Sweet Safari Valentine Cards...

Have you seen the ADORABLE Sweet Safari Collection! It's all about the CUTE, ADORABLE BABIES...BUT let me show you an alternative.

I am joining the Creative Design Team this week to share some Sweet DIY Valentine ideas on YouTube. These cards are my contribution.

The cards were made using a few Cricut Collections (Artiste, You Are Here and Artfully Sent) along with the NEW Sweet Safari Cricut Collection and the Sweet Safari Coordinating Cardstock...

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

For this first little card, I took several sentiments from the Artfully Sent, Artiste and You Are Here Cricut Collections and created the sentiment. The little tiny hearts are from the Perfect Match Special and I used those on each card, adhered with Liquid Glass...

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

This cute little card comes directly from the Sweet Safari Cricut Collection - I just erased the card base and envelope...

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

This card base is from the Artfully Sent Cricut Collection...isn't that giraffe the CUTEST!!!

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

Here's a look at what you get with the Sweet Safari Cricut Collection...two pre-designed cards, a bunch of sweet little animals, a title, a border as well as some other non-baby icons (clouds, palm tree, rainbow)...

Here's a look at the Sweet Safari Paper Packet with Sticker Sheet...ADORABLE, huh?

FREE Scrapbook Pattern for the New Year with CTMH...

shared from ctmh's blog...

A Free Scrapbook Pattern for the New Year!

For our last post of the year, as we wrap up 2020, we are sharing a free downloadable scrapbook pattern, complete with cutting diagrams and all!

Making its original debut with our Unforgettable collection a few years ago, we paired this timeless 12″ x 12″ pattern with another blast from the past, our revamped Blossom collection!

The Bring Back My Pack—Blossom collection features the Blossom paper packet, sporting the same classic paper designs that made it popular the first time around, with a refreshed color palette and several coordinating products—including a brand new sticker sheet and stamp set, Cherished Blossoms! We also brought back a popular stamp set that originally debuted with the Blossom collection, Shower Flowers.

Blossom Paper Packet + Sticker Sheet:

• 

• 

• 

• 

12″ x 12″ sheets, 2 each of 3 double sided designs, and one coordinating sticker sheet.

Blossom Coordinating Cardstock:

12″ x 12″ sheets, 2 each of White Daisy, Lagoon, Smoothie, Glacier, Green Apple, and Nectarine.

My Acrylix® Shower Flowers stamp set:

NEW! My Acrylix® Cherished Blossoms stamp set:

Outlined images coordinate with Thin Cuts metal dies (Cherished Blossoms Stamp + Thin Cuts).

We pride ourselves in being the “let me show you how®” memory-keeping company, and in providing the most comprehensive scrapbooking and cardmaking patterns. When you download the Unforgettable scrapbooking pattern, you will find that it also comes with cutting diagrams to make it even easier to create these pages from any of your favorite papers and embellishments, not just what we are showing you here. All of our patterns lend themselves to any memories that are special enough to preserve.

Download this free scrapbook pattern below and let us show you how easy scrapbooking can be!

For further inspiration, take a look at how we adapted elements from this 12″ x 12″ pattern and used them to create a 6″ x 8″ layout.

Happy New Year!
