Layout Challenge: #19/20 of 210
These are the layouts for the Topstitch Workshop. If you are local and would like to attend, please contact me by February 19, 2010 to place your order. Pages will be completed on March 26.
Welcome back to my blog in case you tried within the last day and were unable to bring it up. It has been technically difficulties beyond my control and I am hoping things are back to normal. Here is what I have had waiting for you:
Products used are all CTMH: Caboodle Workshop on the Go Basic Kit (includes Caboodle Level 2 Paper Packet, stamp set, and Dimensional Elements – Frames), Colonial White cardstock, Friendship Alphabet Large stamp set, Friendship Alphabet Small stamp set, Hodgepodge Alphabet stamp set, Tiny Typewriter Alphabet stamp set, Dimensional Elements Framed Fun, inks (Sorbet, Sweet Leaf, Crystal Blue), Tiny Tabs, silver brads, and Sweet Leaf Ribbon Rounds Collection.
These cards and pages were made using the Caboodle Workshop on the Go kit. These kits are so fun to do! You can chose to make the cards or the scrapbook layouts or both! To make both you may need to add additional cardstock. For this kit specifically, I added 4 sheets of 8 1/2 x 11 paper for my card bases. With the 4 extra sheets and by substituting some of the papers within the kit I was able to make 4 scrapbook pages and 12 cards using the workshop guide and I had paper left over! The kit is designed to make two 2-page layouts but made mine into four 1-page layouts. Check back later today for another post where I will show you what I have created with the rest of the Caboodle Paper Pack in the CTMH New Product Blog Hop!
I will be hosting this workshop in February. If you are local and would like to participate you can contact me through the About Me link on the top of this page. If you are not local, you can still contact me to purchase the kit.
I am now at 9 of 210 completed layouts for the year.
This layout was based on the Stardust WOTG. Products used are CTMH Stardust paper, CTMH photo anchors, unknown brads & eyelets, My Mind’s Eye All Star title, CTMH Wishing Star stamp set and Orange ink.
I hope you had a great Labor Day weekend. I know I sure did! I don’t have much time to scrap this week but I was able to get this layout done today. I used Liquid Glass to apply the fiber around the edges of the flower. For the center and the swirl I twisted two different fibers together and again applied with the Liquid Glass.
Products used: Rhonna Farrer paper, CTMH Just Bloom flowers, CTHM Sweet Leaf ink, CTMH Liquid Glass, Cricut Lyrical Letters cartridge, and fiber from my stash.
Welcome to another Close to My Heart blog hop! Along this hop you will be visiting 29 very talanted CTMH Consultants as they give you a sneak peak of some of the new products available in the CTMH Fall/Winter 2009 Idea Book as well as a great variety of ideas for using those products and more! New products will be available starting September 1st!
I have been wanting to do a book like this for my daughter who is 10. This new album was just the push I needed to get it done! If you notice on the front cover one of the flower centers looks like it has a little something extra – that’s because it does. I really like these new spiral brads and just added a second spiral to give it more emphasis. I used liquid glass on all the numbers and letters. It really brightened the stamping. With doing so much at once I noticed two things: 1. I didn’t have one single bubble! and 2. that’s a lot of squeezing and my hand is really sore! I inked around all the edges when I was finished. It helps covers the flaws and really added a nice finishing touch. One thing I am going to go back and do is use my Made with Love stamp set to add a stamp to the back that will be perfect for this project.
Products used are all CTMH: My Creations All-Sorts Mini Album, Sweet Home Level 2 Paper Packet, Just Blooms White Daisy Variety Pack Paper Flowers, Mini-Medley Accents Collection (Pewter), Liquid Glass, Rustic Alphabet & Rustic Numbers stamp sets, Soft Set Eyelet Tool & Soft Set Eyelets (Chocolate), Dimensional Elements Framed Fun, Foam Tool (to apply ink), Connection Club Reward Adhesive-Backed Pearls, Buttercup Collection Ribbon Rounds, and Garnet ink.
