CTMH--- Christmas Layouts - Traditional & Studio J

I am completely finished scrapbooking Christmas 2010!!!  YES, this past Christmas!

HOW??? You ask?

Well, first of all, I really don't like scrapping Christmas.  There are a few "events", tons of pictures, lots of things to journal about...... I think really the problem is that by the time I get to it mid-year, I am not that into it and have forgotten the memories :(

SO, I decided (after some inspiration from Erica and Barbra) that I would just go ahead and do it now, while its fresh.  AND thanks to Studio J, I was able to get the bulk of it done FAST! What I did was go through the Mistletoe and Wings Workshop Kits and decided which pictures would go in those.  Then I chose some of my favorite pictures to scrap traditionally as well.  Then I started uploading all the rest into Studio J! 

Here we go (part 1)


Studio J- Mistletoe Kit




Traditional- Mistletoe, All the Best

Traditional- Wings Workshop Kit- main layout.  Bohemian Alpha, Wings Stamps

Studio J- Everlasting

Studio J- Elegant Bouquet
I thought the reds and greens in this kit worked perfect!

 Traditional- Jingle
My daughter put lipstick all over her face, broke the lipstick then tracked it all over my mom's ivory carpet on Christmas Eve. 

 Traditional- Mistletoe Kit- Bonus layout

 Traditional- Mistletoe Kit- main layout.  Holiday Commentary, Chocolate Large Alpha, I Believe, All the Best

You can still get a Mistletoe Kit and a Wings Workshop Kit by shopping HERE!!!!  Instructions and supplies included to create the beautiful layouts you saw here. 

I will share the rest of the layouts in a couple days!

Oh, these l/o's are so beautiful! I love how you used different paper packs - all with similar color tones, though - to scrap your Christmas 2010 photos! I usually just use one paper pack for all pics of same event. Fun. And, the mix of Studio J and traditional layouts together is fantastic! Thanks for sharing!

~*~ 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.   Supplies: Styrofoam Cone CTMH Mistletoe Level 2 papers K& Co paper D1380 Just for the Holidays Stamps I created a total of four paper trees to sit upon my mantel!  The "subway art" was a free printable from eighteen25 ....

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...
