I created a large centerpiece to be used as a giveaway for a Vendor Show I have tomorrow. I used the pumpkin on page 71 (accent 1) and fit to page. I cut out a third pumpkin to give it more dimension. I then used the 3D shift feature on the same page to cut 3 leaves. They are 5", 4 1/2" and 4". I then sanded the edges of them with a CTMH sanding block. Finally, I used a rose from the Art Ph

Welcome to the Roxybonds Scrappers Team Blog Hop! We will be featuring artwork from the Moonlight Paper Pack . If you have come here from Cat's Blog , then you are on the right path.  Today I have created four layouts using the Moonlight Workshop on the Go.  Moonlight is so versatile. It can be used for Fall, Halloween or any pictures you have or will be taking this year. I started with the Workshop on The Go  and created the two layouts suggested and then added some additional cardstock (2 smokey plum and 2 black) and created two more layouts.     These are the two extra layouts that I will finish embellishing once I have pictures.     We will be creating all four of these layouts on Tuesday October 30th from 6:00-9:00 for $35 if you are interested in joining us. You will go home with 4 double layouts, a great stamp set, extra paper and embellishments. RSVP today if interested at cardsbystephanie@gmail.com Check out Denise's blog for

As soon as the new Close to My Heart Idea Book came out over the summer I knew I had to have the new canvas journal. However, I became stumped with how to decorate it. Thanks to pintrest though I soon discovered a great way to decorate canvas at this fabulous blog More Than Photography  and found a great technique that I just had to try. Her directions are excellent and the only thing I would add is to use lots of modge podge. Part of my tree did not adhere, but with some added embellishments it turned out. I love journals and the idea of journaling and gave this to our high school babysitter.
