Countdown to Spring/Summer Idea Book- Ivy Lane

The 2014 Spring/Summer Idea Book goes live in almost a week!!!  

In the upcoming week, I will continue to feature one of my favorite new products from the Idea Book!  I hope you'll stop in every day to see the fun new stuff!!!

MY REFLECTIONS PAPER PACKS

Each new Idea Book, CTMH releases at least 6 new paper packs.  The 7 new ones in this Idea Book are A-MAZING! 

 Today let's talk about IVY LANE!  I just love the patterns and colors in this paper pack.  I think it's perfect for Valentines day, BUT it's pretty versatile as well. 

I created this layout for my team swap.  I actually used Cricut Craft Room for the first time on this one as well (to cut the title and save paper).   I used the Ivy Lane Workshop on the Go Kit, Pink Glitter Paper and the new Paper Fundamentals Basics Assortment.  WOW, those are some AWESOME new papers right there!  The Pink Glitter Paper- of course I LOVE!  The Paper Fundamentals are incredible-- 20 double sided sheets with the same design on both sides.  One side has a glossy resist pattern, while the other side repeats the pattern in white.  SO COOL!  I also used the new Purple Glitter Gems and Metallic Bakers Twine.  I cut an overlay from Artbooking for my layout as well. 






I also created a card for my team swap.  I used a pattern from Make it From your Heart Vol 2.  The stamp set used here is a new one: Mother's Day.  How awesome is this sentiment?!?!?!  Again I used the Pink Glitter Paper (this might become an obsession) and Metallic Bakers Twine.  

Here is the Ivy Lane Paper Pack:


 And some additional artwork:




Don't forget to come back tomorrow for more :)

CTMH- Washi Tape Card

Do you WASHI???   Washi Tape is one of the new and super trendy products being used.  I'm not afraid to jump on the bandwagon :)  CTMH now has a Slate Polka-Dot Washi Tape (and I HOPE there are lots more to come!!!)  I also have picked up a couple others at Michaels recently. This weeks Color My Heart Color Dare is JUNIPER.  I decided to use Juniper as the accent color for my card today. I used the black banner stamp set from Artiste Kudos , CTMH's Slate Washi Tape , CTMH's Silver Shimmer Trim and a black arrow washi tape.  The sentiment is from Artiste Birthday , stamped in Juniper, then popped on foam tape. A simple card like this, called for some dressing up of the inside too.  I stamped Happy Birthday from Perfect Fit Birthday and added some Slate Washi Tape to the bottom. Head over to Color My Heart to check out the other color dare entries :)

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....
