All a Twitterpated!

Fall is my favorite season of the year. I love the cooler temperatures and nature's vivid display of color so, CTMH's new Twitterpated paper packet was my first purchase from the new catalog. Instead of the traditional orange, golds and browns for fall, this paper has a fun color palette using sorbet, Crystal Blue and Sweet Leaf with Chocoloate. What I love most about the paper packet is that the papers can be used for a variety of layouts other than fall layouts and it will work well in a classy or whimsical way. Got to love that kind of versatility!


Speaking of versatility, I am excited about the change in Close To My Heart’s Workshops on the Go! Beginning with the new catalog, you will be able to purchase a Workshop on the Go kit that includes papers, an exclusive stamp set and some other items to make the project. The kit will also come with a colorful guide to show you how to make the project all at a price discounted below the retail value if items were purchased separately!  Also, because you will be receiving a complete paper packet, you will have enough papers to do both the card and layout project.  There are two kits, a "Basic" kit and a "Best" kit.  The "Best" kit allows you to purchase additional accessory items to "bling up" your project. 

Here’s pictures of the Twitterpated Scrapbook & Card Workshops on the Go. The images on the cards were stamps from the stamp set that is only available in the Twitterpated WOTG kit (order # for Basic Kit is G1000).

Now, for more twitterpated art, here’s a card I made using papers from the Twitterpated paper packet and the Flourished Blessings stamp set.

The recipe for this card:

Papers:  Twitterpated Paper Packet

Winter in NC

For those of you who have had enough of winter this year I'm sure this is the last thing you want to see! We don't get much snow here in NC so I really enjoy it when we do. Prior to this year, the last really big snow we had was in 2000 and I it was so much fun watching the boys play in the snow that year. They were little and experienced their first snowmen and snowball fights. This year we had another fairly significant snow but the boys are older now so were not interested in building a snowman but they couldn't resist the snowball fights ... guess boys are never to old for those! Here's a layout of them this year. I used the CTMH Aspen paper pack for this layout and I still need to add the journaling.
