ONE-derful 1st Birthday Layout

Supplies used: My Mind’s Eye Garden Party paper and embellishments, CTMH 3D Foam Tape, CTMH Art Philosophy cartridge, CTMH cardstock (Colonial White, Cocoa, & Twilight), and CTMH Mocha Opaque Pearl Gems.  Title from The Perfect Title.

I used this sketch from Even More Scrapping:

Stamp Sunday #43: Affection

C1441 Affection

Oh, I love-love-love how this layout turned out!  I used this sketch from  Sketch Support.  All products are Close to My Heart.  I used the retired Sweetheart papers with a Cotton Candy cardstock background.  For the border I cut 2″ scalloped borders with the Art Philosophy cartridge, cut them in half and lined them up along the striped paper.  The title is from The Perfect Title and also cut from the Art Philosophy cartridge.  It took a little extra time to cut all the hearts from the Affection stamp set (stamped with first- and second-generation Cotton Candy ink) and attach with 3D foam tape, but it was well worth it!  Grey sparkles were the finishing touch.

I chose the little booties on page 63 of the Artiste handbook for my 3D project.  This was one of the first images that stuck out for me when I was browsing the new book with all the fun projects this cartridge has to offer.  They remind me of some cute little shoes that my daughter has and these will hang in her room.  I had a hard time deciding how to embellish these because I wanted to keep them simple.  I chose the Bitty Pearls and Color-Ready Ribbon.  I thought about adding some of the Rosette Ribbon but didn’t have any at the time and thought they looked fine how they were.  So cute!

Fall/Thanksgiving Layout

I have a Thanksgiving layout to share with you today.

Supplies used are all Close to My Heart: Art Philosophy Cricut Collection, Olivia Paper Packet (retired), Bronze Glitter Glitz, Mini-Medley Accents Antiqued Gold, Artiste Cricut cartridge, Gold Metallics Marker, and inks (Autumn Terracotta, Olive, & Cocoa).

To get the different colors on the leaves, I first inked in Autumn Terracotta, then using sponge daubers added Olive and Cocoa before stamping.  I love the look!   All the stamps I used are from the Seasons stamp set which is included in the Art Philosophy Collection.  The title is cut from the Artiste cartridge.
