Joyful Stars Blog Hop–Wanderful-Washi layout!

Welcome to our monthly  
 Joyful Stars Blog Hop!!!!

We're excited to share our creativity with you using PRODUCTS from Close To My Heart!!  

 

Come on in and see what BEAUTIFUL projects my fellow consultants have creating using the AMAZING products from Close To My Heart!!

This blog hop is easy to do…just click on the link at the end of the post to go to the next creation!!  If you get lost along the way, CLICK HERE to see the list of this month’s hoppers! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you have arrived from Lori Meadow’s blog you are right on track.   J

As I thought about what I wanted to share with you today…..I realized I had created a 2 page layout a few months ago & never share it here on my blog!!

So – let’s take a look at this layout….

Sorry for the glare of the protectors, but there is a reason behind this.

Flip flaps…..and we’ll talk about them in a moment. 

This was the 2 page make n take that I had at this past year’s Winter Retreat for those that chose to create it.  I offered it at my cost, and then taught the many different aspects of how we made this layout.

We used the retiring paper pack called Wanderful….a GREAT paper pack to use for many different occasions!

Let’s take a look at the Right page….because I’d like to share about Flip flaps! 

My teammate, Stephanie Huber, gave me this FUN idea – and so I tried it out on my own!!  See the 4x6 photo at the top of this page with my precious family….this WAS a 6x6 flip flap – CUT DOWN to create a 4x6 flip flap!!

So, you might say – CTMH already has 4x6 flip flaps….what are you doing? LOL!!!

That’s true, they do (& they are FABULOUS)…..HOWEVER – right now we only have 4x6 flip flaps that have adhesive on the side of the pocket…not a top hinge.

>>>>>>>>SO….by cutting off the bottom of our 6x6 flip flap, and adhering PRETTY gold dotted washi tape to seal it….we THEN have an adhesive strip on the TOP of our flip flap vs. the side adhesive…make sense???  We can now flip UP our flip flap – instead of flip out.J

Take a look at the cluster of goodies on the right page….

There were 2 stamp sets used here…the Paper Wishes stamp set

and the Documenting Moments stamp set.

This stamp set is becoming a FAST FAVORITE!!!   Feel free to go back and check out the picture of the layout…..I used MANY of these stamped images in a LOT of different ways!!  FUN!!! J

I also LOVE to use our Base & Bling charms on my projects!!  These little guys, in this case an owl, add just a fun touch to the page.

Next – DID YOU NOTICE….all the washi tape I used all OVER this layout???

EVERYWHERE you see the striped pink lines AND the gold polka dots – they aren’t paper>>>>>>>they are Washi tape!!!!

I will miss this washi as it is leaving us by the end of this month…but even if it’s not in our NEW, upcoming  2015 Annual Inspirations, I know I will keep using this FABULOUS accent tape!!

IN case you’d like to re-create this on your own – here are the supplies I used.
