" You Are Here" New Cricut Cartridge is here, Hop with Scattered Hearts

 

It's Here! It's Here! You are Here!  With the recent release of the annual inspirations idea book from CTMH  you can purchase the brand new Cricut cartridge from Close To My Heart.  "You are Here" is so versatile you're going to love it.  Scattered Hearts team is having a blog hop today to show you just how wonderful this cartridge is along with some of our other cricut cartridges and give you tons of ideas...and yes we'll convince you that you must have one of these for your own collection.

 

You probably just hopped over from Lori's blog, Welcome.  Let's take a look at this girly card I created using the Cricut Cartridge "You Are Here" and featuring Close To My Heart's color of the Year " Bashful" . 

Our glitter paper cut like butter in the Cricut and it made it super easy to layer the feathers up.  The flowers were painted with our glitter pen so they could give off their own sparkles and glitter.  I really love the way this card turned out and all the new products I used from the new Close To My Heart Idea Book.   Be sure to check with your Close To My Heart Consultant to get your copy NOW!!!! 

Don't forget to add those little details to the inside of your card too.  I random stamped the background with bashful ink on bashful card stock and then stamped the sentiment on the white card portion.  Remember it's all in the those details.  That can really make your work stand out from the next.

Get Your Scary On

I have to admit I love Halloween.  I'm not sure why but I do, so I loved making this eerie card for Cheery Lynn Designs.  I thought the steampunk pocket watch die fit in perfect with the spider web border and even the little bird die that I tried to make look like a raven.   Of course, since it was one of my cards, I had to throw some flowers in.  Yeap flowers and creepy, LOL. Hope this will inspire you to start your spooky cards for the fall season.

Here is a list of all the dies used on this card. 

 

Spider Web Mesh Border B322

Daisy Strip B259

Ankara Lace Border B332

Birds of Earth and Sky B349

Pocket Watch w/ Angel Wing B362

 

See you next week,

 

 

 

Altered Mixed Media Necklace for KaiserCraft

Altered mixed media art is hot, so I thought I would put my spin on one of my KaiserCraft projects and create a necklace.  I made it from the current Hop Scotch collection.  All the charms were cut from paper, inked.  I then put a colored rivet in each and layered with a glue called Liquid Glass.  This is a product that is offered by Close To My Heart but you could use something  similar like Glossy Accents.  I let them dry overnight and then attached the jump rings, chain and toggle clasp.

I've worn this necklace once but you would not believe the comments I've received on it.  So much fun, so light to wear and really a show stopper.

Wildflowers in Bloom

It's Prickley Pear Monday and today I'm sharing some flowers...always nice when it's actually cold and rainy outside :).  I loved the colors in the paper collection Stella,  from Close To My Heart.  It will be available Feb. 1st. 

The flowers and the sentiment are both from Pricky Pear Clearly Hibiscus Flower set.  They also have the die to match.

# 6 Things I Loved & Learned - CTMH Convention - The Paper, the paper, the paper!

It's so exciting to be handed a new idea book and flip through the first few pages to see the new paper collections. I can guarantee you this one will not disappoint. I really love all four of the new collections but Olivia is just delicious. Yes, orange is my favorite color so this beautiful fall paper is right up my alley, but isn't it the most graceful paper you've ever seen. YUM. All leadership attendees were lucky enough to get to take home the kit of the month, OLIVIA. Don't worry you'll have your chance to get a hold of this kit / paper collection come September....think of all the beautiful fall layouts this collection will lend itself to. LOVE IT!!!

#2 Things I Loved & Learned - CTMH Convention - Fall/Winter Idea Book

Well heck, who doesn't get excited when you start flipping through a brand new Idea Book from Close To My Heart. It's chocked full of new and beautiful products and the new Fall/Winter 2010 is no exception. Do you love scrolling peacock feathers? glimmering embellishments? Elegant mistletoe for the holiday seasons? Adorable popping ghouls for Halloween? How about a new how to book that will have you spinning? Well if you said yes to any of these things then you are in for a treat with the new idea book. We were all lucky to receive our own copy of the new book at convention and I haven't put it down since then. I'll be giving you some exclusive sneak peeks but you can get your own copy of the new idea book by contacting me lorileng@bellsouth.net.
