Heartstrings Birthday Page

sept-2-pages-page-007
The Heartstrings Workshop on the Go (G1090) is a card making kit but I have used the stamps on lots of my album pages.  The sentiments blend with so many of life's celebrations.  Today my pages are all about my sister's birthday breakfast which we celebrated on our balcony in Riomaggiore on the Cinque Terra in Italy last year.  It was a very special experience!

The layout is based on Card Trick from the Magic How To Book (9040).  It was very quick to make.

As mentioned yesterday, I made a couple of cards with the gorgeous Year Noted kit.  This kit is only available during January 2015.  It's just $10 with a $75 order.  The kit  includes a C-size stamp set, gold foil stickers, cardstocks, and B&T Duos™ papers, valued at $37.  You can also add a Mini album for just $5 more - that's $52 value for just $15!

Year Noted - Oxfam High Tea Page

Have you had a look at the beautiful pages in this month's CTMH special promotion?  Click here for details.  The soft orange, blue and yellow tones and subtle prints work so well for cards and pages.  I was surprised just how far this pack of papers and stickers will stretch.  I've created a double page layout and 2 cards and I've only used about half the pack.  Check back tomorrow to see the cards.  Today I'm sharing the pages I made.

Home Produce

sept-2-pages-page-007
My husband has green fingers.  His vegetable garden provides us with LOTS of beautiful fresh produce all year round.  I love summertime for the amazing tomatoes he grows.  This year's crop is abundant and so he has been cooking up a storm making tomato relish and sauce.  You can't beat homemade sauces.

I'm 'TOTES' in love!

sept-2-pages-page-007
I was in my PJ's early last night, getting reading for a night at the scrapbook table when the doorbell rang.  It was my Upline, Louinna Hundley, with a special delivery for me!  She and Susan Wilmot, my Presidential Director, had awarded me this gift as a reward for helping other consultants in their businesses during 2014.  I was soooo excited to receive the brand new organiser.

In the spotlight...

Today I'd like to share the work of 3 of my customers.  They spent the day at our Paper Picnic on Saturday making cards.  I was so impressed I just had to share with you all.

Xmas cards

These Christmas cards were created by Sue Kennedy using her trusty Cricut and lots of Glitter Paper.  I love the simplicity of the cards - letting the shimmery goodness of the paper do all the work.  One technique Sue tried was stamping in Black Archival Ink onto the Glitter Paper - doesn't it look great?  Glitter Paper is a…

Seaside Ink Free page

sept-2-pages-page-007
I have a friend who has a birthday on Anzac Day - how lucky her friends are never working on her birthday!  We joined her family to celebrate the occasion with a twilight sail.  It was a perfect Perth evening and such a happy time.  How fortuitous that Close To My Heart has the Seaside papers (X7192b) and Complements stickers (X7192c)!   They were perfect for my photos.

Twilight Sail

I based this layout on the Clean Dimension layout on pages 102-103 of the Cherish How To Book (9038)  I love how easy it is to c…
