LOVE YA SILLY!


 This is THE cutest stamp set ever!!! I LOVE it!! I just think the sentiments are perfect!



I didn't want to showcase the obvious, Valentines, so I decided to create some sweet layouts using these little devils! Using the Heartstrings paper pack and some coordinating cardstock, I was able to create two adorable layouts! For this one, I used cranberry, black and lagoon for my favorite lil boy monster!!

I gave them some personality using google eyes!! Love them!!



And for my sweet lil girl monsters, I used hollyhock, lagoon and slate to soften it up a bit!


Contact me to schedule a class to create these great pages for your lil' monsters!!

Ready to Play HOPSCOTCH?

 Hopscotch is one of the new paper lines found in the Close to My Heart Seasonal Expressions catalog. And it is fresh and FUN! As January can be a bit drab and dreary for those of us that are not fans of winter, I decided to brighten things up a bit!! We will be playing with the Hopscotch papers and FLIP FLAPS!!! For those of you that have never used a FLIP FLAP, you are going to LOVE them!!
This layout, "FUN DAY", accents the bright and bold colors in this paper pack. 
You will do some embossing with the CHEVRON embossing folder.

 
You will add FLIP FLAPS to create additional photo space without taking away from your creative design!


Then we will shift to the softer side of this gorgeous paper pack! 
This layout, "LIFE IS BETTER WHEN YOUR LAUGHING", features cuts from the Artbooking CRICUT cartridge. 

The Hopscotch sticker compliments are a quick and easy way to embellish this layout!

The D-size stamp set found in the Workshop on the Go allows for the perfect finishing touches!
And....do you see the FLIP FLAP here?

Here it is!!! 

As always, I have assembled several different kits for you to choose from. Regardless of the kit you choose, you will be able to complete the layouts. Your layouts may vary slightly depending on which kit you choose. If you are completing these as part of a class, all stamping and techniques will be done in the beginning so that you all have access to stamps and inks.
