CTMH Australasian In Full Bloom Blog Hop

 

Hi & welcome to our CTMH Australasian In Full Bloom blog hop. If you came from Alison's blog - Scissors Paper Heart, you are in the right place. If not, I hope you will continue on our blog hop to see what the other participants have created using this collection.  

This collection has been very popular and I have enjoyed creating with it! These are just some of my projects!

The left page of this layout was inspired by the one on p14 of the March-April catalogue. It was created using Avocado, Glacier & White  Daisy cardstock, In Full Bloom paper & stickers, In Full Bloom Die Cuts. I added some Glacier ink on the page under some of the elements to add that little something!

This layout is from one of the NSD workshops available now. It was created using White Daisy, Lagoon, Avocado & Glacier cardstock. I added some Black Shimmer trim to my page. 

This box in the shape of the Letter 'M' was created from a file I got from Jennifer Maker. It was fun to make and will be great to fill with some goodies for Mother's Day.

The In Full Bloom collection is available till the end of April '22 WSL. You don't want to miss out, so make sure you contact your CTMH Maker. If you don't have a Maker & live in Australia, you can contact me here! I would love to help you. Don't forget to check out all the specials available now - including the one I used to create the 2nd layout I shared.

I would love you to leave a comment before you continue on to see what Dannii of Scrappy Chicks has created using the In Full Bloom collection.

Stay safe & well!

Happy papercrafting!

S2204 - Message in a Bottle Australasian Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

 

Hi & welcome to our S2204 - Message in a Bottle Australasian Blog Hop. If you arrived from Doris' blog, you are in the right place. If you just happened by, thank you for stopping. I hope you will continue on our blog hop to see what the others have created using this fabulous stamp set. Both of the cards I am sharing are quite simple, but I do love this stamp set and know I will use it lots. 

For this first card, I stamped the bottles using Black Memento ink and the corks in Toffee ink. I coloured the stars in the tall bottles using Lemonade Shimmer Brush. For the middle bottle, I stamped the heart in Versamark Ink and used Gold Embossing Powder. I used Gold Embellishing Thread to 'hang' the bottles, which were added using Thin 3D Foam Tape.

For my second card, the bottle & cork & sentiment are stamped the same as the first card. I added some shimmer to the card under the bottle using the Gold Shimmer Brush. The bottle was added using Thin 3D Foam Tape.  I finished off the card using a Journalling Pen to add 'stitch' lines around the edge.

 The April Stamp of the Month - Message in a Bottle (S2204) is available till the end of April 2022 only. You can get it for just $9.00 with a qualifying order, or for FREE if you are a VIP with a qualifying order. Or you can purchase it for $34.00. You can get the details from your CTMH Maker. If you don't have a Maker and live in Australia, I would love to help you. My contact details can be found on my website. 

Don't forget to check out all that is available and the great specials too!

I would love you to leave a comment before you continue on our blog hop to see what Alison has created.

Stay safe & well!

Happy papercrafting.
