CTMH Dreamer card


Hello! Hello!  I checked the mail yesterday and found this fabulous stamp set in my post office box.  Thanks to my Director, Jessica Wilson!  I have been so busy lately and haven't had any ME time.  This morning I should be packing up my daughter's clothes to move them to my room, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it.  At the moment, I am supposed to be going to help load my sister's beds and fridge to bring them to our house.  They will be living with us for a little while.  I sat down this morning and thought, "I want to create!"  And, this wonderful fresh stamp set along with the Freshly Made Sketches #142 challenge this week just filled me with inspiration!

I hope you like my finished creation.  Now I think I can go back to all the tasks at hand (lol).  CTMH products I used for this card are:
White Daisy Cardstock
Dreamer Stamp Set
Balloon Ride Scrapbooking Workshop paper packet (print and cashmere cardstock)
Saddle Dye ink
Black Dye ink
Bonding Glue Stick

Note: The embellishments are from K&Co.

Happy Crafting!-Dari

CTMH You Make Life Wonderful layout


Hello! Hello!  Hopefully you can look past the terrible photography.  I didn't dare turn on the lights, because I wanted a few more minutes of peaceful bliss before the kids woke up.  The haze is due to light deficiencies (lol). 

I love this layout.  We created this last night at my monthly scrapbook club. The supplies we used were: (all CTMH)

White daisy cardstock
Balloon Ride Scrapbook workshop (papers, embellishments and stamp set)
Whimsy mini pigment ink set
Artbooking Cricut cartridge
Give A Lift stamp set
Sweet & Lovely Stamp Set (Artbooking Cricut bundle)
Desert Sand dye ink
Saddle dye ink
Slate dye ink
Sanding block
Bonding glue stick
Micro-tip scissors
Foam tape

Not CTMH products: colored pencils, journaling pen.

I have the ability to print out photos from my printer that look great so I have the advantage of being able to print photos at various sizes.  I know for standard pics, this layout may be a bit more difficult to work with, but it came to me in the wee hours of the morning, and I had to do it!!

Thanks for stopping by.  Good luck with your own creations. -Dari
