Fancy Folds - Creative Design Team Video Collab...

The Creative Design Team is back with another video collaboration featuring FANCY FOLDS!

I had an idea in my mind after working with flip flaps on a scrapbooking layout so I set out to create a card using my CTMH Cricut Collections.

Here's a look at the card...

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

the card has a LOT of patterns going on - the butterfly is made using the Mix-Ins and the Holographic Paper. The striped card front is from Seas the Day which is our NEW beachy line but you can't tell from this bold striped pattern!

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

When you slide the butterfly (cut from the Artbooking Cricut Collection), you get a peek at another patterned paper from the Mix-Ins line...that Smoothie Watercolor and Peach butterflies go perfectly together with the striped Seas the Day pattern on the front...

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

Fully unfolded you see the sweet little girl and sentiment from the NEW Spreading Sunshine stamp set...I left her uncolored so not to take away from the pretty butterfly background!

I hope you'll go check out my YouTube process video where I'll show you how to make your own FANCY FOLDS card...and you can check out the other UBER TALENTED Creative Design Team.

Pumpkin Painting...

Welcome to this month's BLOG HOPS WITH HEART! This month the theme is TRICKS & TREATS and boy do I have a treat for you!

If you're coming from Wendy's Blog, you're on the right track!!!

I am sharing a one-page layout I made using the Jeepers Creepers Collection - this layout will commemorate our tradition of "pumpkin painting". Each kid gets a pumpkin...we usually only carve one and paint the rest! I can't wait to take pictures this weekend of this "activity" and get the photos scrapped...

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

I used the Artistry Cricut Collection to spell the word "painting" then cut it out of one of the PML Cards that come with the Jeepers Creepers Paper Packet...adding eyeballs from the Jeepers Creepers Assortment was a FUN added touch!

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

I used my Artbooking Cricut Collection and some Black Glitter Paper to cut the spider web. I backed it with plain 'ol tissue paper & some thread tangles...

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

I had to throw in some CUTE Washi from the Jeepers Creepers line..

Choose Happy Blog Hop...

Welcome to this month's SOTM Blog Hop featuring Choose Happy stamp set...

If you've come from Maureen's Blog, you're on the right track...keep hopping 'till you back to where you started!

I gave up making cards for Lent so you'll only be seeing layouts on my blog 'till Easter!!! I did it to challenge myself to get more scrapbooking done as well as cut down on the number of cards I've been hoarding...lol.

Here's a look at my layout...I used one of the frames that comes in the set to random stamp a piece of cardstock with versa mark then embossed the images and sponges with ink...I used Seaside Paper Packet because I love the colors!!!

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

Here's a close up of the embossed frames. the "Me & You" comes from the Artfully Sent Cricut Collection...

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

I also stamped some of the square frames with Cocoa Ink and cut out as an embellishment...the word "memories" comes from one of the zip-strips of the Seaside B&T...

Don't forget...you have until March 31st to get your hands on this HAPPY stamp set...here's a look at it.

Thanks for stopping by!!!

It's now time to hop on over to Stefani's Blog and see what she has to share!

Blowing Kisses with Frosted Designs...

I'm soooo excited!!!

This is my FIRST post as a FROSTED DESIGNS Design Team Member! I'm a member of the Friday Challenges DT and this week's challenge is...

WHAT DIRECTION

I chose to use an arrow overlay as my background...because we all know arrows tell you what DIRECTION to go!

I embellished with some of Frosted Designs wonderful products!

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

Here's a closeup of my watercolor piece and the wood veneers I used from the FD Store...those little hearts are to die for! My daughter was almost 1 and was learning to blow kisses! My husband worked out of town at the time so we were headed to see him for the weekend. I hand wrote "kisses" with an acid-free marker then fussy cut around the letters. I typed up the journalling and printed using this little handy tip.

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

I hope you can see the dimension...something I {{{love}}} to add to all my projects BUT I don't like to put too much so my pages still fit nicely in my Albums

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

I used a date stamp from Heidi Swapp...LOVE that thing but it's gonna take some practice..I'm so used to clear stamps and acrylic blocks...lol

Thank you so much for stopping by and seeing my little corner of the world!

I hope you'll take the time to visit the Frosted Designs Store and see all the goodies they have! And...don't forget to head over to the FD Blog and check out the other DT Members and what they've created for their What Direction Friday Challenge...I promise you will be AMAZED!!!

Snow, Snow, Snow with SOUS...

It's my turn to post over at Stuck on U Sketches...and the Die-Cut Team is bringing you SNOW this challenge!

My entire layout was made from scraps I saved from some of these projects...made this layout come together pretty quick! And...this layout will go with this layout once I add some journalling!

I decided to go with a pretty neutral pallet since my son's coat is so bright...

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

Here are some close-ups...I used Frosted Paper Packet from CTMH (retired)...luckily I stocked up on it because I have a LOT of snow pictures from this year (it doesn't snow very often in West Texas so I tend to take too many photos...lol)...

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

All the "snows" (plus more) were left over from this project...made it really easy...NO CUTTING!

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

I love how HAPPY he is and so glad I was able to capture it on film!

Don't forget to link up your own SNOW CHALLENGE before next Friday!

Thanks for stopping by!

I'm also linking up this layout to the BITTEN BY THE BUG 2 Snowflake Challenge...make sure you head over there and check out the Challenge and enter BOTH the SOUS Challenge AND the Snowflake Challenge!

Get Your Game on with Paper Issues & SOUS...

My son played T-Ball for the first time this year and, as much as I dislike baseball, I actually liked T-Ball.

I was so happy we went ahead and bought the Team Pictures...had such a fun time scrapping these photos. This, I'm thinking, will be an introductory page to a whole bunch of PML-style pages that will hold all of the photos I took at the games! PML (pocket scrapbooking) is the way to go when you have SO MANY photos.

I'm linking up to Paper Issues (Get Your Game On Challenge) and SOUS (Sketch Challenge 11.07).

There's a BUNCH going on in this layout...obviously you have all the baseballs but I also added some Bronze Glittery Baseball Bats using the Brown Glitter Paper from CTMH. I would've added some Red Glitter Paper on the stars or baseballs but I didn't have any.

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

I added dimension by pop-dotting some of the baseballs and the title "Love Baseball" with Thin 3D-Foam Tape

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

I love that his photo package came with a few black & white photos and I love the addition of one of different pose on this page!

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

Look at all that dimension when you have multiple layers on a svg cut!!!

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

I took one of the scraps of B&T used to cut some of the blue stars and used it between the photo and the baseballs...added some of the stars leftover (but used the backside of the B&T) for a contrast.
