Documented CTMH Australasian Blog Hop

If you arrived here from Shaunna's Passionate About Pages, welcome.

If you landed here by chance, join in and hop around! This hop features our stunning Documented collection. I've never seen a paper suite like it.

This is my absolute favorite pack from Seasonal Expressions 2 and I am so sad to see it go at the end of the month!

Featured colors: Almond, Bashful, Blossom, Charcoal, Eggplant, Heather, Linen, New England Ivy, Nutmeg, Peacock, Saffron

I created this layout for my last Beginners Scrapbooking workshop from Seasonal Expressions 2. It uses some gold glitter to emphasize the yellow flowers in the paper.

I added the shimmer brush painted flowers after I took the full photo. It needed some oomph!

I'm really excited about how these cards came together. I'm planning out my Christmas Card workshops and they will be my featured designs.

The flowers reminded me of stars so I grabbed my star stamps and went to town. A little of this, a little of that, poof!

For the love of crafting

If you arrived here from Doris Taylor's Creative Inspirations, welcome. Join in and hop around!

This hop features our stamp of the month, S1808 For the Love of Crafting. The mix of cheeky sentiments and images is one that makes me giggle.

At our recent consultant training and networking day, five of the six ladies at my lunch table won a prize in our lucky dip raffle. I won a roll of shimmer trim! By the end of the day, I had glitter everywhere aftter cutting a sheet of glitter paper for some workshop kits. I craft so hard I sweat glitter. ;) I had to use this layout for the day's photos.

It was a good day. My project debut went well, Vanessa rejoined my team, and 5 of the 6 of us at my lunch table won a prize. I got shimmer trim!

It was a warmer than normal winter day (to me). I was very glittery!

My shapes weren't dry enough to thin cut and attach to my page. The big flowers will be on the RH page peacock striped pieces. I have shimmer up to my elbows now.

Tone on tone stamping with Bashful ink made this strip pop.

Hello Lovely Blog Hop

Welcome to the Hello Lovely blog hop!

If you landed here from Vandra’s Virtual CTMH Craftroom no worries, you're in the right place. If you landed here from somewhere else, welcome! Read on and follow the hop for heaps of inspiration!

This month's featured paper collection is Hello Lovely. It's a beautiful mix of florals, soft patterns, and an overall lovely "art deco" feel.

I recently had a long weekend away at Scrapbook Camp where my goal was to restock my card buffet with new kits. I had a pile of gold glitter hearts to use and I was determined to use them all! I did 8 new card designs over the weekend with 5 of them using Hello Lovely. These are a few of the card kits I came up with!

I added some gold glitter paper and a retired stamp to create this birthday card.

This love you card can be use for a bunch of different occasions. Birthdays, Valentine's Day, just because, or to cheer someone up on a downer of a day. A bit of doubled thin cuts and embossing lifts this design from meh to WOW. You might be wondering where the Hello Lovely paper is on this card. It's the subtle gray paper under the love thin cuts! You could also use a bolder pattern in place of the embossed heart strip.

I combined old and new stampsets to create this card. The bubbles are colored in with the clear shimmer brush. I can't wait to see the faces of people as they make this. It's stunning!

The last card I have is this simple friendship card. It came together pretty quickly!
