Mini-Paper Pad Class | Week #3 | Rich in Laughter...

We are in Week #3 of the She's Crafty Mini-Paper Pad Class and I have a fun layout of my husband and our middle son to share with you.

Here's a look at the kit...which when I created the kit several weeks ago, I had TOTALLY DIFFERENT photos in mind...lol

--------------------------------------------

And...here's a look at the layout - a sequence of events where I was trying to get a photo of the two of them but our son had a totally different idea (only to be blocked by my husband's quick hands)...

------------------------------------------------------

Here are some closeups of the embellishments (which by the way, this layout might have to MOST EMBELLISHMENTS I've ever used on one layout). You can also see the 'splatter' at the bottom left and top right - that's from a Sapphire Shimmer Brush (you can see all the shimmer in my IG photos)...

-----------------------------------------------------

Don't the little sentiments and embellishments fit this layout PERFECTLY! If you recognize that striped patterned paper and those yellow sentiment strips, they're from one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITE collections from CTMH - So Much Happy. The background pink patterned paper is from Sweet Girl.

Don't forget to check out my YouTube process video where I walk you through the method to my madness...

Bear Hugs...

Another month has come and gone and while I'm sad June is over, I am so HAPPY for July!!! Not only is July the month of our annual Convention (in pretty Utah this year) but it's also FINALLY time to use this month's SOTM (which I INSTANTLY fell in love with in March when I saw this Seasonal Expressions!).

This month's list of CTMH Consultants participating is a short one so it won't take you long to hop around, fall in LOVE with this cute little bear and leave some comments along the way!

If you've come from Krista's Blog, you're on the right track...keep on hopping around 'till you get back to where you started. If you're starting here, WELCOME!

I decided to make a shaker card using the Stitched Rectangle and Circle Thin Cuts.... 

-------------------------------------------

I used the Doodled Background stamp set to stamp the little crosses (or x-es) all over...and I just LOVE the Sweet Girl paper with this stamp set....

Thanks for stopping by!

FREE Scrapbooking Patterns from CTMH...

shared from ctmh's blog...

Where to Find Free Scrapbooking Patterns (and More!)

We pride ourselves on our “Let Me Show You How” philosophy. That is one of the reasons we love providing free, downloadable patterns, whether that is right here on this blog, or on Closetomyheart.com.

Whenever we offer a workshop kit for sale, the instructions are available as a free downloadable PDF file right on our website. These instructions come fully equipped with additional materials needed lists, cutting guides, featured techniques, step-by-step assembly instructions, project photos, tips, AND patterns. Without any obligations or commitments, you can visit our site, find these workshops, download the files, and use the patterns in them at your discretion.

Even though these timeless patterns are designed with specific products in mind, we stand behind their versatility and encourage you to use them time and time again. With different papers, embellishments, and subjects matters, the finished results will always be unique.

Since this month is all about scrapbooking, we took the three scrapbook layout patterns from the Workshops Your Way® Sweet Girl Scrapbooking Kit and made new pages using The World Is Yours collection.

PATTERN 1:

SWEET GIRL:

THE WORLD IS YOURS:

PATTERN 2:

SWEET GIRL:

THE WORLD IS YOURS:

PATTERN 3:

SWEET GIRL:

THE WORLD IS YOURS:(You can download the instructions and patterns for these layouts here, or on our website here.)

In each of our seasonal catalogs, you will find one scrapbooking and one cardmaking workshop for every paper collection offered. The scrapbooking workshops walk you through creating three coordinating 2-page layouts while the cardmaking workshops come with several card designs and patterns to make anywhere between 12 and 16 cards. Outside the catalogs, we also have regular monthly specials. Often, these promotions will include a workshop—this is where you will find instructions and patterns for other things as well, like mini albums and the occasional papercrafting project.

If you’re ever looking for a pattern, revisit some of your old workshops or come and visit us here or on our website. Remember, the patterns on our site are only available while the workshop kits they are featured in are, so make sure to grab them while you can!

Seasonal Expression 2 Blog Hop...

Welcome to the Seasonal Expression 2 Blog Hop featuring ALL NEW PRODUCTS from Close To My Heart!

We have 20 CTMH Consultants hopping tonight and it will be packed full of FABULOUS NEW PRODUCT!

If you came from Melinda's Blog, you're on the right track...keep on hopping 'till you get back to where you started. If you're starting here, WELCOME!!!

Now let's see what I made...I decided to use the SWEET GIRL line and it is soooo pretty! In fact I'm currently contemplating redoing the few pages I've completed of my daughter's album to this line (yes...I'm a scrapbooker and I only have a few pages done in her baby album and, YES, she is over 5 years old...lol)

Check out the SWEET GIRL line and find out it's not just for babies...like the card on top - it could go to one of your girlfriends...in fact, I'm thinking about redoing it and putting the saying "hey, girl, hey"...what do y'all think?

Now hop on over to Michelle's Blog and see what she has to share!
