The Matchbook Card

 Nothing is better that getting a card with a goodie in it!! A few weeks ago at Bath &Body Works I found these cute little bird fingernail files- the colors matched the Dream Pop Paper Pack perfectly!! I used a pattern from the CTMH Wishes book (now retired). I just use some removable adhesive to attach the fingernail files! Check back tomorrow for another Matchbook card

You're Sweet Confetti Card

I found a card on Pinterest that had some confetti behind an image that I just loved. The problem with Pinterest is that sometimes there is no source for the photo. After a little searching and googling I discovered that the image came from a Stampin' Up catalog.  Of course that meant no directions and I would have to figure it out on my own. This is my version of that card. And here's how I did it.
I punched some circles and then I sewed them behind a piece of velum. The original card used transparency sheets I think, but I didn't have much luck when I tried that. The transparency was so "staticy" that the circle confetti didn't move at all.

to say hi

For this card I used the fun beach stamp set from CTMH called Bright Sunshinny Day. As I was coloring this great car image I was thinking to myself how fun it would be to have a car like that to pull my Lucy Trailer!!
A quick update on the Lucy Trailer- I have new floor installed and now she is ready to be painted!

Pool Kit

 A few years ago I found these 4 pack drink caddy and they have been in my stash for awhile. I decided to pull one out and make a  cute pool kit. I loaded the drink caddy down with sunscreen, snacks and goggles. I decorated the front using the stamp set from the Surf's Up Workshop on the Go! You can see a Christmas drink caddy here and a Fall drink caddy here!

How Lovely Mini Album using Dream Pop

 I made this mini album using the National Scrapbook Month Special from CTMH. The Dream Pop paper pack is so FUN!! The title page of this album was cut from one of the pages- The pattern paper already said, HOW LOVELY!
I used a chipboard album from Close to My Heart and the album went together in minutes because all the pages cut on the CTMH Artiste cartridge!! Next up was embellishing and decorating the pages-the fun part!

Having Some Fun Shine

These two cards were made using the Surf's Up Workshop on the Go Kit. Are you wondering how I did those small circles on the left card. It's kinda funny how I came up with it- I was re-inking my chocolate stamp pad and my re-inker bottle seemed to be a little clogged up. So I squeezed really hard over a paper plate to see if it would come out, well it did, a lot of it!!
I didn't want to waste it, so I used the lid to the re-inker bottle as a stamp and stamped circles all over the card.
NOTE: Re-inker is strong stuff, so it will bleed through!

You have Style

 Did you know that May is National Scrapbook Month? I can't think of a better holiday, can you? A whole month dedicated to scrapbooking sounds like heaven to me!! In honor of National Scrapbook month CTMH has created a special paper pack called Dream Pop-
I mad this layout using the papers from the pack- below you can see a picture of all the papers. Some of them have some embossing on them that is wonderful-you can see it on the pink piece below (the orange is also, but not as easy to tell in the picture.) I cut the dress form and the word Style using the CTMH Artiste cricut cartridge.
 I was having a had time getting my black glitter letters to stick, so my tip for you is to use your sewing machine for letters and embellishments that wont stay down!
