking Month and Close To My Heart always creates a paper packet sometimes with a coordinating stamp set.  This year it’s called Live Beautifully and it’ s available ONLY during the month of May. CTMH asked Consultant, Jacquie Paech, to design a card workshop to share with all consultants.  So this is my May Card Workshop . Sunday, May 21 from 2-5pm The workshop creates 20 cards total ( 2 each of 10 designs ) and I added a bonus Father’s Day card. This card features the “Happy Birthday” thin cut that unfortunately is sold out  However, I still have 1 in stock – let me know if you want it. The last 2 cards are stamped with the Finding the Words stamp set (D1646). Of course you can’t forget to add a little shimmer like I did to the heart in this picture. This kit is beautiful, but I realized that Father’s Day would be after this class so my attendees might need to make one of those.  So here’s my bonus Father’s Day card using the new Jack-Cardmak

There’s a new Seasonal Expressions 2 Idea Book that starts today.  It features 4 new paper collections , including one masculine, one girlie, one “prickly” ( check it out to see what I mean ), and one that will get rid of all your worries ( it’s my favorite ). If you place an order on my website you will be prompted to add a book for free. Thanks for stopping by. Jaime
