PS26 #13: 4th of July LO + News!

Happy Saturday!

I have some great news to share!!! I'm in the EyeConnect Crafts Design Team!!! Check out the blog to see the other DT members - click HERE.

And...one more layout for my Project Scrapbook26...this is PS26 #13! I'm half way through!

I'm working ahead this time...since I'm so behind! haha

This is for the photos I'll take on July 4th...usually we have people from church come over for BBQ. Then, we go to the park to watch fireworks.

I created this LO based on the Twistback Thursday Sketch #6 at SketchNScrap (left page). 

And I added the Project Life style for the right page...since I promised to make one with embellishments...

This one has a banner from Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge, washi tape, punched patterned paper (on foam tape) and tone-on-tone stamped "fireworks":

Washi tape and stamped embellishment (on foam tape): 

Punched patterned paper (on foam tape) and tone-on-tone stamps:

PS26 #12: My Crush Blog Hop

(I completely forgot to post this...)

Hello,

Welcome to the CTMH Summer Crush Blog Hop!

If you came from Nikka's Blog, you're in the right place!
If you want to start from the beginning or get lost along the way, see the complete list HERE.

This post is part of my Project Scrapbooking26 (PS26#12)!
I planned to post pocket scrapbook pages with embellishments today,  but since I'm participating in the CTMH My Crush Blog Hop, I'll have to postponed that...sorry! =(

This will also be my last Blog Hop with my fellow CTMH consultants...I'll drop as a hobbyist consultant end the month...I purchased too much stuff! Now I have to use it up! =)

For this hop, we're using My Crush books and Assortments...here's my project:

I'd like to link it to:

Word Art Wed #186: Anything Goes/Family Friendly

I used the BlueBird book and Assortments (layered papers and stickers).
Shapes and "Oh Happy Day" card were cut with Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge. I heat embossed the flowers in Neon Yellow and the branches in green. I added paper flowers and pearl gemstones on flowers.
I trimmed the 3x4 card a little bit, rounded the corners again and sprayed it with a metallic green mist.
Black patterned paper mat was cut with Artbooking Cricut cartridge and I added some silver washi tape here and there!

PS26 #11: Pocket Scrapbooking (2 pages)

Happy Saturday, crafty friends!

Today is the day I post for my Project Scrapbooking 26!
If you have "no" time to scrapbook, these 3x4 or 4x6 cards might just be your life saver!

I have 2 pages to share with you:

I'd like to link one of them here:

Word Art Wednesday #184: Anything Goes Family Friendly

No embellishments here! Just photos and cards! It takes more time to print the photos, than to put them together! =)
Next time, I'll share some pages with some embellishments...

Have a nice weekend!
