December Club projects

For December, we used X7146B Wonderland My Reflections kit. Since not everybody lives where there's snow, I wanted to create a layout that was wintery, and then one that would be something totally different from the usual winter layout.

So, this is the layout I came up with.  The large snowflake and dot papers came from the Wonderland kit, and the small bamboo flower paper came from a previous My Reflections kit called Bliss.  I loved the Bliss papers!
For our Stamp a Stack club, we used C1468 Winter Joy, along with the same Wonderland papers.

The snowflakes were cut from the Close To My Heart Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge.

Our new scrap club starts in February with layouts done from the Magic Idea Book. There's always openings in both the scrap club and the Stamp a Stack club.  Email me if you'd like any details.

How would you like to win a 3 month membership to Studio J?  "What's Studio J", you asked?  It is just about the easiest digital scrapbooking program around!  It uses the wonderful papers from Close To My Heart, and sketches from all four of Close To My Heart's How-To books.  As a member, you'll have access to "members only" papers and layouts along with all the others!


How pretty is this layout?!  This is a "members only" layout called Performance.  What's really cool is, the pages have been swapped in that the left page is really the right page in the layout, and all you have to do is click in one spot to swap the sides.  Also, you can rotate each page all the way to create even more layouts.

So, if you'd like your chance to win a 3 month Studio J membership, simply leave me a comment and become a follower of my blog by the end of today and you'll be in for the drawing.  I'll be announcing the winner tomorrow, January 10.

January Stamp of the Month

January's Stamp of the Month, S1201 A Little Reminder, has so many different uses for many times of the year. 


Check out the cards that my friend Karen created using it.

Wondering how she made the snowflake?  Easy!  She started with Z1225 Dimensional Elements Flurry, and covered it with Z308 Liquid Applique,  and then coated with Z134 Prisma Glitter.  Then she heated it with her heat gun to puff up the Liquid Applique.

 The Stamp of the Month can be yours for $17.95, or, only $5 with your $50 order.
