Happy Mother's Day



Welcome to our April Art Philosophy/Artiste Blog Hop! As you know, both the Artiste and the Art Philosophy cartridges are available exclusively through a Close to My Heart consultant. If you don't already have a Consultant that you are currently working with, please contact one the Consultants in our hop with any questions you have!

If you have just hopped onto my blog, please start at the beginning at Lucy's blog – Love 2Create. If you came from Jennifer ~ 4 Hearts Scrapbooking then you are in the right place!

Our challenge this month features not only one of these amazing cartridges but we also have a Mother's Day theme since Mother's Day is less than a month away.  I decided to create a layout of a Mother's Day outing in 2010. Here is what I came up with:



I used the following Close to My Heart supplies:

  • Make it From the Heart Vol. 1-pattern 9
  • Surf's Up paper pack
  • Surf's Up Assortment
  • Surf's Up Stickease Assortment
  • Cocoa Ink
  • Indian Corn Blue Cardstock
  • Color Ready Canvas Alphabet
  • Art Philosophy Cartridge (I used square 3 at 9" and 3" to create the two squares)

All items I used are available for purchase on my website and if you "join" my Mystery Hostess Gathering you could win $25 in free Close to My Heart products.

Here is the complete lineup in case you get lost along the way:

1.Lucy ~ Love 2 Create
2.Theodora ~ Celebrate Crafts
3.Wendy ~ My Scrapbooking Blog
4.Jennifer ~ 4 Hearts Scrapbooking
6.Stephanie Feist-YOU ARE HERE!

Thanks for hopping along with us - we hope we were able to inspire you in creating your own Mother's Day projects!

Art Philosophy Blog Hop-Teacher Appreciation Gifts

Welcome to the 7th stop on your Art Philosophy Blog Hop Adventure. If you are here from Connie's Crafty Closet  then you are in the right place, if not, please go and start from the beginning at http:// www.creatingwithcourtney.blogsp ot.com . Here is the Teacher Appreciation Gifts I created with my Art Philosophy Cartridge: The Post it Note Holder is made from an acrylic frame and I used Typeset along with the stamp set "Notice the Details". I left the card blank thinking it would be a great place for the student to write a note. Candy Candy Bar Wrapper (minus the candy bar!) also uses Typeset paper and "A Little Thanks" Stamp Set. Finally, there is a 3x3 card using Typeset and a CTMH wooden button. This will also be used as part of a workshop on Tuesday May 8th from 6:30-8:30. We will also be creating a card set. Next visit Erin at http:// www.imcreaterin.blogspot.ca  to see her wonderful creation. If after visiting all the blogs and decidin

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
