Scrapbook layout for February 2017 Stamp Club

Here is the layout for Monday night, February 13th.  This is basically the Creative Insider layout... the one CTMH does for us... I don't usually use it, but I really liked this one.  Also, since we have the layout from last month to do, I thought simpler would be better.

Supplies used...
B&T paper: Hello Lovely
Cardstock: Sea glass, sorbet, fern, colonial white
Stamps:  Leaves from C1612 Shower Flowers, and D1683 Woodland Romance (retired)
Ink: New England Ivy, fern and sea glass
Embellishments: Flower from Flower Garden Cricut Cartridge, Clear Sparkles and Bitty Sparkles, Cherish cut from Artbooking Cridut Cartridge

Very simple, and the instructions show the photos as not being matted.  You may have an extra sheet of cardstock if you want your photos matted.

Happy stamping!

Kathy's gathering... February 6, 2017

For Kathy's gathering we will be completing 2 cards from the G1124 Workshop Your Way Here for You Carkmaking Kit!

I had never purchased any of these cardmaking kits, but I really loved the stamps in this kit, so I decided to give it a try... and I love it!  The kit includes the stamp set, 2 sheets from the Some Kinda Wonderful paper packet, 2 sheets of cardstock (blossom and white daisy), 1 roll of white shimmer trim, a package of black & white dots, and 12 white card bases and envelopes.  With the inks (blossom, smoothie, willow) and an additional paper packet, you can make quite a few of these cards with the embellsihments provided.

If you don't like the sentiments, you can substitute  as shown by my examples below.

Happy stamping!
