We're featuring the Lollydoodle Paper Collection this month. 

I used the paper that came in the Workshops On The Go™ Lollydoodle Cardmaking Kit. After cutting the papers for the set of 15 cards, I used the "scraps" for my projects (I just didn't follow the cutting guide...so I ended up with more paper to play with!). I know...what a rebel...=)

Here are my projects:

Card:

And a 8x8 layout:

After I took the pictures, I realized I didn't tuck in some feathers in the fold (top left corner) as planned...

I made it for my niece, so the plan is to put it in a black frame. I didn't take a pic with the frame, so here's what it would look like:

Supplies:

C1584 Feathers

Stamp set from the Lollydoodle Cardmaking Kit

Z1807 Pink Glitter Gems
Artbooking Cricut Collection
White Daisy Cardstock

Bundled Up Scrapbook Layout

This 12 x 12 2-page layout is for the Scrapbooking challenge at H2H!
The theme is Cozy & Cuddly and it needs CTMH Dimensional Elements on it...

It was cold that day, but "baby" B really wanted to go outside for a walk...he grabbed his shoes and jacket himself! =)
Grandma watched him while mommy (a.k.a. me) took pictures. I HAD to go inside after a while because of the cold...but he didn't want to at all!

I used the Artbooking Cricut Cartridge for the cuts and Dimensional Elements Signage (Z1902) - arrow (on the left page) and circle (on the right page).

Stamp sets:
C1506 Flakey Friends
2 stamp sets that come with the Artbooking Collection
Frosted WOTG Cardmaking Kit stamp set (retired)

All supplies are CTMH, except for the patterned paper (The Paper Studio) and ink pads (Memento and VersaMagic/Imagine Crafts).

Thanks for stopping by!

Shabby Chic at H2H!

Hello,

This is my last project for H2H CTMH Challenge Blog as a guest designer...it was so fun to design for them!
The challenge this week is Shabby Chic...

These are my creations...

First, a card:

I used two of the 3 x 4 cards from the new Picture My Life™ Balloon Ride Scrapbooking Program (Z1948), Love Doily (B1418) and Fabulous You (C1533) stamp sets, Flourishes cuts using the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge, Flowers from the Artiste Cricut Cartridge and lace.
I also used a stamp from Distressed Backgrounds (D1544) on the flourishes for some texture, but I'm not sure if you can see it from the photos...
(P.S. I'm entering this card in the Word Art Wednesday Challenge #120: Anything Goes)

My second project, using the Flip Stand Album from CTMH:

I'm still working on a few more pages...will post them when they're done! =)
(Please note that I haven't taken the protective film off the flip stand album, yet. So it looks kind of frosted...and I'm entering it in Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Wedding or Anniversary).

Thanks for stopping by!
And I hope you're having fun creating and linking your creations (you have until the end of the month)!

Altered Photo Frame and Cake!

Hello dear friends,

My third project(s) for Heart 2 Heart CTMH Challenge Blog are here!
This week the challenge is Flourishes...hope you're playing along with this month's challenges! =)

I don't know about you...but I love the new Skylark Collection from the newest CTMH Idea Book & Catalog!!! And I love the projects that feature the Ivy Lane Collection on page 24.
Here's what inspired me:

So, since I love cake, too...I decided to "bake" and decorate my own cake (actually, just a slice) using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.
You can cut flourishes (from the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge) to embellish the cake slice...

...or you can use stamps (C1503 The Best Things)!

The flowers are from the Artiste Cricut Cartridge, and the layered butterfly is from the Artbooking Cricut Cartridge.

And I also altered a photo frame with Skylark!
Made a mess on my craft sheet, because I spilled the glue...but it was totally worth it!
