Here is some more artwork using the Stella papers.
I made this layout with the Magic book to use up some scraps from the Stella Paper Packet. I added the Stella Complements Canvas Shapes, Colonial White ribbon, and the Opaques Mocha Adhesive Gems to create a quick layout.
Supplies used: Wooden letters purchased at Hobby Lobby, CTMH Sophia Paper Pack, CTMH Sophia My Stickease, CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge, Mod Podge, CTMH Sparkles, CTMH Hollyhock & White Daisy cardstock, CTMH Stardust Glitter Glitz, CTMH Hollyhock Stitched Ribbon, and CTMH Sparkle Flourishes.
This month’s challenge at Scrap Our Stash is to LEAP and you can interpret that however you like. For me, I have so many projects that I want to do but never have the time. So I decided to just leap into one of these and get it done! I purchased these letters at least 2 years ago for my scrapbook room with good intentions and never did anything with them. I am very pleased with how they turned out and I’m excited to have new decor to add to my room. I covered the letters first with the Sophia papers using Mod Podge, then added the embellishments. All the diecuts are cut from the Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge. I added Glitter Glitz randomly to the flowers to give them a more real feel.
When I went to hang the letters, they didn’t fit exactly where I wanted them (centered over my dry erase board) so I did the same thing I think of when I’m doing a scrapbook page. I offset them instead of doing a straight line. I thought they fit that way but when I went to actually hang them, they didn’t. But they’re hung now and it’s done. I’m just going to try to not let it bother me that they are not centered.
The backs of the letters were flat and didn’t have anything to hang them. I used Command Picture Hanging Strips. They seem like they will hold now and the letters are not that heavy. I’ll update if they fall down. 
I was planning on showing you some more artwork using Stella today but I was busy making this instead. It is a gift for my husband’s grandma who is recovering from surgery. Shhh! I haven’t delivered it yet! I found the vase and pebbles at the Dollar Tree. I used pearl-tipped pins from Michael’s and attached the flowers to a foam ball that sets on top of the vase. I did go through more than one roll of glue dots (used to hold the flowers together). I’d say if you don’t count the time it involves it’s equal to a vase of real flowers except this will last forever. And it was more fun too.
The flowers are cut using the CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge. I love the variety and am so glad I tried them all out. This is a sample of 5 out of the 6 flowers you can cut from this cartridge. I have one of those new (non-sticky) Cricut mats and the 6th flower just wasn’t cutting well. I’m guessing the ball is about 4″, the vase is about 6″ tall, and I cut all the flowers at 3 inches. There’s 60-70 flowers total. I’ve got some left over and I’m thinking of making a card to go with it. Maybe that can be tomorrow’s project.

Bonus Project:
Do your kids ever complain that they are bored and have nothing to do? Well, we made this Bored Box to solve that problem. It is filled with things that we came up with that they can do when they are bored. They just pull one out of the box and they’ve got something to do. We came up with a variety of things including look at scrapbooks, read a book, watch a movie, play outside, draw a picture, play piano, fix your hair, put a puzzle together, paint your nails, etc. I have two preteen girls so this is what works for them. You can customize it to suit your children’s ages and what they are interested in. This is originally designed to be a bucket list box but you can really make it into whatever you want (photo box, learning tool, etc.).

Here are my pages:
I used these layouts as one-pagers instead of two-pagers. When I first got the new idea book I was disappointed that I didn’t like this workshop better, but now that I’ve done it I love the pages and all the bling on them.
