I Heart Studio J

This month, I needed some custom sized photos, so I used the No Limits layout in Studio J to do that and then created some additional layouts!  Love how easy it is to knock them out and they look fabulous.

I like to intermix the digital layouts with my traditional ones.  Then I can focus my energy on events that will be more than a couple of pages and feel productive by having some things finished.  You create and CTMH prints them out for you & you get JPG files.  How awesome is that?!

I recently went to a Close to My Heart event held by the corporate staff.  Of course, we took pictures!! Here is one of two layouts I created (stop by next week for the other one!).

This one I created from scratch - I chose the paper, the layout and then altered it (i.e. color of the embellies and added the photo mats).  Additionally, I added in the corresponding compliments (i.e. stickers, washi) to finish it off!  Love how it came out & I'm using a paper pack (Heartstrings) that is retired & I have not used yet!

Quick, easy, and they arrive ready for my album!!  Check it out here for F*R*E*E*.  Find out more info HERE.

Blossom Cards - #3

The Blossom Workshop on the Go (WOTG) Card Kit ROCKS!! 

This kit is available limited time (aka get it before August).  It's honestly one of my favorite card kits released in a long time.  Get all you need to make 5 of 3 designs (total of 15 cards) & you'll have some extra goodies left over! 

It's easy & quick to assemble and I used EVERY single stamp in the set.  Plus I usually alter the cards in some way; I didn't feel compelled to do so at all with this kit!

Here is card #3 of the Blossom workshop!  I used Liquid Glass to adhere the bow in place and Thin 3D foam tape on the card to pop up the candles.

Taste of Summer

It's National Scrapbooking Month & that means a CTMH promotion!



Here is a card I made using this bright and cheery paper pack - Taste of Summer - which is only available during May 2015.  (BONUS - there is a corresponding limited edition stamp set too!) I gave this card to my grandma for Mother's Day.

I stamped the 2 big flowers on the bottom on White Daisy cardstock and then cut them out using the amazing Micro-Tip scissors.  They are raised with 3D foam tape. The other flowers are stamped directly on the white daisy cardstock, along with the leaves. Used the purple glitter gems for some bling and reflect the Taste of Summer paper. 

For the "You are worth celebrating" sentiment, I used the masking technique (with tape) to get it to look like that.

The flaps open up to the message I wrote to my mom.  The card fits in a standard envelope too.  Gram loved it & the different style card I made.

Products used: Blossom Cardmaking WOTG stamp set; Shower Flowers (C1612); Taste of Summer paper pack; Score Board; White Daisy & Thistle cardstock; Pear, Canary, & Black Stamp Pads, Purple Glitter Gems; Purple Glitter Trim; Regular 3D Foam Tape.

Art With An Attitude Blog Hop - Taste of Summer

The Stampers with an Attitude team is doing a blog hop, themed {Art with an Attitude}!!  "Who are we?" you might ask?  We are Close to My Heart (CTMH) consultants, who are passionate and talented crafters!

You are in the right place if you just came from

{Sheila Bennett's blog}

For this blog hop, you'll be hopping through inspirations using the May National Scrapbooking Month's paper pack (& stamp set) Taste of Summer.  This paper pack & stamp set are ONLY available during May 2015!!

Here is a card I made using this bright and cheery paper pack - perfect for Mother's Day!

I stamped the flowers in first generation and then second generation on White Daisy cardstock; alternating tones in the flowers.  I cut them out using the amazing Micro-Tip scissors and used the 3D Foam Tapes to alternate their heights (bottom Sunset flower in the corner is lifted with the regular 3D foam tape; while the two big flowers on both sides are lifted with the Thin 3D foam tape. The other small flowers are adhered directly to the card).  Then I just stamped the different leaf-stamps to give it a pop of color and a home for the flowers.

The flaps open up to the message I wrote to my mom.  The card fits in a standard envelope too.


Products used: Blossom Cardmaking WOTG stamp set; Shower Flowers (C1612); Taste of Summer paper pack; Score Board; White Daisy & Sunset cardstock; Sunset, Pear, Black, & Cranberry Stamp Pads, Pink Glitter Gems; Regular & Thin 3D Foam Tape.
