More Crop Shop Projects!

Here's a few more projects I completed with the new lines coming in from CHA for The Crop Shop :)

This is from the My Mind's Eye Alphabet Soup Line...

And... with the new Imaginisce Birthday line... which has THE COOLEST embellishments... look at those adorable "candles" and the springing "it's Party Time" They are very cool :)

New Pages and Mini Book using Imaginisce Apple Cider Line

I love being a part of The Crop Shop's Design Team!!! It's a fabulous store, I just wish it was closer!!! We had our meeting last week and got our new "assignments" One of my new lines is the FABULOUS Imaginisce Apple Cider Line... It's so wonderful for fall photos!!! Here's what I've come up with so far... I'm also using this line for my September Zutter Class at Ink About It in Westford...

Here's 3 layouts...

And the mini-book that I created...

The Crop Shop Projects... Using Making Memories Pitter Patter

How sweet is the Making Memories Pitter Patter line??? Just too sweet!!!  I was given this line for my August assignment for The Crop Shop, and drove down to drop them off yesterday... Also, very exciting news... The Crop Shop is going to be carrying Zutter products, and I'm going to be teaching classes there as well!! Yeah!!  Anyway, here are the 3 layouts and 2 cards that I created using the MM Pitter Patter (boy) line... Photos are my good friend Ryan's Godson :)

Easter

Here's a layout that I did recently... My friend Ryan teased me because it uses my QuicKutz Revolution, my new baby bug Cricut, AND my QuicKutz Silhouette :)  It's Die Cutting Overload :) The papers are Bo Bunny... as are the brads :) Orange is my favorite color, and these papers make me oh so happy!!! I still have a ton of this paper, but I've been hoarding it 'cause it's my favorite :) I'll have 3 more layouts to share tomorrow, as I'm dropping them off at The Crop Shop today (they were this month's DT work)

A fun and easy card

I like to have a stash of ready to go cards... That way, when I realize that I am about to miss someone's birthday, or I need a quick congratulations, or feel better card, then I have something I can use right away!  There isn't a sentiment on the card yet, 'cause I'm not sure where it's going to go :)  The pretty flowers are cut out of beautiful American Crafts patterned papers, and then I used a quick scallop punch and a couple of gems :)

Email... Should I Check Again??

I've been obsessively checking my email... Hoping to get one from a certain manufacturer that I'd love to create for... I'm positive at this point that they've already contacted their new designers, but until they're posted I can play the "what if" game in my head :) So, as I'm obsessively checking my emails again, I get one from Zutter advertising a sale on their FAB Cover Alls... I LOVE Cover Alls :) Anyway, I'm scanning through the email, and WOW! HEY!! That's MY project that they have included as an example :)  I so loved my time on the Zutter Design Team, and am thrilled to be able to still create the occasional project for them... Having my project included in their promotional email just made my day... And made the obsessive email checking worth it :) Here's a pic of the project that they used :)

Post this :)

I love making little post it note holders! They make a fun and easy gift for almost any occasion... Here's my latest!  I used 2 coasters, the Zutter owires (I think they're 3/4") and fun Bo Bunny papers that I've been holding on to for a while... I added a couple of ribbon scraps... The tree and alpha are QuicKutz Reuse

Upcoming Class at Ink About It

I'm so excited about this month's Zutter Class!!! There's still space if you want to join in the fun :) Just call the store and let them know!! Check out their website for more information www.inkaboutitonline.com   The class is from 6:30-8:30 on August 12, and when you leave class your book will be complete with the exception of photos and journaling!!!  I was inspired to make this book when I saw the new 7gypsies envelope books (which, of course, I had to buy 'cause I have a "mini book problem" :)  But I thought to myself, I could make that!! And that's what I did... There's 6x6 Chipboard Wood covers by Zutter, 6x9 manilla envelopes (cut down, I used both parts) and fab papers by Girls' Paperie... Here's just a couple of photos of the album :)

 

Inside each little envelope pocket is a journal card like these... Plus there's extra journal sections as needed
