This is a 5X7" card. I used Fern cardstock on the White Daisy card base. I used White Daisy cardstock and used a retired embossing folder and covered it in Fern Exclusive ink and ran it through the cuttlebug. I used ribbon from the Whimsy ribbon pack and also added coral reef sequins which are retired. The sentiment is from Card Chatter-Sympathy.

My second card is a 4X5.5" card. I used Crystal Blue cardstock. I used a Daisy White cardstock and Crystal Blue Exclusive ink that was put on a large block and then spritzed with water than stamped on the paper. The ribbon is from the Whimsy ribbon pack. The footprints are from the stamp set Baby Impressions, retired.

Thank you… now on to our hop! 

If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start here as this is a circular hop, but if you want to follow us across Canada then please start at the beginning and join Michelle Stewart . If you came from Janet McCormick then you are in the right place! 

Now on to my projects:

This hop is about your favorite products from the New Annual Inspirations and I was going to highlight the new Cricut cartridge Flower Market but I forgot my machine!! :( This is the problem with spending time at the lake all summer, you forget things so I will use what I did bring which is also one of my favorites.


The first project is a 4 X 5.5" card. There are twins expected to arrive any day now for a dear friends daughter so that is what has inspired this card.


I used the Whimsy Fundamentals Z3255, White Daisy card stock, Line it Up Cricut Bundle from the Flower Market collection Z3285, retired stamp sets-A1037 and D1561. I used a stampin' up stamp for the congratulations X2 and the stamp for the inside of my card, and Baby Boy Complements Z3273. I also used Sweet leaf ink for stamping.














The second card is also a 4 X 5.5" card and its a wedding card. I'm in need of some wedding cards as I've run out so this paper pack works well.

I used the Whimsy Fundamentals, Baby Boy Complements and Magical sequins. I used Crystal Blue cardstock and ink. I crinkled the love paper to give it a little dimension before sponging.











Your next stop on the Cross Canada Hop is Michelle Stewart

CTMH Featured Products Blog Hop Embossing Folders

CTMH Featured Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to our CTMH Featured Products Blog Hop. This week our featured

product is (Embossing Folders).

If you have just joined us you can start here and continue on, as this is a circular hop or if

you get lost along the way you can start at the beginning

with Annette  http://littlecropshop.blogspot.ca/2016/03/ctmh-featured-products-blog-hop.html

If you came here from  Catherine    http://catscrapbooking.com/2016/03/02/technique-blog-hop-embossing-folders/you are in the right place.

Close to My Heart now has 15 Embossing Folders. Many great designs. These are just a few.

 



Now on to my project:
My project is a 2 page layout. I started with one page and decided to do two but I don't think they really go together other than they are from the same paper pack. I don't know, just me maybe.
Anyway, this is a layout for our very first grand baby who will be arriving in the next few weeks. We are very excited.
I used the Georgie paper pack to make a soft baby layout with the Georgia Complements as well.
I used the 3 embossing folders that I have to give some texture to the pages.
Page 1

I used the recipe from p. 122 in the Annual Inspirations for my inspiration. I used Champagne, Whisper and Crystal Blue cardstock. The overlay in Whisper is from Artbooking.
Sweet Little Boy is from a Cricut subscription with my Explore. Welcome is an Artbooking Font, I think. I'm not really sure how to figure out the fonts for my CTMH cartridges on Explore.
Little One is from Artbooking. The little buttons are popped up with 3D tape.

Page 2

I used the same colors of cardstock as in the first page. I filled in some of the spaces in the overlay from Artbooking with the colors of cardstock and the paper pack. I used 2 of the embossing folders for this one. Using one for the border for the photo. The buttons from the complements are popped up with 3D tape as well.
I used the zip strip to kind of join the two pages together.
