September Playgroup - Featuring CTMH Scaredy Cat Collection

I know, I know - you're thinking, "Halloween, already?"  The kids just barely went back to school, but it won't be long and they'll be telling you what they want to be for Halloween. My next scrapbook playgroup is on Friday, September 19 (just a couple of days before the first day of fall so it's not so bad), and we will be making these layouts to get you in the mood for candy corn and apple cider.  Read below for a list of items needed to create your own pages.

February Playgroup - Babycakes

I think the designers at Close To My Heart hit a home run with the Babycakes paper collection (Item G1068**).  It almost makes me wish I had some grandbabies to take photos of and scrapbook. Not quite though.  I've decided to change the layouts a bit to make them a little more generic in case you're like me and don't have photos of little ones.  If your kids are grown, but their baby pictures are still in boxes or on the computer hard drive then this is the motivation you need to get started. *chuckles*

These layouts really take advantage of the Cricut Art Philosopy Collection. I've also added the whimsical gift boxes die cut which is on the Cricut Artbooking cartridge.

You can create these pages at my next playgroup on February 7th in Mesa. Or you can participate long distance and supplies will be mailed to you.  You must order supplies by January 15th. Contact me for details. **The complete workshop kit (G1068) will retire after January 31, 2014.

Have a memorable day!

January Playgroup - ProPlayer

These scrapbook pages were created using the ProPlayer Workshop On The Go (G1067).  They're great pages to use for the men in your life.  Use them for birthday parties, sports, or "just hanging out."  I've added Irresistable Hexagon Shapes (Z1858) for a little more pizzazz.  This complete kit with the exclusive stamp set is only available through February 28th.

Have a memorable day,
Sheila

Close To My Heart Laughing Lola Workshop on the Go

For our September Playgroup we are creating 2 two-page layouts featuring Laughing Lola workshop-on-the-go (Item G1065) from Close To My Heart. I think these photos of my little ballerina work well with this paper.  The workshop includes a coordinating assortment of gems and satin paperclip bows as well as black hemp and a schnazzy stamp set.  I used the shiny sequins and buttons included in the black mini medley accents (Item Z1865). 

 

 

Layout #2 from Make It From Your Heart Vol. 2, pg. 8
Cricut cut is from Artiste, Card 11"

Optional Layout you can create with your left over paper, plus one black cardstock.

Have a memorable day,
