I am so excited!!! In September, I will be starting a new monthly club!!! What better month to start scrapping with 10 wonderful ladies, then "National Stamping Month"!!! Wait until you see what CTMH has in store for that!!! A promotion you won't want to miss.
Anyways, the first paper pack we are using for club is "Babycakes" and I will be giving each of my club members a choice between making 3 cards or a 2 page layout. I had finished the cards earlier this week & love them - if you missed that post, check it out here.
Last night, I was able to finish the layout and love it even MORE!! Tell me what you think!
How great is it? This layout has so many potentials. With the banner "HOORAY" you can then choose to do so many themes! Use it for a trip to the zoo, or a crazy day with a house full of kids, or even an animal themed party! Actually before I put the animals on there, my hubby said it was great colours for Halloween!!! The sky is your limit!!! (I will be filling it with ultrasound pictures - of Brooklyn - No this is not an announcement haha)
If you love this layout or cards as much as I do, just send me an email & find out how you can get your own!

Products Used: Babycakes Paper PacketWild Wonders stamp set, exclusive hostess stamp set "The Party is On", Chocolate Ink stamp pad, Sunset Ink stamp pad, Sparkles Brown & Tan AssortmentBronze Shimmer Trim, & a new promotional stamp set coming out SEPTEMBER 1ST!!!

Well its been a while since I've posted!!! Its been a crazy summer around here, but as August comes to an end, things are going to start slowing down and I hope to be blogging more!!!

Anyways, I finally got a moment to myself & just finished working on 3 beautiful cards using the great paper packet "Babycakes"!!!

When I first saw this paper pack, I thought "aww this is going to be so cute for Carson's baby album." Then as I was flipping through the new idea book for the 100th time, I realized this packet is full of beautiful colours!! Grey, orange, yellow, & brown - I love it! These colours are so IN & can be used for more then just babies!!! Check out my pics below!

Hope my cards give you the inspiration you need to start creating outside of the box with paper made not just for babies!!! Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have and don't forget about this months exclusive stamp!!! It could be yours for only $5!

For my project, I decided to use the My Creations Kraft Container and August's SOTM, A Chocolate Affair. This container can be used as a way to give a little gift of chocolate to someone you love or used to hold some of your own special treats! Check it out below!
 
 
This was the first time I have used my mini pigment inks to emboss & I loved it!!! Do you see how the chocolate bars look shiny & glossy??? Well with CTMH pigment inks (which come in all 40 colours) and clear embossing powder, you can emboss your images in any colour!!! No need for 40 different powders! How great is this!?!?! Its so simple to do - just stamp your image with the pigment ink of your colour, cover in clear embossing powder, & heat with the craft heater until its glossy & beautiful! Voila!
