Dream Pop & Canvas

It's been a BUSY BUSY week!  It always amazes me how BUSY things get in the spring time...

I did, however, have a chance to spend some serious time getting crafty this weekend!  I pulled out the upcoming National Scrapbook Day special- DREAM POP and got to work!


First of all- this paper pack is SOOOOO COOOOOL!  Look at the colors!  They're ALL NEW and exclusive to this paper pack (so far--- never know what's coming in the next Idea Book!)  The patterns are funky, bright, trendy and CUTE!  The cardstock is UV- basically it has a pattern that is embossed onto it.  Here's what's SUPER COOL:  when you spend $35 in May- you get DREAM POP for only $10!  wooohooo!

I plan to have an AWESOME Card Workshop AND Scrapbook Workshop available using this paper pack--- give me a couple weeks! 

On to my creations---- I have had this 6x6 canvas sitting around for a little while and I got some inspiration from a couple that I've seen lately.  Plus, I decided I had the perfect picture for it :) :)
I used the Honeycomb stamp set to create the background, stamping the out line image in Slate, using our Pigment Ink (LOVE these!). I stamped one of the honeycomb patterns in Whisper a couple times right on the canvas too.  Then I stamped a few more of the honeycomb patterns onto paper and trimmed.  I also used the Grey Cardstock from Dream Pop and the Once Upon A Princess Cricut Cartridge to cut out a couple more honeycombs.  The photo mat is the Mint Cardstock from Dream Pop.  I cut one more honeycomb and stamped it with a sentiment from the 2011 convention Stamp set- "If you can dream it, you can do it" - Walt Disney.  Finally I cut some banners from Art Philosophy and stamped 2013 on them.  I adhered all the paper to the canvas with Liquid Glass.  I used a piece of slate ribbon to hang the canvas in my Office!







This canvas is hanging next to my CTMH business one (from Jewel Kade).  I think I'm going to make a couple more to surround it :)

~*~ 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...
