catching up

I have been working really hard the past few weeks to catch up and get some of my layouts finished... I have the  habit of creating a layout but not quite finishing it which usually means printing off the pictures and doing the journaling.  I guess there are worse habits to have!

Here are a few that I finished recently.  

 All of these papers have now been officially retired from the Close To My Heart Idea Book but can be found on "Studio J".  What is Studio J you ask?



"Studio J® is free online scrapbooking design software brought to you by Close To My Heart. Studio J helps you easily create two-page layouts using our foundational scrapbook patterns, exclusive color palette, and themed designs all delivered in 12" × 12" custom prints ready for your albums. " 




 I have played around with the Studio J software and it is a ton of fun!  I know a few people that do almost all of their scrap booking this way.  If interested, follow this link www.paperdragonfleur.ctmh.com to my website and you will find it on the drop-down menu under "Products".  Have fun!












Wish the photo's of this layout came out better.  The colours are so vibrant in real life!  I need to work on my photography skills...  Brighter light perhaps.

Lest we forget

This time of year is super busy for me helping my crafty friends prepare for Christmas but I wanted to take the time to properly give my respects to Remembrance Day.  Like many Canadians, my grandfathers and great-grandfather's fought in the World Wars.  Their sacrifices and the sacrifices that those "left behind at home" made helped ensure the Canadian peace and lifestyle we can so easily take for granted on a regular day.  So at this time of year, we remember and we say Thank You.

Christmas in July!

Image
For this weeks Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge I decided to do some "Christmas in July"! This card is a mix of current, retired, and soon to be retired products from Close To My Heart.
Current products are the beautiful Fresh Air patterned papers, the Pewter cardstock, and Silver Sequins.  The retired products are the Wood Grain embossing folder used on the Pewter Cardstock (along with a little light sanding) and the Poppy Twine (which can still be found in the Clearance section of my shopping website!).

The soon to be retired... the Poppy and Juniper cardstock that I used to cut out my sentiment and the accent branch.  I bet you are saying WHAT! Poppy and Juniper are retiring!!!  I know, they have long been favorites of mine too but don't panic, I am sure the colours that are replacing them are going to be gorgeous.  The Cricut cuts are; Merry Christmas  - Artiste (retired) and for the Pine Needle Branch - Flower Market.

Thank you for stopping by and I truly appreciat…
