Oct 8th Scrap class

    This October layout is Halloween based. It features our Paper pack Moonlight, our awesome chipboard thickness diminsional elements($4.95)- Believe it or not there will be NO STAMPING on this layout. I can't believe it myself. I always stamp something.
   The class is scheduled on Monday Oct 8th at 7PM at our place. It should only be a half hour long. The new diminsional elements make this page come together very quickly. The cost is $8. If you could bring your own a dhesive it would be helpful.You will have enough diminsional elements to do another layout on your own. Please RSVP if planning on attending
   I went to Florida this past weekend and put this class together very quickly. I had enough diminsional elements to do a second page using the same paper pack- Moonlight($9.95). Here it is!!!

     
      If you want the complete paperpack so that you can finish your own layout. Just let me know. I can order it in advance or at class time.

    I had time to play recently with Close to my Heart Christmas Paper and embellishments and here is what I did. This idea came from Lisa Stenz- she is another consultant and did this for Convention. It uses 1/3 of the Pear and Partridge paper pack, Holiday Dimensional elements($5.95), Pear and Partridge glitter rub-ons, new Rosette ribbon(few cents), and a printers tray($20). Costly but would make a great Christmas gift.

     Close to my Heart has released a new cricut cartridge Artiste. This one does alot of 3D projects. The pumpkin is an example from this new cartridge.

   
     This is a cute hibiscus
flowered gift box with the new cricut. The paper is dark- so it's a little dark.

   

This is a 3D project of a strawberry that I cut

out and then ran thru the embossing folder to give it some texture. The possibilities are endless. 

This Pumpkin box is also a project from the Artiste cricut project. Fall is around the corner.

      This is our new Close to my Heart-- Workshop on the Go Advent Calendar Kit. This festive holiday countdown uses a heavy duty chipboard for the cubby. The drawers are made of cardstock using the Artiste cartridge. This project compliments our Pear and Partridge papers

CTMH Cricut Ornaments and Gift Toppers

Beverly Tiemann did this cute video showing you how to use the CTMH cricut to cut shapes, stamp in them and make some awesome ornaments and gift toppers- gotta watch this one!!!!!

  July has been such a busy month for me-- Family reunion- it was so nice to have all my children and grandchildren together. We had family photos taken that turned out fabulous. Can't wait to scrapbook them. But now that summer is winding down somewhat, I'm ready to start scrappin again.

Deb- Close to my Heart Consultant

    This will be my June layout. My upline Susan Tomaino had a crop day for consultants a few months ago, and this is one of her projects. I loved it. So this will be the layout I will use for my workshop. Summer has already started. Most kids in the area are out of school and hot weather is already here. The 4th of July will be here before we know it.

     This class will be offered Friday June 22 at 7PM. The cost is $7. The layout will come together really quickly. I hope to have a cute gift/treat bag that we can make also. I'll work on that, and post it as soon as it's completed.

    Please RSVP that you coming by June 15th to scrappy55@msn.com. Snacks will be provided. Hope to see you there.
