A couple of little gems

Here's a couple of 3x3 sized enclosure cards I put together today. If you're coming to the retreat this weekend, these are your make and take project!

The first is using Stardust papers, Wishing Star stamps, Moonstruck and Topiary inks, White Daisy cardstock and silver bigger brads.

The second uses Daydream papers, Cupcake Sprinkles stamps, Lilac Mist, Blush, and Hollyhock inks, and Liquid Glass.

Both patterns for these cards are from the fabulous Originals book.

Baby Shower Invites

These are the invitations I made for my sister's baby shower coming up next month. I am so excited to be an Auntie! I had a lot of fun designing and making these. The inspiration came from a card made by a fellow CTMH consultant Shelly Glassic and her design using the Whooo Loves You owl stamp set. Mine uses papers from the Unforgettable kit, Sorbet, Juniper, Cocoa and Vanilla Cream cardstocks, the Bird Basics and Simple Invites stamp sets and some pewter brads. To open, slide the cocoa band off, open the flap and the top comes open with all the details inside (I still have to finish that part). I cut the Juniper flower with my Cricut Expression using the Accent Essentials cartridge.

These are the layouts from my January Imagine Scrapbooking Workshop.

Happy New Year!

We just got back home from a super relaxing and fun week in Seaside, so it was time to get back to work and make some more new projects!

The first card is using the new CTMH kit Emporium, Connections and Faith/Love/Hope stamp sets, Vineyard Berry eyelets and Cocoa, Buttercup and Twilight inks.

The second card is using papers from the new Stardust kit, along with Believe in your Dreams stamp set, summer and holiday buttons, summer sassy strands, Colonial White waxy flax, and Prisma Glitter which you can barely see in this photo, along with Topiary and Moonstruck inks.

After I made both of these, I took a look at the similarity of the sentiments and laughed. I must be feeling inspired with the start of a new year!

Hope you have a great 2009!
