Design Team - Echo Park Chillingsworth

Can you believe that Halloween is just around the corner?... I am just shocked when I go out to the store and the Halloween stuff is already marked down and the Christmas stuff has been up for some time now. 

This week I was given the oh so awesome Echo Park - Chillingsworth. Some really like it and others are unsure how they feel about it. I myself love it. 

Here is what I came up with. 

I cut the hunted house using the Silhouette and made sure to roof the house using the Chillingsworth paper. There are also some steps covered with the paper pack and stickers from the collection pack. 

I really enjoyed working with this paper pack that I might be able to squeak a few more things out of it.

Design Team......

Ok, so I finished this last week and I have been a little behind getting things up on the blogs and everywhere else. Sorry everyone. 

This card was made using the For the Record Documented by Echo Park. I also used the saying tag from Jillibean's new release. The banner tails were cut using Scrap Happy Die. 

This is a simple yet useful card for any occasion. 

Hope you enjoy this card. I can't wait to show you the project I'm currently working on for design team.... You are going to love it. 

Shoreline Design Team

Come sail away with me.

American Crafts Shoreline reminds me of days of summer. Relaxing in the sand, watching the sun set. With this card I was trying to get the feel of resting on the water in the middle of the ocean, with the sun high in the sky. Using Scrap Happy cardstock as my base and AC Shoreline as my background. I used the DIY Thickers and turquoise embossing powder from AC. All products used in making this card can be found at Scrap Happy Ohio, online and in the store. Make sure to stop by and check out all the new items from CHA too. 

After making my card I was still wanting to play around with this adorable paper. So I grabbed another piece of Scrap Happy cardstock and started playing. This is just a little brag book made with cardstock and pieces of the 6 x 6 stack of Shoreline.

WOYWW and Design Team Project

Can you believe how behind I am? I just have so much going on this week that I think my head might explode. I mean they are all good things, but I am really not sure how I am going to get them all done in time. 


I am late on posting my design team project for the week and now I am running late in posting my WOYWW. I had an appointment this morning and I'm trying to get my house in order because I am having my FIRST HOME GATHERING and workshop this Saturday! Can you tell I am excited and a lot nervous at the same time. 


I mean they are all my friends but there is always that thought in the back of your head that they are checking something out in your house that you didn't get a chance to pick up or wipe down..... Or is that just me. After my appt. I have been running around my house cleaning like a mad woman and I have gotten a lot done.


Anyhow on to the crafty stuff. So this week I will start with WOYWW. 

As you can see...... a lot. Since I'm getting ready for my workshop and I was working on my design team project. I have things for both on my desk. I was stacked up even further yesterday but really who cares. 

So I was thinking that I might try and get a little more organized after this week and see if I can get things together easier for workshops. We will have to see how that goes. 

My card using Echo Park - Sweet Day, Scrap Happy - Snowcone and the We R Memory Keepers - Sew Ribbon, this is the card that I came up with. I thought it was just a cute summery card with the pinwheels and the bright colors. Make sure to check out Scrap Happy Ohio for more from this line and all the Scrap Happy Exclusive products.

Wow, I was really talking on this one. For now this is what I have. I hope you enjoy your tour of desk. Make sure to stop at Julia's blog so you can start touring all over the world. 

Another "Sweet Day" with Echo Park

Another "Sweet Day" with Echo Park

Hi all, Mindy here. Yesterday I thought I had lost my mojo, but later in the day I guess I had found it. 

I was able to start and complete a full layout using Echo Park, Sweet Day collection. I just love the way it turned out. And I was able to incorporate the Scrap Happy Round Banner Trio die, going from 2 of the hot air balloons. The base of the layout is using Scrap Happy Spearmint cardstock. 

I had hand cut all the hot air balloons, clouds, and the hexagon pattern from the 12 x 12 pages that come in the collection pack. The whole collection is just wonderful with all the whimsical colors and bright cheery feel. 

Until the next time, make sure to stop by the store or check us out online. Blog, Online Store, FaceBook, Pinterest, and all the design team gals listed on the side bar. See you soon.

Stand Out

One can always Stand Out in the crowd, especially if you use the Crate Paper Storyteller Stand Outs.One a layout that I completed using the We R Memory Keepers Lucky 8's, on the bottom left and the center of the layout I used the Crate Paper Storyteller, Stand Outs. They help give that added dimension in a nice subtle way.

 With my card using the Lucky 8's again and Scrap Happy exclusive Banana Split cardstock I centered the flower with another Crate Paper Stand Out. It made of a nice touch.

When  I worked on my 

next card and I used 

Scrap Happy Gumdrop Green Carstock I used

some of the 6 x 6 Storyteller pad as the background papers behind the Stand Out to give the card a whole cohesiveness. I also edged the card and the cardstock pieces with  Scrap Happy exclusive  Jellybean Green Ink.

I was a busy bee, I tell ya.

With the next card. I used Scrap Happy Orange Fizz Cardstock for the base of the card and Crate Paper Storyteller 6 x 6 pad for the next layer. In the Storyteller collection there is a full sheet of cardstock embellishments and on this card I decided it was time to use them to the best of my ability. I also used the Stand Outs again in the top right corner and really enjoyed the way this card turned out.

 The last two cards are not using the Stand Outs, but are both using the Crate Paper Storyteller line. I have used the Sew Ribbon on both. All products used on all these cards and 


layouts can be found at Scrap Happy Ohio, online or in the store so make sure to get down there. Or up there. Stand Out from the crowd and shop local. 


Scrap Happy can be found all over the internet and soon will be on Twitter too. Right now make sure to check them out on their online store , their blog , and Facebook.


Until the next time. Have a WONDERFUL week. 


Blessing.
