Damask Divas Timberline Blog Hop

Welcome to Damask Divas Timberline Blog Hop!

My name is Traci Williams and I am an Independent Consultant with Close to my Heart.

If you just came from Jessica Wilson's Craftin' and Stampin' blog, you are in the right place.  To see the entire list of entries, visit Damask Divas Timberline Blog Hop.

For my Timerbline project, I did a 2 scrapbook pages, one themed for engagement and the other for a fisherman.

Products used were Timberline Paper Pack, Watercolor Pencils with Create-A-Shade Pearl Paint, Catch You Later Stamp Set and Slate Ink Pad.

For the Engagement Page, I used my Cricut Explore and Black Pen to write the fisherman/boat frame on the 12 x 12 Slate cardstock from Timberline Paper Pack.  I then cut up pieces of Background and Texture (B&T) Papers from Timberline Paper Pack to work for boat and fisherman's hat and clothes.  I then selected a stamp from Catch You Later Stamp Set and pre-cut with my Cricut from Art Philosophy Cricut Collection.  The wedding rings, hook and sentiment were all given to me by friends while I was making these pages at a crop, if you have never been to a weekend crop, they are amazing and you learn so much while there and the fun never ends!!

For the Fishing Page, I again used my Cricut Explore and Black Pen to add phrase at top of page.  I then colored in the lower wording with some watercolor pencils and then using a Q-Tip, I applied Create-A-Shade Pearl Paint over the top, what a surprise to see the reflective affect!  I again pre-cut a label from the Art Philosophy Cricut Collection for the stamped image and then I worked in the 1/2" border from the B&T Papers and 4 x 12" all using Timberline Paper Pack.

Just to give you an idea of how fun this paper pack is, I love to make quick Journal Books and pictured below is  6 x 6 page Journal Book I made using Timberline Paper Pack.  I also have enough papers left over to make a few cards and another 2 page scrapbook layout!

My project features a 6 x 6 Mini Album.  I used Ariana Paper Pack for cover and inside pages and Cricut Artbooking Collection to make cuts on pages.

Then I finished with simple ribbon around the spine to give it a special look and feel that complimented the final project.  Here is the before picture so you can get an idea of how it changed the entire look: (I wax the ends to keep the spiral together)

For my project I wanted to get a little crafty for a girls bedroom...

My girls just loved trinket boxes and we always had so much fun making them when they were younger...so in honor of my girls', I thought I would restart a tradition!

Using a drawer set and an open container, I painted both containers in Pink Acrylic paint and used the main page from the Lollydoodle Paper Pack to cover the containers after being painted.

I then used the Artbooking Cricut Collection to cut shapes to for both containers, added some gems from the Lollydoodle Assortment and whalla!!

It is so fun being creative and Lollydoodle paper pack offers so many fun ways to be creative, just like you will see on the Damask Divas Lollydoodle Blog Hop.

Damask Divas Ivy Lane Blog Hop

 

Welcome to Damask Divas Ivy Lane Blog Hop.  My name is Traci Williams and I am an Independent Consultant with Close to my Heart.

If you came from Cydney Fowler's Cydney Fowler Creations, you are in the right place. If you have jumped here and just discovered our blog hop, feel free to check the list at Damask Divas blog to find the complete list of blog hop participants.

My projects feature 2 cards from the Ivy Lane Card Workshop on the Go kit.

One showcases the beautiful papers that come with the kit and the other features a background made from one of the stamps that are included with the card kit.

 

This first card uses the B&T paper as the main background drop for the card then using strips of cardstock and the 1/2" border trim from the B&T Paper gave it a margin to the left side.  The gold metallic strip is the Shimmer Trim (self-adhesive) that comes with the kit and the smaller embellishments (sequence) is another part of the kit.  The stamps were inked in Cocoa and Blush and I used light marker of Cotton Candy set to highlight around "Life" on stamped image. 

The second card showcases a softer side that was generated from Blush and Cocoa inks with the lace stamp in kit.  Then I stamped the 2 flower stamps to make the floral embellishment in the upper left corner and I cut a shape from the Cricut Artiste Collection for the sentiment.  The added embellishments are from the kit and the center swirls and bling are from the Rosewood Mini-Medley Accents.

Now to Hillary Harris's heart for handmade blog to see her wonderful Ivy Lane project!  If you have jumped here and just discovered our blog hop, feel free to check the list at Damask Divas blog  to find the complete list of blog hop participants.

Mojo Monday MOJO326 Entry:

I chose to make a circular card featuring Close to my Heart B&T paper called "For Always".

The card features pages from the paper pack and 3D embellishment.  All pieces were cut from Close to my Heart's Cricut cartridge collections, Art Philosophy and Artiste.

With the season of love around the corner, thought now would be a good time to make a card suitable to celebrate love.

Simply called "Je t'Aime"
