Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop

Hello Friends! Thanks so much for joining us this month. The Scrapbooking Global Design Team has a Blog Hop each month and you are welcome to join the Hop as well.

You will have arrived from Julia Quinn's Blog

I've been creating loads of layouts using our Autumn to Remember DSP and sticker sheet with Stampin' Up! Plus of course some exclusive dies, embossing folders and stamps too.

This month's challenge at Scrapbooking Global is a Tic Tac Board and I've picked the colour green, three or more photos and tags. What a great challenge to get these adorable photos of my daughter and my grandson having snuggles on his birthday in October. I love when the papers and photos and embellishments all work so great together...one more moment documented and in the books!

I had fun using our *new Hearts of Elegance stamp and die bundle and some gold embossing powder. I'm a sucker for the shapes and the fact that these hearts are a great size and work well for my layouts is a bonus! I will be getting loads of use outta them.

Thanks so much for visiting my blog. I hope you enjoyed my layout share. Hop on over to Michelle's Craft Cottage to see what she has created and then continue along for more inspiration.

It's all about Fall here and boy was I feeling the Fall vibes with our Pumpkin Spice Collection! Loving all the colours and especially our NEW Harbour colour!

I've added Kraft cardstock embossed with our new Botanical embossing folder which I used throughout my Workshop, specifically the Kraft half circles and Nectarine and Paprika cardstock leaves.

The leaves were cut from our *new Pumpkin Spice Digital Art Collection (X7272F) available directly from the Close To My Heart website!

Check out that detail in our Pumpkin Spice Wood Stickers (X7272E)...super thin and adhesive backed too.

Every Little Thing

There's so much to love in our new Seasonal Expressions Idea Book (Sept-Oct 2019) from Close To My Heart!

Soft Florals/feminine colours AND Fall/masculine colours that you can enhance further or even add to which I've discovered...we've created a Mix-In paper packet to extend and add to our current Every Little Thing AND Hawthorn paper suites! Check them out!

Every Little Thing

Hawthorn

Mix-In

This layout is a combination of our Every Little Thing AND Mix-In paper collections...added to that our newest Hawthorn Scrapbooking Stamp & Thin Cut set...which I am IN LOVE WITH!!!

I've used Sangria, Paprika and Goldrush inks to create these rock n'roll technique stamped leaves...super fun and they look real. Vellum hearts and leaves from the ELT collection and some doodled lines with our awesome new journalling pens!

It's the 15th of October already! Sheesh this month is going by faster than September did!!!

Lucky for you and me though...we have a new sketch to inspire you from Let's Scrap Sketches :)

So I started with this sketch, but once again I ended up somewhere completely different!!! 

Remember that everything is an inspiration or influence when you are creating and that you should enjoy the process and see where your creative time takes you...don't worry so much on everything being exact but instead let the inspiration spark your creativity :)

I'm using Falling for You from Close To My Heart...links at the end of the post...love me some FALL! (remember to click the images to get a close up look)

So the history about these photos goes back to when 

my son was first born. 

I used to get his sisters to give him a smooch on both cheeks for a photo...they used to think it was cute and Matthew used to as well.

Currently, Matthew no longer lets me get the shot I used to...no surprise seeing as he's almost 20! Maybe someday in the future he will think it's cute again LOL

I liked the idea of text running the length on the layout and will likely try this technique again...I used the September SOTM (stamp of the month) from CTMH, Feel So Blessed, to stamp the 'so thankful' sentiment...I LOVED that stamp.

All stickers and compliments were from the Falling for You Complements pack...great value.

Products Used:

X7223B - Falling for You paper pack

Blog Hoppin' with Poster Tidings in September!

Hello! Welcome to our Close To My Heart 'stamp of the month' Blog Hop! Hopefully you've had smooth sailing so far and have arrived here from Nancy Womersley's Blog...if this is your first stop, no worries as this is a circular hop and you will end up back here again once you've hopped on around to everyone's sites!

This month's stamp set is great! I've used the Fall themed one but am looking forward to creating with the Christmas one next...

This certainly was a basic layout design...I wanted to play with the 'Happy Autumn' stamp set and the Huntington papers... I love the rich Autumn tones in the papers and the inks...the sentiment was stamped in Autumn Terracotta, of course, and I've rocked some Red barn from the bottom up to add a little depth to the stamped sentiment. The Huntington assortment with these fantastic wooden buttons and canvas images were the perfect accessory to this page...now just need to take some new family fall photos to fill this page!!!

 Now head on over to Jean McNulty's Blog to see what she's done with this month's stamp, Poster Tidings!
