Does Ice Cream Make You Happy?

I wanted to have fun with the Taste of Summer paper packet one more time and give a preview of the June Stamp of the Month.  It is yours for $5 with a $50 purchase from my website during the month of June. 

I'm using Chocolate ink for the sentiment and some Purple glitter gems for fun.

Pucker Up!

The vibrant colors of the Taste of Summer paper from Close To My Heart is so fun!  It really puts me in the mood for summer.  If you love it too, be sure to get it ordered from my website before the end of the month. 

Today I'm using the paper packet and the coordinating stamp set to stamp the sentiment in Topiary ink and Canary ink for the lemons.

Angels Among Us

Today I have a banner created for my Mom's Catholic Daughters annual conference.  The banner and letter were cut using the Close To My Heart Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge.  This is CTMH's first cricut collection.  I seem to find myself going back to it time and time again.

The paper of the day is Confetti Wishes.  My Mom requested there be a lot of purple and this paper packet felt perfect.  Confetti Wishes would be also perfect for birthday cards or birthday scrapbook layouts.

Other fun CTMH goodies I used to add embellishments:
Purple Shimmer Trim
Purple Glitter Gems
Sparkles Clear Flourishes

 

 

Happy Mother's Day!

Here is a fun Mother's Day card using the Flowers For Mom stamp set that coordinates with the Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge.  (A quick tip! Be sure to use the Real Dial Size when cutting the coordinating image for the sentiment.)  The sentiment is stamped using the Pear exclusive ink pad and some of the small sparkles from the Sparkles Assortment were added to the center of a few of the flowers.

I cut a 4 inch square using the Background and Textured paper in the Brushed Paperpacket from Close To My Heart.  I then cut eat of those at a diagonal two times to get a triangle for each corner.  One of the many things I love about the B&T paper from CTMH is that it's double sided and their colors coordinate.  The sentiment fit perfectly in the middle.  I'm so happy with how with card turned out.

Taste of Summer Signs

May is National Scrapbooking Month and Close To My Heart has a special paper pack to celebrate!  I'm using Taste of Summer for the next couple signs for my little lady.  It's so hard for me to believe she already needed her 7 month sign!  I loved the Taste of Summer paper packet so much that I went ahead and put together the 8 month sign at the same time.

I'm using the CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge for the 7 and 8.  The ruby clothespin is from the Ruby Mini Medleys embellishment packet.  I also used some red shimmer trip and our 3-D foam tape to pop up the red and strawberry paper to add some dimension.

I love the color diversity with the papers in Taste of Summer!  The clip on the top left is from the Smoothie Mini Medley and the washi tape is called smoothie as well.  A few flamingo dots were added to give a little extra embellishment. 

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.
