Scrapbook {Sat}: Daisy Meadows Easter Wishes 2-page Layout

 Hello, Kraftie Friends!

Easter is almost here! I'm sharing a 2-page layout I made using CTMH Daisy Meadows Scrapbooking Workshop Kit:

It comes with all supplies (designer papers + some exclusive ones for this kit, die cuts, sticker sheet, enamel dots and page protectors) to make 3 two-page Layouts:

All you need is adhesive of your choice and journaling pen!

Here's my take...I changed some things, but just a little bit (sorry the colors are off...I took them on different days):

Workshop {Wed}: Daisy Meadows Cardmaking Workshop Kit

 Hello, Kraftie Friends!

I'm featuring CTMH Daisy Meadows Cardmaking Workshop Kit today:

There's a metal die from CTMH Daisy Meadows Cardmaking Workshop Kit and ever since I saw it, I had this idea...to make it into a...

#1 Box

The arch on top makes for perfect handles! The stamps and flower die cuts come with the Kit. You get 4 of those, so you don't have to run 1 die a bunch of times. I embossed the sides with a floral embossing folder from my stash. You can fill it with small treats!

If you use the die as intended, the gates can open! Here are some project ideas below:

I'll have to make a card of my own soon...

Then, I had to make...

#2 Flower Box Pop- Up Card

I added die cuts from other companies + sneak peek of stamps from CTMH April Stamp of the Month - you'll get to see it tomorrow!

It can fold flat and be mailed in an A2 envelope.

French Dies {Fri}: Thank You Butterfly Die Cut Card

 Hello, Kraftie Friends!

Today I'm sharing a card with a partial inlaid die cut (sneak peek of new products coming soon!). My Cuttlebug machine and plates are old and sometimes it doesn't cut well, so I end up with these "happy accident" inlaid die cut panels...lol!

Freestyle Stamped/Die Cut Card

I got lucky the butterfly didn't cut well right in the center! I backed it with a purple patterned paper and added some more colors with alcohol-based markers. Then, I added some stamping and sentiment.
