Pretty Pins

I love the idea of stringing your favorite photo's across a line using clothespins. Not just plain pins though, really pretty ones. I made a set of clothespins using the Chantilly papers and a fun flower accent. I did a simple sentiment stamp on one of them and packaged them all together neatly in one of the new large My Creations Paper Pouch.

It's so simple to stamp on these paper pouches!

You could easily tuck some twine in the package and give them as a gift!

 



Pretty Party Card

I mixed in some Kraft cardstock with the beautiful Chantilly papers for this week's Mojo Monday sketch! I really like the sketch this week and thought it would be perfect for the Perfect Fit Frames and a Birthday sentiment. I was going to leave the kraft plain in the background, but then played with some party pennants in white daisy ink. It is just a fun card, sure to bring a smile to a Birthday girl!

Happy, Happy, Happy!

Duck Dynasty fans will know this phrase from Phil the dad! My daughter loves watching this show, so I thought this would be a fun card for her Birthday. In true Duck Dynasty fashion it would have been done in camouflage, but these are more like her favorite colors!

I used the sketch for this week on Freshly Made Sketches. It worked perfectly with the new Wheel of Life stamp. I used the stamp from the Chantilly Workshop on the Go to fill in the pie wedges. I also used images from the Perfect Fit-Birthday stamp as well! I think it's cute and will make my "yuppie" girl Happy, Happy, Happy!

The Paper Players ~ Peace and Comfort

The theme this week on The Paper Players is sympathy. They are indeed a difficult card to make, however they can be so welcoming to a person grieving. Using some new Chantilly papers and the gorgeous Fabulous You {C1533} bird image I've created this card. Perhaps one day it will bring some peace and comfort to a friend.

Hoot~Hoot Love! {Mojo Monday meets Dynamic Duo}

How about some sweet Valentine love today, while I combine two challenges!

I've used the sketch from Mojo Monday this week and the colors of pink & red from Dynamic Duo's. I chose Close To My Heart colors of Cotton Candy and Cranberry on a nice clean white background. These little owls are so in love...what a hoot!

 

 

The Lovely Chantilly {Spring Open House}

I have some more artwork for you today from my Spring Open House. One of the prettiest papers in the new book is the lovely Chantilly. I was able to create a couple of layouts showing the papers versatility. It has lots of pinks and reds in it, but is not necessarily a girly paper!

Before I show you the pages, I want to share a card I made for the Paper Players challenge. This card definitely shows off the pretty, feminine side of Chantilly!

This first layout shows the "girly" side of Chantilly. It has pinks, reds, yellows and floral patterns. I created this one for my teen daughter that enjoys fashion.

Check out this fun embellishment created with the stamp included in the Workshop on the Go kit! The arrow can spin to indicate my daughter's fashion choice!

The little dress was cut on the Cricut Artiste cartridge then paper pieced!

Flip to the other side of the double sided paper and you get a whole new look of Chantilly! How adorable would this page be for a little boy or even your Easter celebration!

The recent trend of honeycombs is so graphic and fun! The little sentiment included on the stamp in the kit is just perfect for the shapes!

The fabric buttons are a quick embellishment anywhere on your project.

There you have it! The lovely Chantilly paper is pretty and oh so versatile! I would also recommend the Workshop on the Go kit so that you can play with not only the gorgeous papers, but the stamp, fabric buttons, glitter gems and instructional brochure. {G1053 $29.95}

Simple Sketch with Sunshine!

This week on the Paper Players Blog is a super simple sketch. Playing with some new Chantilly papers I added a bit of sunshine to it!

The sweet little cloud is from the stamp set only available in the Chantilly Workshop on the Go. I added a few rays of creme brulee twine for the sun light!
