Dream Pop Blog Hop

Welcome to the "My Favorite {CTMH} Things" Blog Hop!  

Our Playing With Paper team is sharing artwork featuring some of our favorite products from Close to My Heart. If you have come here from Jayma's blog, then you are on the right path. 

To celebrate National Scrapbooking Day (Month) today, 

we are featuring the 

Dream Pop Paper Pack. 

I have created two projects using this paper along with various CTMH products. Truly, it is a pop of fresh, bold, and vibrant colors that will definitely cheer you up and put a smile on your face.

Dream Pop Projects

In stamping the speech bubble "Hi!" (Word Balloon stamp set included in the Cricut Artiste Collection), I used the Lagoon pigment pad, heat embossed it with a Clear Detail Embossing Powder, and embellished it with sparkles (Brown and Tan Assortment).

"Hi!" Card

This is a "Daiso" frame (Japanese Dollar store), I just love this particular sheet of paper that I used it not only on my card but as a background for my stamped sentiment from the Scrapbook Statements - Poets Stamp Set.

"People will forget what you said,
people will forget what you did,
but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Happy Easter Sunday!

I had a blast on my Spring Vendor show last Saturday. 

 

I offered a FREE "Make and Take" Easter Card and would like to share it with you today.

Sentiment: It's what inside that counts, Happy Easter

This card is so simple and very easy to create. I had my papers pre-cut and all the materials gather on one corner of my table (I used the Art Philosophy cartridge to cut the Twilight-stamped eggs in the background). The youngest card-maker I had on my booth is 7 years old and she made her own in a breeze!

I used a pattern from CTMH's Make it from Your Heart so the instructions and assembly are all ready for me.

And here is the stamp set

I wish you a great, Easter Egg-citing day! I'm off to Fox Hollow Farms with my family! Be sure to check out tomorrow for my April treats for you! Blessings!
