Heart 2 Heart

This week at Heart 2 Heart the theme is "Life is a Beach". I was fortunate enough to have vacationed in Hawaii this year and I have hundreds of photos to scrap! Not all of them are taken on a beach, but this particular day was spent walking on the sand and relaxing...

I used Close to My Heart "Footloose" paper and stamp sets C1495 Just Chillin and C1500 Under the Sea along with sever cuts from my Cricut.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch 116

I pulled out an old Close to My Heart SOTM (S1301 Happy Valentine's) and paper pack (Laughing Lola) for this weeks Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #116. I also used stamp set D1539 The Happy Couple and Gold Shimmer Trim which I punched with my scallop border punch. The roses were colored in with Shin Han Markers and accented with gold stickles glitter glue. I embossed the white background with the CTMH Damask embossing folder.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch 115

Because I need to catch up on my Scrapbooking I made a layout for this weeks Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #115. I usually don't do layouts with just one picture, but this one was so cute, I wanted it to stand out. I used CTMH "Chalk it Up" paper with Pacifica, Glacier and white Daisy Cardstock.

Three Amigo's Mini Blog Hop

Welcome to the Three Amigos July 2015 Close to My Heart Mini-Blog Hop. We are three Close to My Heart Consultants with a love for Stamping and Scrapping and would like to share our creative ideas with you. On the 3^rd day of each month we will feature a different CTMH product and create a card, layout or other project. There are only 3 stops on this hop so it will only take a few minutes to hop through.

This month we are having a BLAST FROM THE PAST! I dug out this card that I made before I was even a Close to My Heart Consultant. It is made with one of my favorite old CTMH paper packs, "Silhouette" and D1349 "Be Yourself" Stamp set.

Now hop on over to Susan's Blog and Lisa's Blog to see what they have created this month!
