January/February Catalog New Product Blog Hop

Welcome!

Thanks for visiting our new product blog hop!   If you haven't had a chance to view the new January/February idea book in action yet, take a peek at it here.

If this is your first blog hop, know that it is just one big loop of crafty, fun ideas for paper crafting as you visit each of the connected blogs.  If you are coming from Stefani's blog, you are on the right path.  If you are starting here, just look for the link at the end of my post to Wendy's blog, (and successive posts) to see which blog to visit next.

Today I am sharing two scrapbook layouts that I've made featuring papers from the Happiness Lives Here paper pack.

                       

Layout 1

 Here's a closer look at  embellishment details using Happiness Lives Here Stickers,Sapphire Glitter Paper, and a paper from the Woodgrain paper pack

found in the core catalog to repeat the woodgrain in the stickers.

Layout 2

The sun that is peeking out from behind the picture mat was stenciled

using a stencil from Set 3, Mustard seed distress oxide ink and 

a blending tool.The stitched scallop brackets at the bottom of the 

page are also new with this this catalog

Here's a closer look at some of the embellishments.  The very fine strip

of blue and white is the tiny thin strip that is still on the sticker sheet once 

you removethe blue and white striped strip from the sticker 

sheet - just trim it with scissors.

All of the products I've shared today are available through your Close To My Heart  Maker or you can visit my website.  The products featured today are available (while supplies last) through February 28th.  If there's something you like, be sure to get it soon because a lot of these seasonal items sell out quickly.

After seeing all the great ideas in this blog hop, you're going to want to visit the new idea book here.   

Thanks for stopping by today.

products from this new idea book on Wendy's blog.
