Footloose Summer Mini Album

This is another project I submitted with my CTMH Extravaganza application.  BTW - I was selected!!  I love CTMH and all of their products.  It is so easy to make beautiful project using their products.  For this album I used the Footloose level 2 paper pack, the coordinating dimensional elements, the Seaside Wooden Shapes and the coordinating Baker's twine.  All I need to do now is get myself to the beach and take some pics!!

Happy, Happy Birthday!

I made this card for a girl at work using the CTMH Art Philosophy cartridge, Lucy paper pack and the awesome new product, color ready ribbon.  I also used the Fashionista My Acrylix stamp set.  She love the card and I love that I can make such beautiful cards with CTMH!

Pumpkin Patch Fun with Tear Bears

This is a fun layout that I made after a day of picking pumpkins at Red Wolfe Farm.  The stamped pumpkins are Close To My Hear and I cut the flowers with the CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge.  I made a similar version to send to CTMH for the Extravaganza application.  I left the tear bears off and used only CTMH materials.  I think the Stella paper pack was perfect for the pumpkin patch!

Florentine Desk Set

I made this desk set using CTMH's Florentine Level 2 paper pack and the coordinating stickease.  I also used one of my favorite new product, the Color Ready Ribbon.  This ribbon is so easy to sponge the color you need it to be.  I have 60 CTMH ribbon colors and only have to store one ribbon round!  With this cool ribbon, I will always have the right color for my project.
