I created a one page layout & my layout design comes from the Make It From Your Heart, vol 2, pattern #7. 

I can’t believe it…but I actually only stamped ONE ITEM on this entire layout!!  That is VERY unusual for me…but I was really happy with the results of my page, even minus my stamping!!! 

Can you guess what image is stamped on this page??  J

As part of this page, I used 3 leftover Picture My Life (PML) scrapbooking cards, and then created another “card” from our new Paper Fundamentals cardstock. (light tan card)

(CLICK HERE to see my original post using PML Scrapbooking cards. )

I love the Paper Fundamentals with their “glossy design on 1 side  & regular pattern on the other”.  This makes this paper a very USEABLE item in anything that you are creating!!

I chose to include the use of 2 of CTMH’s EXCLUSIVE Cricut collections -the Artbooking & Artiste cartridges, in this layout.  The honeycomb shape (on the left side of the page) comes from the Artbooking collection, while the  “perfect” bird clip comes from the Artiste! 

I love how the Skylark Complements add pizazz & flair to ANY item you are creating!  I inked the edges of the colored chipboard and then just adhered it to my layout!
