If you’d like to learn ALL the details regarding this paper pack & stamp set CLICK HERE

This layout design originally came from my fellow Spa Girls, Gina Brandstetter & Briana Botstick. Then I took a few different twists of my own to create my page just a bit different than their original...FUN!!! J

This bright, fun, 2 page layout can be used for many different occasions….

The ink colors I used on this layout were Hollyhock and Pear.

We used TWO stamp sets in this layout….

The EXCLUSIVE Taste of Summer stamp set – this only available until May 31, 2015…

AND the Documenting Moments stamp set (which is available until March 31, 2015)

I can see myself using this stamp set quite often in the near future.

Here are a few close ups….

I really like the “Sweet”stamped image….it goes so well with this FUN paper pack!!

I stamped the “sweet” onto scrap paper, cut it out & then drew along the outside edges with my black journaling pen.

Take a look below….the journaling lines are actually a STAMP IMAGE!! J

The strawberries were stamped onto scrap paper and then cut out to “pop” up on this page.

Taste of Summer – Pucker Up 2 pg. layout

A few weeks ago I spent the weekend creating with my Spa Girls in Virginia.

The Spa Girls are my CTMH sisters that all won the first CTMH Spa Retreat back in 2010. All 9 of us that won this trip, connected in such a way that we continue to have a lunch reunion at Convention every year.

Well, meeting that 1 time every year – didn’t seem like enough time together…enough time to continue to cultivate our friendships, brainstorm and listen to each other. SO….last year we decided to get together for our own little retreat. J

Jaime has graciously hosted us the past 2 years in her FABULOUS crafting studio! :) Here we are --- 5 out of the 9---that could make it to this year’s retreat! We are hoping to be able to have a time where ALL of us can be together once again…until then, the tradition of our annual weekend together continues!

This year at our weekend, we were able to get our Taste Of Summer papers just in time to take to our retreat! We were able to brainstorm together and shared ideas for layouts and cards which was so much fun!

If you’d like to learn ALL the details regarding this paper pack & stamp set CLICK HERE

The layout that I am sharing with you today was designed by Shannon Pelletier. Shannon used CTMH’s Make It From Your Heart Vol 2, pattern #6 as her guide to put this layout together. When she completed the layout, then we could add stamped images, embellishments & have some fun with it! J

Here is the layout Shannon designed….she used the Taste of Summer paper pack PLUS she added some Pear Cardstock – the perfect color combo!!

The ink colors I used on this layout were Thistle, Pear, & Canary.

Take a peek at how much “wow” the liquid glass adds to the fruit!! I often to use Liquid Glass as a glue…but in this case, it was PERFECT to use on this beautiful fruit as an embellishment!

Using a black journaling pen to sketch some lines around the edges, seems to making an appearance again. I believe when I started scrapbooking 20 years ago, this was a common thing that you would see. Isn’t it interesting how styles seem to make always come back around? J

Taste of Summer with Mojo Monday

I’ve been wanting participate in a creating challenge recently, and I finally took some extra time and did it!! J What fun …to follow a sketch & complete the design however you feel led! Since it’s been a while since I’ve done a challenge, this time I pretty much stuck to the sketch that was provided.

When I saw this sketch, from Mojo Monday this week, I knew I was going to use this Close To My Heart’s EXCLUSIVE paper pack – Taste of Summer – as my starting point!

The Taste of Summer paper pack can ONLY be purchased from your CTMH consultant (click here if you don’t have a consultant J) during May 2015!!

It’s ONLY $8.95 for the 12 pack of designer papers! The bright & bold colors in the set just make you want to create!!

So after deciding to use those papers…this is the card I created…J

Mojo Monday_popsicle_taste of summer_card

What fun I had, creating this card….it just makes me think of summertime!! Summer will be here before we know it!

For my card, I chose to use the solid designs vs. the fruit designs of this paper. The purple, yellow & green colors were calling my name J…and those are the colors I ended up using.

I used the stamp set that comes from our Blossom Cardmaking Kit. I love the variety of images in this set!! The popsicle, stars, flowers…and words - Oh fun!!! (CLICK HERE to see details on this kit & my upcoming card class!)

I was inspired when I saw a card created by my friend, Jaime Llewellyn, where she used liquid glass on her popsicle! I LOVED the effect, so I had to recreate that on this card. Can you see the shimmer & dimension the Liquid Glass adds to this card?
