The Singing Scrapper is Scrappin' In Harmony

I am so excited to share this scrapbook page.  I made it for my August Artfully Sent Cricut class .  This cartridge is intended for making amazing cards, but I’m trying to make other things with it now. I was inspired by the pocket cards that feature the days of the week.  I knew I had a trip coming up that I probably wouldn’t take a lot of pictures on.  So this layout is going to “force” me to take 3 pictures a day. I added a 4”x6” Flip Flap (Z4114) to every day of the week so that I could add 3 pictures or journaling for each day.  You could easily add more simply by stacking the flip flaps on top of each other. I spritzed the white cardstock with some Indian Corn Blue reinker to add some texture.  Then just embellished with a few banner cuts that are also on the Artfully Sent Cricut collection .  Last, the title was created with another pocket card that reads “everyday life”.  I used a circle punch to punch out the “life” then stamped ...

Hello!  I am here today to share another upcoming Card Club (to take place August 27) and this time we are using the Paper Fundamentals Adventure pack (Z2032) AND decorating a Journaling Cards Box (Z1953) .   I used just less than 1/4 of the paper pack to create 12 cards (3 each of the 4 designs).   Then chose any 12x12 sheet of paper from the Paper Fundamentals Adventure pack (Z2032) to cover the Journaling Cards Box (Z1953).   Since one side of the Paper Fundamentals Adventure pack (Z2032) is white with a pattern and the opposite is the same pattern that has been embossed with a glossy feel it was perfect to cover the Journaling Cards Box (Z1953). Simply add some White Shimmer Trim (Z3024) and flowers cut with your Art Philosophy cartridge (Z1686) then fill with cards. Since this paper pack includes 2 each of the 10 colors featured in the Adventure color palette it was easy to put the Cranberry and Topiary sheets together to make a Christmas card. ...

I am back from Close To My Heart’s annual Convention, this year in Anaheim, CA at Disneyland.  I had so much fun and saw tons of the amazing new products that I can’t wait to share with you. But first, I’m finally able to share with you the last collection from the 2014-2015 Annual Inspirations Idea Book, Seaside .  Some of us have been waiting 12 months for this collection.  Yeah, it’s finally here.  So who wants to join us in August for Scrapbook Club featuring the Seaside collection ? This page was designed by CTMH for the Workshop on the Go Kit.   The stamp set that comes in the Workshop on the Go kit has some great titles. I also added some of the Metallic Baker’s Twine .  Don’t you just love the look of the Seaside Assortment?  (They are the metal starfish and unfortunately they are already sold out.)   This second layout could easily be used for something other than beach pictures.  Just leave off the metal fish and add some ...

I needed a make-n-take for a recent Crop and I always try to use the upcoming Stamp of the Month for the project. Well, I liked the page pictured above so much that I decided to copy it. And since I copied it I didn’t think I should participate in the consultant Blog Hop, but here is the link to check out more artwork with this stamp set. I simply changed up the papers to coordinate with the colors in the photo.  I love the technique of stamping pigment inks on black cardstock for a chalkboard effect.  Remember to see more artwork with this stamp set, click here to follow the Blog Hop.
