Close to My Heart Wings Workshop Layout!

First off Blogger gave me fits yeaterday when I tried to post so I gave up and will have two posts today!  Sorry to all of you early morning viewers that catch up during your morning coffee--
So here is the layout from the Wings Workshop on the Go!  I have to say I love this paper--I have used almost all of it and have already ordered another set!

I love the wall paper look that you get with a placed stamp and toanl ink.  I also love love love this new cuttlebug folder that matched next to perfect.

Make it a great one!

Wings Workshop On the Go Cards

Well I am off to NYC today and I have been doing my best to work ahead so I can keep this fresh!
Today I want to share the cards from the WINGS workshop on the go from CTMH.  You get a ton of stuff in these workshops--more than enough to make 6 cards (2 each of three designs) and a two page layout as well as many many projects with the leftover paper, trims, and the exclusive stamp sets that are only available in the kits!

I have never been disappointed in the workshops and some of my fav stamp sets are kit exclusives--so worth the 29.99.
Make it a great one!!!!

Close to My Heart January Workshop on the Go Preveiw!!!!

Happy Tuesday.  Yesterday was a tough day having been off for two weeks and walking into a crazy travel time at work.  While on Vacation I did a lot of crafting and used the January preview items on a number of my projects.  Check out the video to see the total Workshop as well as a number of new items and stamp sets available now.



Come back the rest of this week for projects made with these great papers!!!!
Make it a great one-

Happy New Year!!!

Well it seems like forever since we shared but it was only a week!  Well with the new year come new projects and a whole new set of ideas!  I am going to kick this year off right with a card to all of you-

the paper is DCWV, stamp is from Michael's dollar bins, ribbon is SU, and bling was from the $1 bling scrapbook booth!  This cuttlebug folder is part of the preserves set.

My message to all of you that would be written on the inside in silver signo pen:
May the year we leave behind leave us with memories to share and the year before us allow us to create many more.  Be blessed in 2011 and remember what life is about--the moments!  We move so quickly and are so busy that many times we forget to stop and enjoy the moments presented to us.  This year make it a point to stop and record in your memory the feelings, smells, sounds, and images that life presents.
May the best be yours-
Scrapguy

Come back everyday this week for previews of some of the new CTMH product and the January Workshop on the Go-the new idea book comes out in February and there is some great new must haves!!!  I just love new products, papers, stamps, and well anything relating to our wonderful hobby!
Make it a great one!

Oh Christmas Tree!!!!!

Well it seems that Christmas is less than 24 hours away--the family fun starts tonight!!!!
I have one last Christmas project before I take next week off for some vacation and focused craft time!  I made this with mini chocolate bars, some floral foam, and a whole lot of hot glue.  I 'potted' it in a spray painted pot I got for a Buck.  I must admit this took 5 bags of candy but the reaction was worth it!

May you all be richly blessed during the holiday and your new year be bright! 

Super easy gift wrap Idea

All you need is a half a sheet of 12x12 pattern paper, a clear pail from Michael's (2.00), and a hot glue gun!  Simple right.  I also crimped the paper before I put it in the pale to give some added depth--
I am using these as stockings for my nieces and nephew

Hope all your last minute things are getting move from the to do to the done list--Make it a great one!

Treat bags revisited using Cricut Gingerbread Seasonal Cartridge

Here is another way of doing a treat bag these are perfect to be filled with puzzle or activity books, card games, etc and give to the kids at the family functions--gives them something to do!

I also added a little holiday notebook and a Pezz!  Most of the items came from the dollar section at Target.
The cut is from the Gingerbread Seasonal Cartridge (i used it on a card last week)  but the top layer in glitter paper (multi cut 2 or use deep cut blade)  I punched the name tag using a fiskers multi punch and wrote the name of the person to recve it on that--like a real present
Make it a great one
