Roxie Cards
Here's just one of the dozen cards I made using the Roxie Workshop on the Go papers, stamps (and a few other stamps too), and black hemp.
I'm lovin' Roxie! It can definitely be girlie or guy-like!
Here's the slideshow of all 12 cards and the stamped envelopes.
Glad you stopped to visit! Happy week, happy scrappin'!

Wonderland Clear Card - H2H Challenge
For the "CASE" Heart2Heart challenge this month, I chose to CASE Pamela O'Connor's pretty circle card shown here with the cute giraffe:
Thanks for your inspiration, Pamela! I love all your paper patterns and elements!
At the top of my post is my simple winter version using a CTMH clear acrylic card and the Wonderland WOTG papers and stamps (mittens and sentiment). It's definitely "mind over matter" here as I scrap in 102 degree heat -- today's heat index is 114 degrees! The AC feels great set at 81!
First I ran the clear card through the Cuttlebug to emboss snowflakes on its front.
I cut the snowflake using CTMH's Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge. A Jingle brad holds the mittens onto the snowflake. Inks are Cocoa and Twilight. I "stamp-rolled" the canvas button to show yet another snowflake.
I LOVE clear cards & will be selling this one, along with others, at a September benefit at Purina Farms in Gray Summit, Missouri for a dog rescue mission.
Thanks for visiting my blog! Happy scrapping!

A Wonderland Trio
Wonderland is one of the new paper packets in Close To My Heart's new Fall/Winter Idea Book. It has beautiful, peaceful blues, browns, whites, and lavenders in its packet, and for these cards, I used the papers in the Workshop On The Go (WOTG), along with Twilight and White Daisy inks. (Click photo to enlarge.)
These are quick, clean, and simple cards basically using blocks of colored papers and a few embellishments. I cut the snowflakes from white cardstock using the new Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge available from CTMH--one of the exciting new products in the new Fall Idea Book!
I like to stamp the inside of the card and the envelope to coordinate ... two examples are here. Be artsy and let your stamps "float" off the paper. I usually like to use uneven numbers of objects when designing too.
Dimension can be created so many ways yet be fun and simple: Here I layered papers, inked edges of papers, and used foam squares behind die cut objects to make them pop off the base paper.
It was fun to work with snowflakes and cool colors on this 102 degree day in the Midwest!
DH told me I should go jump in the lake when I finished ... so I did!
CTMH products I used:
Wonderland WOTG papers
Twilight and White Daisy inks
Art Philosophy snowflakes
Sparkles (circles and squares)
Jingle big brad
Liquid Glass
Stamps:
Wonderland Stamp Set (WOTG)
Jingle Borders
Christmas Scripts
