The Singing Scrapper is Scrappin' In Harmony

As some of you know I just had the privilege of enjoying my 4th Incentive Trip that I earned with CTMH to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.  It was wonderful and just what I needed. One perk of earning the trip is that CTMH designs a scrapbook for us.  They cut all of the papers, provide instructions with pictures on how to assemble, and provide all of the embellishments AND stamp sets.  So I decided to take a few of the layouts and make a Scrapbook Club Workshop with them.  We will create 10 - 12”x12” pages using the NEW Dreamin’ Big paper collection, complements, sequins, and more at my April Scrapbook Club. These layouts feature so many neat techniques from cutting paper diagonally to adding a few stamps like the splatters. The above title was cut from the Cricut Flower Market  cartridge . I haven’t decided on all of my titles yet since I don’t know what pictures I will put on the pages.  (Hence the reason some stickers are still on their backing...

Sorry I have been MIA for a while, but here I am with THIS month’s Card Workshop .  Sunday, March 26 from 2-5pm (that’s just 2 weeks away) We will make 8 cards total (2 each of 4 designs) all with “shakers” in them .  This one is my favorite and uses the Emojis stamp set (C1669). Are you wondering where the “Happy Birthday” on the first card came from?  It’s the cut out from this card using the “Happy Birthday” Thin Cut (Z3304) that is on sale THIS Month ONLY. This one might be my favorite because it was completely my design and idea (I usually scrap lift).  It also uses the Operation Smile stamp set – True Love (D1711).   For every stamp set purchased CTMH will donate $7 to this great organization. This card is the only one that opens to reveal the sentiment on the inside, yet you can see it through the plastic of the shaker. Wondering how I made the plastic shaker parts?  Two words – FLIP FLAPS!!! Join us for the workshop to find out more ...

I wanted to do something a little different for my monthly Scrapbook Club so I used 3 of the Basics paper packets .  If you thought Basics were boring think again. Thursday, March 9 at 6:30pm Sunday, March 12 at 2pm Kits are available if you aren’t local. Start counting – we will create 5 layouts (that’s 10 – 12”x12” pages). Each layout is embellished with the You & Me Complements . I also used the Uptown Ribbon pack on these pages.  One of my favorite features is the white “XOXO” ribbon can be colored to match anything. And last I added some of the Picture My Life Tabbed Journaling cards which make it so easy to add journaling because they are already lined. I f you would like to create these pages then join us at one of the following workshops or buy a kit and I’ll include detailed instructions, cutting diagrams, and pictures for free. Come and create with us! Thursday, March 9 at 6:30pm Sunday, March 12 at 2pm   Cost start...
