Picture My Life in Hopscotch

Here is another week of my life in pictures this year...thanks to the super quick and easy Picture My Life system of scrapbooking, my pics are all scrapped so far in 2015.

I love mixing it up for these pocket pages!  I took a pic of an old pic that I printed out many years ago...a great way to preserve a fading memory!  How many of you have pictures that are fading in a frame from years ago that you have no idea where the NEGATIVES are stored...or if they are on a ZIP disc somewhere???  Yeah, admit it! This is one of my big motivations to get my pics in albums--technology is in constant motion whether we like it or not.  Scrapbooks will be there to flip open at any time!  :)

I have been eying these hexagons from the Happy Hexagon Hostess My Acrylix set for a long time, and I finally had the page to use them...

If you are a regular visitor to my blog, you know I love me some sparkle in my creations, and I try my best to keep on sparkling no matter what...which is where my CTMH glitter paper really comes in handy!  My friend, Jayma, shared this little FB post on my wall at the end of January, and I just loved it so much, I had to print it out for my album!  :)  Thanks, Jayma!

Unfortunately, the Hopscotch Kit that I used for these is leaving our warehouses as soon as they run out, so get your hands on them if you like them...they are becoming some of my favorite PML cards!  Check these out...

Don't wait too long to get yours!  :)

A Cupid for Valentine's Day

I'm really rolling in the love theme after that Valentine's Day blog hop this weekend.  Here is another heart-tastic card creation to spark your creativity...

This one uses another one of Close to My Heart's fab Hostess Rewards Stamp Sets.  It is called Happy Hexagons and has a variety of sentiments, along with these fantastically formable hearts...

The hexagons in this set coordinate with the Cricut Artbooking Cartridge.

The rest of these images are found on the lovely Forever in My Heart and January Stamp of the Month My Acrylix stamp sets.  I used the CTMH Exclusive Inks Hollyhock and Black.

Guest Designer for Atlantic Hearts!

Hi everyone!  I am so excited to be the guest designer at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge today!  :)

I LOVE following some of my amazing Close to My Heart consultant friends to see what they are up to with both new and old products.  It is a GREAT way to get inspired.  (It is also a crazy way to find out you and your friends have the SAME creative ideas sometimes, which you will notice if you played along last week!)

Here is this week's sketch to play along with...

Now, here is my sweet creation with the current Stamp of the Month, Home for the Holidays!

I am ALWAYS ready to warm up my new Cricut Explore, and this stamp set coordinates with the Art Philosophy Collection!  I cut the postage stamp and frame both at the size listed on the carrier sheet that comes with our My Acrylix stamps.  :)

This sugar bear is full of the spirit of the season.  I used a sentiment from the Hostess ONLY Rewards Set called Sweet As Sugar...

I think this makes such a great addition to the candies in the Stamp of the Month!  It is truly a must-have!

This year, I am enjoying the cool color combo from the Snowhaven Paper Packet for winter creations.  I am also STILL loving the sparkle in the Close to My Heart Glitter Paper and Shimmer Trim that I used to add little accents...

I added a little interest to the inside of the card with a simple image from the front...

Guess what!?  I found another sentiment on YET ANOTHER fantastic Hostess ONLY Rewards Stamp for this one!

It is called Happy Hexagons, and you can ONLY get one by hosting an in-home or online gathering, by placing your order of $150 or more with me, OR by joining my Rewards Club!  Contact me today so you can get your hands on these fantastic products and join in on all the fun over at Atlantic Hearts!  :)
