December Club Layout

This layout was done using Laughing Lola paper and stamp sets that came with the Artbooking Cricut cartridge.

November club layout

Club met on Friday and this is the layout we did, the paper is older CTMH paper but we made the poinsettias using the snowflakes stamp which coordinates with the Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge and a Holiday stamp set for the leaves which were also cut out using the cricut cartridge.  I really like this layout and already put some pics on mine, will have to post the finished layout (hopefully without the glare).

October Club layout

This layout was using the Frosted paper and the flakey friends stamp, I colored in the snowmen with CTMH water color pencils.

September Club layout

Love this layout using Huntington paper.  The title was done with the artbooking cricut cartridge and the swirls.  Did tissue inking on the leaves and then outlined in bronze glitter gel.

August Club layout

August Club layout using Sarita paper from CTMH.  Also using the new Cricut cartridge Artbooking.  Love the new cartridge.

July's club layout

I really like this layout, I used "Tommy" paper from Close to My Heart and "Home of the Brave" stamp set.  I did embossing on the statue of Liberty and think it turned out pretty cute.  Enjoy.

June's Club Layout

This was June's club layout using the CTMH buzz and bumble paper, we used Giggle caps alphabet stamp, distressed backgrounds and honeycomb flair for the stamping.

Here are a couple pics of the paper crafts I did for a wedding shower.  I also made the cupcakes which I must say were delish.

May Club Layout

May's Layout was made using Dakota paper for the base page and Later SK8r, we used random stamping to color in the cricuted cog shapes.  

March Club Layout

This was using the "Always" paper pack and cranberry cardstock, plus the March Stamp of the Month for the roses.

February hostess club layout

This layout was made using a couple packs I had of bulk papers from Sonoma and Mayberry paper.  I love the way Close to My Heart's colors coordinate to make this possible.  I cricuted the title using Close to My Heart's art philosophy cartridge.  No stamping this time.  Maybe next month.  I did do some distressing on the colonial white base edges, hard to see in the picture. 

January hostess club layout

This was our club layout for January 2013.  I used Avonlea paper from Close to My Heart.  The title is stamped and the lacey round shape we did using heat embossing with silver embossing powder.
