Isabella - featured collection for August

 Hi and thank you for popping by my blog today!

This month, the CTMH featured collection is Isabella. I love the summery colours of this collection, but haven't created much with it yet!


Some of the projects I have created are pictured below. 

This gift topper was inspired by an idea shared by fellow CTMH Maker, Andrea Sherman. It was created using the Scalloped Circle Thin Cuts, Small Bow Thin Cuts & Stitched Circle Thin Cuts (retired). This was so much fun to create!


This card was created using the Isabella Cricut Collection with Bluebird, Carolina & White Daisy cardstock. 


For this Lip Balm box, I was inspired by an idea shared by Stamping with Marsha. This was created using Lemonade, Bluebird & White Daisy cardstock with Isabella paper and the Isabella Cricut collection. I finished it off with some Silver Embellishing Thread.


These Hand Sanitiser holders were created using Carolina, Bluebird, Lemonade & White Daisy cardstock. I added Isabella paper to the front and finished it with White & Gold Ribbon. 


For this card I used Blue Belle & White Daisy cardstock, Isabella paper pack, Silver Shimmer Trim, Stitched Brackets Thin Cuts, Z3963 - Isabella Scrapbooking Stamp & Thin Cuts, C1900 - Isabella cardmaking stamp set, Simple Serif Uppercase Thin Cuts, Blue Belle, Lemonade & Sage ink pads & Blue Belle Loose Sequins. 


This card was made using Blue Bell & White Daisy cardstock, Isabella paper pack, C1900 - Isabella Cardmaking stamp set, Simple Serif Uppercase Thin Cuts, Lemonade Shimmer Trim & Blue Belle Pearls.


Blue Belle & White Daisy cardstock, Blue Belle Glitter paper, Z3963 - Isabella Scrapbooking Stamp & Thin Cuts, C1900 - Isabella Cardmaking stamp set, Blue Belle ink pad, Versamark ink pad, White Embossing Powder & Blue Belle Pearls.


Blue Belle & White Daisy cardstock, Blue Belle Glitter paper, Z3963 - Isabella Scrapbooking Stamp & Thin Cuts, C1900 - Isabella Cardmaking stamp set, Blue Belle ink pad, Versamark ink pad & White Embossing Powder.

I have used Blue Belle on the last 4 cards as it is the retiring colour of the year and one of my favourites. 

These are all of the retiring colours 


Don't miss out on your favourite retiring colours. You can find them on my website - some items have already sold out, so don't delay!

Please come back again soon and see what is new and what I have been creating.

Stay safe & well.

Happy papercrafting
