CTMH Hillside Cottage Australasian Blog Hop

 



Hi & welcome to our CTMH Hillside Cottage Australasian Blog Hop. If you arrived from Dannii's  Scrappy Chicks blog, you are in the right place. If you just happened by, welcome. I hope you will continue on our blog hop by clicking on the link at the end of my post.

I just want to say, I wasn't sure about this collection when I first saw it, but as they say, don't judge a book by the cover! Once I took the paper out of the pack and started playing with it, I realised there is lots to love about the collection! So far, I have only had a chance to make this one layout as an example for my retreat this weekend.


For this layout, I used Pattern #8 from the Make it From the Heart Vol 5 idea book. In the book, the pattern features a circle under the photo on the right side, but I just cut a square. To create my layout, I used White Daisy cardstock along with the Hillside Cottage paper pack and stickers. I added some 3D Foam Tape under some of the stickers for added dimension. I am really happy with how it turned out.

The Hillside Collection is available till June 30th WSL from your CTMH consultant. If you don't have a consultant and live in Australia, you can get yours from my website. Don't forget to check out all the fabulous specials available while you are on my website under the promotions tab.

I would love you to leave a comment before you continue on our blog hop to see what Shaunna from Passionate about Pages has created using the Hillside Cottage collection.

Stay safe & well.

Happy papercrafting.

May update

I am sorry I have been MIA for the last couple of months! But I am back now and will endeavor to post regularly again!

We have a brand new catalogue available now! Check it out here!



There is so much to share, but I will start by sharing a couple of projects I created using the May Stamp of the Month - S2105 (Flowers for You). 

I have been busy preparing for my upcoming retreat - just 10 days away now! These are just a small number of the projects we will be sharing. For my page layout I used White Daisy & Sapphire cardstock, You Are Enough paper pack, Blue Belle glitter paper, S2105 - Flowers for You stamp set, Sapphire, Peach & Blue Belle ink pads. The stamp set was used to add an extra border to my layout.


This card was created using  Peach & White Daisy cardstock, You Are Enough Paper Pack, S2105 - Flowers For You stamp set, Sapphire & Peach ink pads  & Gold Embellishing Thread.
And this card was created using Peach & White Daisy cardstock, You Are Enough Paper Pack, S2104 - Scandinavian Folk Art Greetings stamp set, Sapphire, Sangria & Peach ink pads. I added dimension by using 3D Foam Tape under the stamped image and sentiment.
