May Close to my Heart Scrapbooking Class
 
Instead of doing a traditional Mother's day workshop we will be assembling a boys layout using the new Later Sk8r paper pack and a new stamp set called Fast and Furious.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This class will be held on May 13th at 6:30. This is a date change from my normal monthly class(May 6) because my down line is having a class that night that I may attend. Please bring your own adhesive. The cost for this layout is $10, but you will go home with the remainder of the Licorice Opaque Adhesive gems that you don't use on the project. I used the Mocha gems because they were handy but the Licorice match the paper so much better. See the pic below. All the gears and wheels have at least one gem also. 
 
 
Please RSVP by MAY 1st so I can get the order in for the gems so I have enough for everyone. If you bring a guest you both get a gift but they must be RSVP'd also. Sure hope you can make it to the class. Looking forward to seeing you there. As always there will be a snack, refreshments, along with chocolate. We usually have a few giveaways. If you need directions please email me or post a comment.

Easter Layouts with Close to my Heart's Chantilly paper

For my April class I picked our Chantilly paper pack,new  Easter Wishes stamp set, and used the Make it From Your Heart Volume 1 guide to create this layout. I also used the Art Philosophy and Artiste Cricut Cartridges for some of the images. I love Close to my Heart products and love to show off what you can create with them.                                           
    2 years ago I went to a 2 day crop in Florida and a Stampin UP consultant make a cute bunny in a carrot. I recreated it for this layout.
    This class will be held on Monday April 8th at 6:30 PM. You will need to let me know if you want a girl or boy layout. The cost for this class will be $8. Please bring your own adhesive. There is always a snack of some kind and usually chocolate.
Bring a friend and each of you will receive a gift.
Please RSVP by April 1 to assure I have enough of the right papers cut for you. Don't forget to let me know if you need a boy or girl layout.
Sure hope to see you there. If you need directions email me at scrappy55@msn.com

What a Hoot March LO


  This is the layout for my March 11th  6:30 PM class.- What a Hoot. This layout features our Clementine paperpack, twine, and most of the owls and tags are cut using the Art Philosophy and Artiste Close to my Heart cartridges. The idea of this layout is not my original- I scraplifted from  2 very talented CTMH consultants, Mary and Holly. I modified it to fit my needs. You will need to bring your own adhesive and glue pen if you have one. We always have chocolate and goodies. Bring a friend and you both receive a gift. The cost is $10.
 The March CTMH special is that if you have an order, or orders, that qualify as a gathering ($150 or more), Close to my Heart will bump you to the next qualifing level for free products and half price items. I'm excited for this!!!!!

Wedding Collage


 Today I finished a gift for a co-worker. The photo has a shadow on the last row of pictures that is not really there.I had made paper flower bouquets for some of her quest tables at her reception and had left over flowers- so I used them on the collage. She will be returning from her honeymoon next week. I hope she likes it!!!!!!!
 The paperpack used behind the 5 x 7 is For Always from the new spring Close to my Heart catalog. The paper flowers were made from the Close to my Heart Cricut cartridge Art Philosophy.

Paper Flower Bouquets


   

       Over the past several weeks I have been working on paper flower bouquets for a co-workers wedding. They are time comsuming but s0 pretty when they are done. Her color scheme is in purples.


     And my mom is painting her bedroom lavender and she has a birthday this month. So with the left over flowers I made her a bouquet also. I didn't have a fancy vase and couldn't find one that was small and white today- so I used a jar that I had and fancied it up a bit.
   Hope you like my weekend projects. I used Close to my Heart's  Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge to make the flowers.
Happy scrapping!!!!!!!

February Layout

            My Feb class is scheduled for Monday Feb 11th at 7PM at our house. The cost is $8. The pages come together very quickly. You will need to bring your own adhesive. This layout holds 3-4x6's, 1-4x4, and 4-3 x 3 photos. Since Valentine Day will be a few days away form our class we will make one of Close to my Heart's Who's Your Valentine treat boxes. The cost for the boxes are $2 each


        The layout above shows off not only the Close to my Heart Dakota paperpack, but my lovely family. This layout is taken from one of Jeanette Lynton's (founder and CEO of Close to my Heart) scrapbooking  program books. I love using the books to help me arrange my layouts and help me decide how many photos I can nicely arrange. This paper pack is so easy to use for all sorts of events.
This Layout is also using the Dakota paperpack. This layout is also a layout you can find in our newest Make it from Your Heart pattern book. I loved this layout for our photos.

        This layout also shows off the Dakota paperpack and my grandson showing his pigs at the fair. This layout uses our flip flaps to add extra pictures to a layout.

           You can see how the top picture flips open. There are actually 5 pictures in that one spot. I love flip flaps for those layouts that I have too many photos that I don't want to just settle for a few of them.
       Close to my Heart has so many neat products. You can go to my site and check them out. scrappydeb.ctmh.com
        Our new idea book will be available on line Feb 1st. You won't want to miss it.
