Festive Friday Blog Hop

Welcome to another post on the Festive Friday Blog Hop!! If you came from April's blog then you are in the right place! This is a circular hop, you can start anywhere and just work your way around (you will find a list of all the participating blogs at the bottom of this post). Hope this will spark your creativity!!

I re-created the advent calender in our Holidays From The Heart Gift Guide on page 3. I did change a couple of things to suite my needs...I didn't have the Sparkle & Shine Assortment so I made my own flags and a rosette from the Artiste cartridge. I also did not have all the washi tape that was used...I made due with what I had on hand!! Because that what we crafters do right?!

Festive Friday Blog Hop

Welcome to another post on the Festive Friday Blog Hop!! If you came from April's blog you are in the right place! This is a circular hop, you can start anywhere and just work your way around (you will find a list of all of the blogs at the bottom of this post). Enjoy!!

I wanted to share what I have been creating this past week. Everyone I know is going to get one of these Holdiday Deco Boxes for Christmas!! If you don't recognize the design on the front...its one of the overlays on the new Artbooking Cricut Cartridge! Just another way you can use this amazing cartridge!!



I used a glass craft box purchased at any craft store. Mine came from AC Moore, they were only $5 and I bought 6!! LOL I cut the vinyl out with my cricut machine and used the overlay on page 76 at 6 1/2" real dial size. Added a string of lights for the inside and some holiday ribbon around the outside to make it the complete package!! 

Items I used:
A glass craft box (bought at local craft store)
Cricut vinyl (I used black but you can use any color)
String of Christmas lights (I used a white strand of 100)
Holiday ribbon (bought at any craft store)

CTMH Festive Friday Blog Hop

Welcome to my second posting in the CTMH Festive Friday Blog Hop!! If you have come from April's blog you are in the right place!!

Christmas is my FAVORITE holiday!! I wanted to create an album where I could scrapbook all of my favorite traditions, recipes, and decorations throughout the holiday season. So at the moment its empty since its only September, but I can't wait to fill it with my favorite things for this upcoming season!







I used the My Creations Kraft 3-Ring Album, covering the spine with Ruby Cardstock, and used our Geometric Backgrounds stamp set. The Jute Ribbon and Red Shimmer Trim were layered to run down along the edge of the Ruby Cardstock.. I covered one of the frames from Dimentional Elements Snapshots with Chocolate Cardstock, the background of the frame is B&T paper from Huntington, and cut the leaves out of Olive cardstock and the berries from Red Shimmer Trim. December was cut from the Artiste Cricut Cartridge and our brand new Green Glitter Paper. Memories was also cut from Artiste in Colonial White cardstock and then covered with Liquid Glass to give it the glossy look. Houndstooth Alphabets were used for 2013 and then inked with Bamboo Ink. The shapes were cut with the Artiste Cricut Cartridge in Olive and Bamboo Cardstock and then some Ruby Chevron Ribbon tied in a knot.

To purchase any of the items I used on this album click on the items above or visit my website www.theresamiller.ctmh.com. Now hop on over to Brenda's blog and thanks for stopping by!!

Welcome to the CTMH Festive Friday Blog Hop!!
 
If you have just came from April's bog you are in the right place! This is my very first blog hop and I'm so excited to take this creative jump!!
 
 

My entry this month is this snowflake card for the winter season! I used the BRAND NEW Frosted paper pack, Crystal Blue cardstock,  Colonial White cardstock, the NEW Minis Single Snowflake stamp, Swirls Around stamp set, Flakey Friends stamp set, Sparkles,  Whisper, Twilight, and Cotton Candy ink pads.



I started with a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card base, I cut my Frosted B&T paper at 5 1/4 x 4", 3 x 3", and 2 1/4 x 2 1/4", and I cut my Colonial White at 3 3/4 x 5", 2 3/4 x 2 3/4", and 2 x2". I used second generation stamping for the back ground with Whisper ink and one of the Swirls Around stamps. Then randomly stamped snowflakes from the Single Snowflake and Flakey Friends stamp set with Twilight and Cotton Candy ink. The sentiment was stamped with Twilight from Flakey Friends as well. I added three sparkles to three of my snowflakes to give it some glitz!! To purchase any of these items please visit my website or click on the items listed below!

Mastering the Blog World

So I've decided to give this blog another chance! It seems to take me an hour to do one simple thing! I hope I'm not the only one out there! But I did find some great blogs that help you design your own blog. So far my favorite has been http://thecutestblogontheblock.com. There are so many backgrounds, templates, banners, gadgets, and more to help you design your own personal blog. So far tonight I have replaced my old background, added a cute "scrappy-looking" title and centered it, and now I will find out if my signature that I designed works. My next task is to add some cute "Follow-Me" buttons for all the social sites!

Re-posted this because my signature didn't show up. It's fixed!! Yay!! I think I'm getting the hang of this!
