October 2014 Stamp of the Month blog hop

Welcome to the October SOTM blog hop! Today you should have arrived from Katy’s blog. If you happen to get lost along the way, you can find the entire list of hoppers on Melinda’s blog. I hope you find some great ideas!

This set is super adorable, and I can easily see myself making a LOT of tags for presents with this set! Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get to a project before this hop went live, you will will have to forgive me for not having my own artwork up here.

This adorable box uses one of the adorable cupcake boxes that you get as a set of 2. {cupcake not included} and some black striped twill ribbon.

1410-sotm-cricut-box
This super cute box was cut from the Artiste Cartridge.

Both of these boxes are super cute, and go together so fast! Your gift would be ready in no time!

Pathfinding Workshop now available!

Hey everyone!

I’ve been busy, working up a storm! Today, I am sharing with you the Pathfinding workshop! It is a 5 page workshop with 45 photo spots, that you could EASILY add more to! (I’ll show you how at the end!)

01-w

The first pages you see use our 12″ flip flaps (not shown in the photo, due to glare). It uses the 8″, 4″, and 2 of the 6″ flip flaps (1/2 of a package).

01-iLw

This is the left page, opened up (with the right page removed, to make more sense when photographing).

01-iRw

This is the right page, opened up, again, with the left page removed to make more sense when photographing.

01-wiw
This is the inside of page one, with all flaps removed for ease of photographing.

02-w

Page 2 allows for sooooo many photos! The best part? You could easily add a package of the new 3 x 4 flip flaps to this page, and you will have up to 30 more photos on these pages!!

03-w

Page 3 is a fun page! You can add the 4 x 6 flip flaps to this page, as well as the 3 x 4, and have more photos here as well!

Flip flaps are such a handy tool to always have available when you are scrapbooking! They allow you to have many more photos on your pages, that might only have a few, otherwise.

Check out this quick video that I made to show you these layouts in their flip flaps, and how they work.

Now, how do you go about getting this workshop?

There are two options for you to get these files. You can place a $25 order on my site, and I will email them right over! Or, you can purchase just the files for $15. This option is great if you are outside of the US and not able to order from my website.

Are you a consultant that would like to offer this class to your customers? Email me after you place your order, and I will also send the consultant release and information on how to best work this for your workshop!





This workshop is fast and easy to put together, and allows you to showcase so many of your photos! I don’t know about you, but when my kiddos were younger, there were many, MANY photos of them playing in the leaves, soccer games, pumpkin patch, hay rides, and Thanksgiving too.

These are the things that you will need to be able to complete your workshop:

Pathfinding Paper Pack
Colonial White Cardstock (6 sheets)
12” Assortment Flip Flap Pack ( ½ pack)

Glue of choice (Liquid Glass)

I distressed all of the paper pieces with Cashmere ink and a sponge.

The only tools that you will need to complete these pages are your trimmer, a pencil, and a sponge!

Please let me know if you have ANY questions about this workshop! I would be HAPPY to answer them for you!

Confetti Wishes Workshop is now available!

Do you have lots of birthday pictures that you need to get scrapped? Maybe you have multiple kids that you are behind with? Well, then this workshop is for you!! With this workshop, you will have 16 pages completed, ready for photos, with minimal paper used, keeping your cost down!

full-workshop

When you purchase the full list of items, you will have some leftovers (but not much) that you can use on other projects. The cost breakdown for each 12 x 12 page (averaged, of course) is just $3.07! You won’t be able to beat that price anywhere! And, if you break it down to what you have left, well, then the price gets even better! {but, honestly, I didn’t do that math.}

This workshop includes a welcome letter, which includes the photo sizes you will need for the workshop (including which orientation you will need them in), a piece labeling sheet, cutting guides that include first and second cuts (to help minimize mistakes), photos of the individual layouts with some close up shots, and helpful tips on how to put the pages together. It also includes tips on how to make some of the pages less ‘birthday’! There is also a list in the workshop of things that you might want to add, to put a little more oomph into the pages, including flip flaps, more embellishments, and the ever needed page protectors!

I know that this will be a great workshop for so many people! There is NO stamping and no cricut cuts needed for this workshop, as I know that there are people that would LOVE to have pages that they didn’t have to stamp on, and there are people that do not have a cricut, or maybe don’t have our cartridges. This workshop requires just the basic supplies to put it together.

Ready to get some more information? Head over to the Workshops page, and it will explain how to get this fantastic kit! You can get it if you are in the US or even if you aren’t!

Before you leave, though, here are some closer shots of each of the pages that you will create with this workshop!
