Scallop Borders with Mayberry Workshops on the Go™ Stamp Set

Sophia Stamp Set

Well this is more than a card it's also a memory! My little grandsons and I were doodling one afternoon and I just drew flowers all over with water color pencils...thought it couldn't hurt to turn it into a card. The sentiment is from the stamp set that comes with the Sophia Workshop on the go. It's my current favorite...you can see in the "June" layout below the bird and some of the other stamps that come with it. What's included in a Workshop on the Go? Lots...for $29.95, you get:

• Exclusive stamp set
• Level 2 paper pack (that's 12 sheets of double sided patterned paper and 10 sheets of card-stock)
• Workshop Guide (instructions for two layouts and 10 cards)
• Colonial White Waxy Flax*
• Pink Button Assortment (72!)*embellishment vary by kit theme

You can make sooooo much with one of these great kits!

You & Me kit---National Scrapbooking Month Special

I have all the details and more layouts in a recent posts below about this wonderful National Scrapbooking Month special. I made this layout of my son following the directions that come with the kit. The only thing I did different was use a different size photo, and since I like to stretch my supplies as far as possible; I cut out the B&T paper that would normally be wasted underneath my pic. The kit comes with instructions and supplies to make two layouts but so far I've already made 4 substituting a little here and there!

This stamp set that comes with the kit could not have been more perfect these pics of him in Nottingham...following his dreams!

May Projects....

For May in my Hostess Clubs we'll be using the Sophia Workshop on the Go kit to make our "June" layout. It's my favorite in our current catalog. I was trying to order items in the order of our projects but this one I knew I had to have as soon as I could get my hands on it. The colors, the design of the paper, the pink buttons...but most of all the stamp set--I love it all! In fact, I've already used two packs of the paper and I just may need another one!

CTMH May Special, You & Me Kit, Norah's First Thanksgiving

Here's little Norah's first Thanksgiving pictures. When I first saw the May CTMH special You & Me kit I thought, hey I think those polka dots match the turkey I cut out a couple months ago on my Cricut using the Create a Critter cartridge...and look....it did match! The turkey is cut out of Bamboo, Smoothie, Cocoa and Honey cardstock. I added dots to his first layer of feathers using the period from the small Chocolate Alphabet set. The You & Me kit comes with instructions for two layouts but I switched it up a bit, by doing that I was able to use the polka dot paper to make 3 different 12x12 layouts! I also used some B&T paper from our Mayberry kit. You will be seeing a few more items from this very nice kit--I'm streeeetchiiiiinng it as far as possible because I like it so much, at least it's nice to have a stamp set to use and use and use even though the rest of the kit supplies will run out.
