Grace level 1 cards

I have seen so many neat things done with the level one kits.  I hope to experiment with them enough to utilize them so well.  I want to say thank you to Pam Wallace for showing me the template and examples.  Here are my nine cards. I don't know if I should scrapbook with rest of the kit or make more cards.

My favorite CTMH product

When I first discovered Close To My Heart, I loved the coordinating paper packs. They are still my favorite but for a different reason. I love how CTMH shows you new ways to use the paper packs, like Home Sweet Home for a football layout. 

Sneak peek at my Mistletoe Scrapbook Workshop

I still need to add a title on the last layout and a few embellishments after the pictures are on the pages.  Leave a comment and let me know what you think.

Home Sweet Home

I was so amazed when the catalog showed a football page done with Home Sweet Home paper.  Here is my version.

Fort Lauderdale

No Set Up...No Clean Up...Just Faster, Simpler, and Easier...I am so glad to have Studio J.  It costs nothing to try it. Click on Studio J link or go to carrieevans.myctmh.com and have some fun!!

Gift idea

Are you looking for a fun gift idea. Come make this cute table or mantel display . Call or email me to set up a class.  It works great for two seasons, one on each side!

Studio J

No setup and no cleanup...faster, simpler, and easier. I had fun making my first online scrapbook pages. Play around with it for free. Go to carrieevans.myctmh.com and have some fun. If you have as much fun as I am, check out the membership for great per layout prices.

RETIRING- SOLD OUT

For anyone iterested in the Memory Keeper Box, it is retiring at the end of this year and is in the while supplies last category

November Scrapbook Club

Here are the layouts for my November workshops.  Let me know if you would like to do this workshop. The pictures on the "Together" page were from Bronwyn's phone.  Bad pictures, Great Memories. I keep trying new ways to get good pics, any suggestions please let me know.

Christmas Card Swap

A Christmas card swap sounded fun to me, BUT I don't have any Christmas sayings, nor the cardstock I wanted to use.  I improvised and used only materials I already own. It won't knock your socks off, but not bad.

A Little More Hooligan Fun

Using up some leftover scraps from my Hooligan Paper.

Baby Memory Box

Here is our My Creations Memory Keeper. On a message board, I saw something very similar with this poem.  I had so much fun making it. Some friends liked the idea and suggested other uses School Age Children's Memories, 4H, Cub Scouts, Sports, or Sorority Momentos.

October Club Project

To all my techy friends and Grammar gurus, please feel free to giggle at my poor attempt to blog.  I hope it won't be long and I will be laughing, too.  Constructive advice is welcome, also.  This is my first Scrapbook Workshop.  These eight pages can be completed in two to three hours.  If you are looking for an evening of fast, fun, and fabulous scrapbooking this might be the opportunity for you.  My house or yours would be great.  If you don't have the numbers, but would like to do the workshop, call me I may have times available that will work for you.
