CTMH Wanderful Disney

I love our new Wanderful paper collection. It's perfect for vacations and so much more. I decided to use it for some random photos our the World Showcase in Disney's Epcot. This was part of last months Scrap Club if you're not a member yet you can get all the details on the Scrap Club link at the top of my blog.

I created the title with the Wanderful Workshop on the Go stamp set. I decided to create a cluster and shelf for my focal photo to sit on. By stamping your image multiple times with different colors of ink and paper piecing them back together using pop dots you can create some great embellishments cheap. The zip strip, washi, and phrase stamped below the photo creates a great shelf for the photo to rest and the embellishments a place to be anchored to. 

sorry for the blurry picture but hopefully you can see adding a few stamped images, washi, and embellishments to preprinted paper can added even more wow to a page.

If you've never looked at the Workshop on the Gos they come with all the paper, cardstock, embellishments, and exclusive stamp set along with a full cutting and assembly guide for two layouts for only $24.95  I always have lots of product left to create more layouts.

CTMH Pathfinding Workshop on the Go

Like last week this week we're talking about Pathfinding and Workshops on the Go. Not only do we have a card workshop but we also have a Layout WOTG.

This is just one of the two layouts that you'll create with the kit. The main layout features the Artbooking cartridge but if you don't have it don't worry we show you an alternative way to complete the layout. The exclusive stamp set that comes with it is designed large enough to use for titles on your pages; one of the features I love!!

CTMH Celebrate Card

Today is my first post for the Color My Heart Color Dare Design Team. We were given the color palette Sorbet, Cranberry, Pacifica, Lagoon, & Olive.

I was really challenged in the beginning because this seemed like a lot more colors than I'm used to but i knew I wanted to include the new Lagoon Paper bags. They also come in Slate, Ruby, and Honey colored. I decided to think outside of the box and use it as a holder for a card.

I started with the bag first since I didn't really know what I wanted to do with the card. I went through my stash and found everything I could that fit in the color scheme. The fabric caught my eye and I decided I wanted to create a flower and then a tag. The flower was made with four circles of fabric folded into quarters then I added a resin flower to the center. I cut the tag from the Cricut Artiste cartridge in sorbet and White Daisy, stamped the sentiment and then pop dotted it up onto the bag. I used some olive bakers twine to tie through it and added extra texture and dimension.

For the card I stamped the image in chocolate and then colored it in with a blending pen and my ink pads. The diamond border was stamped with a rock and roll technique using lagoon and pacifica ink. I double matted it with olive and lagoon card stock and adhered one of the CTMH clips to the top so you could easily pull it from the bag.

I hope you'll join the Color My Heart Color Dare #111 with your own project. Link it up over on the Color My Heart blog.

CTMH Pathfinding Card Workshop on the Go

This months feature is all about the Pathfinding collection and it wouldn't be complete without talking about the new Card Workshop on the Go kits. If you don't have time to go to workshops or there aren't any around you then the WOTG are perfect. They include everything you need besides the ink to complete fabulous projects.

Todays is all about cards. You get all the supplies to create 15 cards, 3 of each design. BUT let me tell you there's enough paper and product here to complete about 30+ more cards than the 15 so add some extra card bases in to your order.

How fab is that?

Share a Coke and a Smile

Today I'm back with my 2nd Design Team post for Nuts About Sketches. This was a double page sketch but I had these photos that were perfect so I just used one of the pages.

The sketch had all sizes of arrows  that I loved so I played with that and added CTMH Arrow wash tape going down between the two background papers then used various arrows cut from the Artiste Cartridge and stamped with sentiments, cork arrows, sticker arrows from simple stories with words already printed on them. I really like how it all came together so well even using multiple lines of product.  I even created the title with four different alphas from four different companies.

CTMH Arrow wash

CTMH Cricut Artiste

CTMH B1430 Happiness Lives Here stamp set

CTMH B1436 Photogenic stamp set

Simple Stories Alpha & stickers

Enamel dots

This sketch was a lot of fun to play with and I'll be using it again for a double layout. I'm really pleased with how this layout turned out but I'm not sure if it's the photos or the layout I like most. LOL

I hope you'll try the layout and share with me here or on my Facebook page, facebook.com/MyScrappyIdeas
