Last week I shared with you a couple of Christmas Cards that I created with White Pines Papers , White Pines Picture My Life Cards and Paper Fundamentals .   Today I want to share with you another of the cards we created! For this NOEL card, I took the Picture My Life Card and trimmed it down a little.  I used the Ruby Paper Fundamentals paper, and cut a bow using Cricut Artiste .  The white background paper is embossed with the Cascading Stars Folder.    Joy! This card was created similar to the "Peace" card I shared last week.  I cut the Picture My Life Card to fit, and cut some of the borders from other cards as accents.  I used the New England Ivy Paper Fundamentals for the background.  I added Silver Shimmer Trim and sparkles to finish the card off. Picture My Life cards are not just for scrapbooking, they make great cards too!  

Has school started where you are???  You MUST check out the newest Picture My Life Kits????   Chalk It Up is for sure my favorite of the 5 newest kits in the Annual Expressions Idea Book!   Take a look at some of the cards you'll find in this kit!  AMAZING chalkboard look, tons of SCHOOL cards.  SO MUCH FUN!   The kids are back in school, so its time to get SCRAPPIN!!!!!

This week's challenge over at Heart2Heart is using Picture My Life .  Now typically, you would use the Picture My Life program as intended- for quick and easy album pages.  (See this VIDEO ) But did you know that there are many other uses for them??   You can use them as accents or journaling boxes on your traditional scrapbook layouts, like mine here. I used the Chantilly Picture My Life cards as accents and title to my layout.  This layout features Lollydoodle Papers, an overlay cut from Artbooking , Pink Glitter paper, rolled flowers cut from Art Philosophy and Aqua Dots.   True to form, this layout came together pretty quickly, thanks to the Picture my Life cards :) Another idea, is to use our Picture My Life Cards on greeting cards- check some out HERE .  Check back tomorrow for some more ideas on how you can use Picture My Life cards.  

This week at Heart2Heart Challenges , we are starting with a new group of Design Team members.  I am proud to be continuing on the Design Team for another term :) The theme this week is "Up, up and away".  Focus on something up in the air (plane, helicopter, hot air balloon, butterfly, bird, etc.) For this week's challenge, I decided to go through my Picture My Life Skylark kit and pull out my favorite cards with birds & butterflies on them.  I then turned them into greeting cards :) In addition to the Picture My Life cards , I used the Skylark Assortment , Silver Shimmer Trim, Lagoon Zipper Lace, Burlap Ribbon , Sparkles Flourishes, White Enamel Shapes , Quatrefoil Embossing Folder,   Chevron Embossing Folder , Dots Embossing folder & Striped Embossing Folder.  I stamped various words using the July Stamp of the Month- Circus Alphabet , and used the Dreamer stamp set as well.

When Close To My Heart first came out with the Picture My Life kits, they were an instant hit!  I have had a few requests for cards for Disney and cards for the Holidays.  Luckily, with CTMH's Studio J, digital online scrapbooking, I was able to create my own Project Life type cards.  These print as photos, single sided, in fabulous archival quality!
