Hey Guys! 

Amy here from Paisley's Playhouse!

I thought I would show you that you don't always have to use your CTMH kits the way that they were untended. For example Scaredy Cat is Halloween paper. I have been making some really fun cards with it but not everyone celebrates Halloween or maybe you just are not really into Halloween. So what can you do? How can you use this adorable paper anyway? Well our paper is double sided so you can use this adorable paper in all sorts of other projects. Here are a few that I came up with.

My little trio - I plan on using them for gift bags.


A baby card: I random stamped the little flower. I also stamped the little baby stamp 3 times once in black and twice in pear. Then I layered it. I also used the Zip Strip for my pattern paper on this card. I love the way it turned out.



A birthday card: I took our ruler and used the top of it to make a little stitch pattern then connected the dots. Looks like I drug out the sewing machine but nope just a black marker.




A just because card: I stamped that cute little camera 3 times and cut out the base and the lens. Then I colored in the Gold Gem to make it orange. I used my Copics but you can use your ShinHan Twin Touch marker for a better match to the CTMH cardstock.




I love little 3 x 3 cards they are quick and they are so fun to make. I hope you enjoyed this little set and came up with some ideas on different ways to use your paper.


Supplies*:
Cardstock - Colonial White (1388), Sunset (X5758), Black (1386), Slate (X5930), Pear (X5764)
Ink - Black (Z2105), Pear (Z2197), Cotton Candy (Z2193), Lagoon (Z2195), Sunset (Z2191)
Stamp Sets - Artiste Birthday (D1529), Sightseer (C1534), New Arrival (C1501), and retired set Bowl of Cherries
Pattern Paper - Scaredy Cat (X7185B)

Hello everyone! 

Amber here from the Sew-Ink Blog!!

I'm back with my last Halloween themed layout using this fun and fabulous collection from Close To My Heart called Scaredy Cat. You can check out my first three layouts using this collection HERE, HERE, and HERE. To create this layout I started by following a sketch from Citrus Twist. I didn't stray to far away from the original sketch but I did change a few things like the stitching and I used one photo instead of two.


I started by adding a large strip of pattered paper to the right side of my 12 x 12 Thistle cardstock. Then I layered my photo with a few different sheets of patterned paper from the collection, some Colonial White cardstock, and a stapled sticker from the coordinating sticker sheet. For my title I spelled out "Trouble's Brewing" with some orange alphabet stickers from Glitz Designs and then added the little striped crow from the Scaredy Cat Complements sticker sheet. Isn't he cute?
 

I hope you enjoyed my fun little Halloween themed layout today. I had so much fun creating all different kinds of layouts with this collection. Next month I will be creating all my layouts with Close To My Hearts Pathfinding Paper Pack and Pathfinding Complements Chipboard Sheets. It's a super cute collection and I can't wait to start crafting with it, you can check it out HERE.

Hey All!!! Amber here from the Sew-Ink Blog!!!

Hello everyone! Today I have a two page 12 x12 layout to share made with Close To My Hearts Scaredy Cat Collection. I used a fun little 2 page sketch called "Disappearing Act" from Close To My Hearts Magic How To Program. 


For the left side of the page I used a 12 x12 sheet of Sunset cardstock as my background, a large sheet of patterned paper, and a 5 x 7 photo mat. To the left side of my cardstock I added the square stickers that spelled out "Halloween" for my title. I also added the the broom riding witch and a few stars from the Scaredy Cat Complements sticker sheets to the upper right side. You can see a close up below.


For the right side of my 2 page layout I used another 12 x12 sheet of Sunset cardstock for my background. Then I added two different sheets of patterned paper to the bottom half of my layout, added my three 5 x 3 photo mats and a 5 1/2 x 2 journaling square. For the 5 1/2 x 2 journaling square I used a vellum quote and adhered it with two stickers. For the upper right side of my page I stamped a large spiderweb in black ink, added the large haunted house sticker, and added two googly eyed bats. I think the little googly eyes give the bats some character.


 When I started this two page layout, the main things I knew I wanted to use were these amazing large sized stickers from the Scaredy Cat Complements sticker sheets. I just love how fun and versatile they are and they really add to a layout.


Supplies: CTMH Cardstock- Sunset, Colonial White / CTMH Paper Pack- Scaredy Cat / CTMH Sticker Sheet- Scaredy Cat Complements / CTMH Stamp Set- D1319 Creepy Cobwebs / CTMH Ink Pad- Black / Vellum Quote / Mini Google Eyes

Hey All!!!

Amy here from  Paisley's Playhouse!!!

Are you scared? Don't be it is a cute kind of Spooky!

I have been wanting to try a tone on tone card for a while now. I always see people do it and then either forget about it or don't think I can pull it off.  Now that I pulled it together and tried it I know I will be trying it again! I really like how it came out.

I took an overlay from the Artbooking cartridge and cut it down to fit on my 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" standard card base. I cut it at 5 3/4" originally I was thinking I might do a sqare card but decided against it. I made spooky 7 1/2" because at 5 3/4" it was a little smaller than I wanted it. Don't forget on the Artbooking cartridge everything is meant to go together that is why it is set so large. I could have also set the real dial size to 1 1/2".  Then I added the little tag flag in the corner and fancy...and boy do I mean fancy cut the spider out. Wala...this card came together in a snap.

Here is the inside.


I will leave you with a little closer up view of the front of the card. I hope you have a great day! Get out there and make some spooky cards of your own!


Supplies*:Cardstock - White Daisy (1385)
Pattern Paper - Scaredy Cat (X7185B)
Complements - Scaredy Cat (X7185C)
Cricut Cartridge - Artbooking (Z1686)

Hey All!!!

Amber here from the Sew-Ink Blog

Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing another fun themed Halloween 12 x12 layout that I created with Close To My Hearts Scaredy Cat Collection. I just can't get enough of this spooktaclaur collection, once I started creating with it I couldn't seem to stop. For my layout today I used a cute little sketch from Citrus Twist as my starting point. You can check out the sketch HERE.


For my title I added the large "EEK" sentiment from the coordinating kraft sticker sheet (you can check out a close up of all the stickers below). I just LOVE these cute little stickers, they are super sticky and match perfectly with the patterned paper. I also added a kraft banner, a few cardstock triangles, a thistle circle, some black sequins and a few bitty sparkles along the left side of my layout.


I really love 12 x 12 layouts that feature smaller photos, it makes it so much easier to show multiple photos. My two photo sizes for this layout are 3 1/2 x 2 1/2. I added a few embellishments towards the bottom right of my page to go along with all the embellishments I added to the top left. Thanks for visiting!

Supplies: CTMH Cardstock- Black , Kraft, Slate, Sunset, Thistle, Colonial White / CTMH Paper Pack- Scaredy Cat / CTMH Stickers- Scaredy Cat Complements / Black Sequins / Bitty Sparkles- Close To My Heart

For the month of September I will be sharing multiple layouts I created with this super cute Halloween collection. Check it out below!

Hey All!!! Amy here from Paisley's Playhouse!



You know one of my favorite things about Close to my Heart is how everything coordinates together! This makes my life simpler when I am trying to create a quick card however it can also make your life simpler if you are just getting started and have limited supplies. The card below have very little stamping and I only used Black Ink on that little Happy stamp.

Now I love a card that has a quilted pattern I have been doing cards like this forever and it is a great way to use up your scraps! Well I thought it would be super fun to use the word Halloween from the Complements.


The inspiration from the card came from Pattern 21 of Make it from the Heart but if you look at that pattern you can see that I changed it up. They had 12 little squares and I only have 9. Don't be afraid to just use the pattern for a starting point, make it your own. I do the same thing when I get card ideas from the Annual Inspirations book. You might also notice that I changed some of the letters around from the complements. Since Halloween has two L's and two E's I changed it up so that I would have the orange on each line, I feel like that is more pleasing to the eye.


I always like to finish out my cards by bringing in some of the same elements from the front of the card, here I brought in that same background paper and added that spider web. The spider web can be found on page 76 of the Artiste cartridge.


Supplies*:
Cardstock - Black (1386), Cashmere (X5932)
Pattern Paper - Scaredy Cat (X7185B)
Complements - Scaredy Cat (X7185C)

Ink - Black (Z2105)
Cricut Cartridge - Artiste (Z1790)
Inspiration - Make it from your Heart Vol 2 - pattern 21 (9042)

Embellishments - Black Waxy Flax (retired), Sparkles Assortment brown & tan (Z1753) 
Other -  Tag (I have a cut basket when I use my cricut I toss what I don't use in there)
*All supplies are from Close to my Heart unless otherwise noted.
