I am so happy with the way these pages turned out.  I have loved using the Heartstrings Papers and these were the last scraps left in the pack!  I think that is one of the greatest joys of using CTMH paper packs... I actually USE it all and don't have to store it.  I usually make 8-12 pages from one pack if I add in some extra card for page bases or, as in this case, work directly on a CM album page.

Ladybird, Ladybird...

One of the things I love best about being part of Close To My Heart is the open sharing of ideas between consultants across the globe.  Today's little card was inspired by a lady who lives in Ohio, USA.  So, thank you Bobbi Frappier Dailey!  I adore ladybirds.

Ladybugs - Page 001

The ladybirds are made using the banner stamps from the Year Noted kit.  I embossed the Cranberry card using the Hearts embossing folder and the XOXO comes from January's Stamp of the month.  I have this card as a kit for all my lovely lad…

This Moment - Girls night out

sept-2-pages-page-007
Here is the second layout for our Little Black Dress night.  It follows on from Friday's post.  A large group of young women (I include myself here because I felt young that night) on the dance floor seem to spend more time taking photos of themselves than dancing!  Perhaps that is more a reflection on the quality of the music than the individuals.  Anyway, the result was a set of fun photos taken at awkward angles but filled with smiles.

This page features heartstrings papers, This Moment and You're the Bomb stamp sets. This page features heartstrings papers, This Moment and Y…

Brushed WOTG Layout

sept-2-pages-page-007
Mike and I travelled to England in July to attend the wedding of 2 special friends.  We had such fun!  One of the most amusing parts of the reception was the photo booth.  The beautiful bride, Shonny, sent us some prints taken in the photo booth which I love.  I thought this layout  was the perfect home for these photos.
