The Quilted Scrapper

I have decided to take a break from scrapping our Disney vacation. I am hoping to work my way through 2013 (yes I am that far behind) in the next few months. However, I had these pictures from 2014 printed so decided to use the retired Pathfinding paper pack to create this two page layout. I also used the Flock Together stamp set and the Cricut Flower Market Cartridge for embellishments.

I really like the Close to My Heart's Workshops on the Go . Everything you need to create two to three beautiful two page layouts. Included is all the paper you need, a stamp set and embellishments. The best part is the cost, only $29.95.  This Fall I completed the Pathfinding Workshop on the Go.  The first two layouts were created with directions from the kit: The third layout I created adding two additional pieces of Chocolate cardstock. I used Make it from the Heart Vol. 1 to get the idea for the layout. I also added a small piece of Chocolate fundamental paper  and used my Cricut and Artise Cartridge  to create the rosette.   All three layouts use Goldrush, Olive and Chocolate Ink. You can order all supplies here .

Life is finally starting to slow down for me now that grad school ends in 4 days!!! I am working on cards this week for the fabulous staff I have worked with. For these 2 cards I used Close to My Heart Pathfinding  along with the November Stamp of the Month "It's the Little Things". Here are the cards: For this card I used the November Stamp of the Month along with the sentiment stamps that came with the CTMH Artfully Sent Cartridge. I used Olive, Barn Red, Goldrush, Lagoon and Glacier Ink.    For this great card I used the new CTMH Cricut Cartridge, Artfully Sent . I cut everything at 4". I also added some Paper Fundamentals Basic  and brown glitter paper. The tree is from the Artbooking Cartridge cut at 3 1/2". I love how it turned out and is masculine enough to use for my school's principal. 

Close to My Heart has an amazing special every month. You can get a $17.95 stamp set for only $5 with any $50 purchase. This is an amazing opportunity to get a unique stamp set that is only available for 30/31 days. This month's stamp set has a lot of versatility. The first project I created with this stamp set was an anniversary card for my 13th wedding anniversary. I used the Pathfinding paper pack, Cocoa ink and Ruby Red ink. All supplies can be purchased here .

Today marks the beginning of the new Annual Inspirations from Close to My Heart. I LOVE everything about it. From the nine new paper packs, to the numerous new Picture My Life kits, easy pre-cut card kits and numerous treat bags and more. One special Close to My Heart has every month is a stamp of the month. This stamp set is available for $5 with any $50 purchase. August is one of my favorite's this time around! I have only played with the stamp set a few times but so far I have made this card:   To make this card I used the August Stamp of the Month, the new Pathfinding  paper pack,  Sparkles Brown & Tan Assortment  and cocoa ink. I also used our new fabulous alcohol markers from ShinHan . My coloring still needs work but I love the card.  I also created a two-page layout using Scaredy Cat :   For the left page I used the masking tape technique and 4 inks. To create the technique you use painters tape and ink p...
