Card-Making Workshop

I had two Make and Take projects at the 2012 Crop de Cure event this weekend:
Six lovely ladies had fun making my "you are so wonderful" card. A few of the girls decided to add different flares to their cards, and chose a different sentiment as well:

First Annual Crop de Cure Scrap-a-thon

I had an amazing 24 hours of scrapbooking! I met a lot of wonderful ladies that love scrapbooking as much as (if not more than) I do. Here are the 10 scrapbook layouts I was able to complete:

April/May Special

Yesterday was the first day of the DOTTY FOR YOU campaign. For every $35 you spend, you can purchase one set of this beautiful B&T paper for $5. I bought two of them because I love the designs of the papers! The back side of each of these papers has a monotone polka dot pattern that coordinates with the designs on the front of the papers.
Each paper packet includes 24 sheets (2 each of 12 designs). What can you make with this spring-inspired paper?  After you place an order, send me your project photos and I will showcase them here...  I'll be working on some projects with this paper next week!
Visit my CMTH website to order yours now!

Organizing my Cards

I've been wanting to organize my cards for quite some time now. Today I made time to make the dividers for my cards. I decided to use up my old Close To My Heart B&T paper packet samples, and all the cardstock is just stuff I had laying around, from a paper packet I bought at JoAnn's.

Here is what my card containers look like now:

The best part about my cards being organized is that now I can see what kind of cards I need to make next, so that I have some of every kind available.

Here are the actual dividers that I worked on today:




April Scrap Night

I have started many projects in the last few years, that I have yet to finish. Some of those projects are card workshops. I had a few sets cut up from different paper sets, and I chose those unfinished projects for this month's card-making workshop.
These are the cards I made at Kristina's house:

When I got home, my wonderful husband had already put both of the boys down for the night, and he was working on his remote control car on the dining room table. Instead of putting my things away, I decided to join him. I used up the cute green/blue/brown paper that Kristina gave to me (she was "stuck" and didnt want it anymore). My husband and I stayed up pretty late, but it was a nice evening for us both.
Here are the cards I made at home:
