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 :)

E is for EASTER You may recall a few months ago, I posted a couple layouts from the baby album I am making for my niece.... well she's now 3 months old and I only finished through 4 months!  I have some work to do..... Today I created an Easter Layout using THIS layout as my inspiration.  The Chantilly paper pack is perfectly girly and springy!  I cut two strips of the green pattern, then sliced it up to make it look like grass.  Using Art Philosophy, I cut out a bunch of different eggs in 1 1/2", 1 3/4" and ...

CTMH-- September Stamp of the Month- Fall Favori

Welcome to the Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for September 2012, featuring Fall Favorites   All artwork on the hop will feature Fall Favorites!  This is a set of 11 stamps and it's really making me want FALL---- NOW!!!  How cute is this set!?  If you have come here from  Susan's Blog y ou are on the right path. For my card today, I used the new Clementine paper pack, which is so versatile!  I cut the tag from Art Philosophy and stamped Fall Favorites in Brown Staz-on ink, then colored the pumpkin and leaves with my new markers.  I found that they don't blend and shade terribly well on Kraft cardstock- but the color showed up.  I added some of my favorite Burlap Ribbon to the card :) Do you think I like pumpkin pie???  Just a little bit ;) The September Stamp of the Month- Fall Favorites is available September 1-30th.  With any $50 purchase, this set is yours for $5....
