CTMH-- Studio J- Same Pattern, Different Layout

I am continuing to use Studio J to create my calendar layouts! One page is my calendar layout, and the other is just a page for my general album. I inadvertently used the same pattern on two different months layouts- but look how changing up the papers can make a huge difference:

February- Left side is the Calendar layout

Animal Cookies papers, added black cardstock.

September: Left side is the Calendar layout
I really wanted to use a "rainbow" of colors for this layout, so I chose Tinkerin'. But on in one photo, Allie's shirt was purple, so I was able to change the color of the paper to match the colors I was looking for (the purple and the red papers below)

Tinkerin Paper

For the last 3 years, I have created scrapbooked 12x12 calendars for both sets of Grandparents as well as for myself. The first 2 have been traditional scrapbook layouts- where I was not able to fully embellish.
NOW- my new and improved calendars created with Studio J are fully embellished and flat!
I have printed out one set of each 2-page layout (keeping the second page for my regular album) AND have the JPEG to print out 2 more copies for the other calendars! SO AWESOME!

~~ Holiday Blog Hop ~~

Welcome to the Paper Secrets Holiday Blog Hop. I made a couple of things to share with you today. I created this lovely paper tree by punching a LOT of 1 1/4" circles of Mistletoe Paper, then used pearl floral pins to secure them in rows to a styrofoam cone. As I neared the top, I had to use some adhesive so that they did not flare out, but sit in the cone shape. At the top, I stamped 3 stars and adhered them to the top of the cone. Supplies: Styrofoam cone Pearl Floral Pins CTMH Mistletoe level 2 paper CTMH Mistletoe Creative Basics paper D1320 Shining Star Stamps I created a second paper tree using instructions from Tracey Mason . I created an accordion flower with a stamped sentiment for my topper on this one.

April Showers Blog Hop

Thanks for joining me for another weekend of Blog Hoppin Fun! If you have come here from Tina's Blog , you are on the right path! Keep on hoppin until the end :) April Showers is our theme, and I went with the "shower" theme and made baby cards for baby showers! I am addicted to making these stacked present cards lately! I first saw one that my friend Jayma made, who found it on Vicki's blog. Recently, I saw a couple cute ones on Haley's blog too. I cut my paper strips at 1.25 tall x 3, 2.25 and 1.5 long. Add a ribbon down the center, or just a bow on top and you're set! I used the Sweet Baby stamp set and Polka Dot Alphabet for my sentiments. Now I'm all set for the next baby shower..... (though I don't know any preggos right now). This design is also great for Birthday Cards too!!!! I made two each of these cards and stamped Birthday sentiments on them :) Supplies: BOY: Miracle Level 2 Sweet Baby...

September Stamp of the Month- Family is Forever

Welcome to the September Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for Family is Forever If you have come here from Judy's Blog , you're on the right path. This month we have 80 amazing artists' blogs for you to visit. This stamp set is beautiful! Lately I have seen this fun and easy marker technique, so I decided to give it a try with the September Stamp of the Month. Using the ShinHan Twin Touch Markers : Leaf Green, Turquoise Blue, Vivid Green and Cerulean Blue Light, I colored diagonal streaks across the middle of my card. Then I used Archival Black Ink to Stamp Family is Forever. I stamped the little hearts in Lagoon ink and added some Blue and Green Sparkles to the bottom. I used the Die Cut Card , so I added a piece of the Lagoon Paper Fundamentals to the inside of the card. The September Stamp of the Month is available from September 1-30. It is only $5 with a $50 purchase on my webs...
