Damask Divas Blog Hop: Huntington Pocket Album

Hello,
Welcome to the Damask Divas Blog Hop!

If you came from Latisha's Blogyou are in the right place.
If you have jumped here and just discovered our Blog Hop, feel free to check the list at the Damask Divas Blog to find the complete list of Blog Hop participants. 

We're featuring the Huntington Paper Collection this month. 
I love the autumn colors in it! And I had so many ideas for this Blog Hop: scrapbook layouts, cards, place cards, candle ring...you name it! But then, I decided to use this new Kraft Pocket Album from CTMH.


My family usually goes to an Apple Orchard every year. So, I thought I would slide the pictures in the pockets, and maybe some small ones outside the pockets plus some journaling and embellishments...just like what you would do with My Crush™ Books (an upcoming project).

For the Pocket Album, I actually used the "leftovers" from my Huntington WOTG Scrapbooking Kit. I completed the two 2-page layouts, and I was still left with lots of paper for future projects...
After I decided where I wanted the pieces of paper, I simply used Mod Podge® to adhere them on the cover. Then, I used my Cricut and the Art Philosophy cartridge to cut some embellishments (flourish and flowers) and added them to the cover. I also added the Bronze Shimmer Trim on the spine.
detail of the cover:

I'm still working on the inside...but here's a peek:

stamp: The Best Things (C1503)

Your next stop is Tracey's Blog...hope you enjoy our Blog Hop!

Birthday Cake Banner

This is the cake banner I made for my son B! He just turned one this past Saturday!


And no, I did not make the cake...I placed the banner and the dinosaurs on it, though! =)


I used the Washi Wonder Hostess Stamp Set from CTMH, different color ink pads, monogram stickers from DCWV and baker's twine.
I'm also entering this banner in the "Brown Paper Packages Tied Up with Strings" Challenge at H2H CTMH Challenge Blog. I just love that song, don't you?
OK, you might have noticed...there aren't any brown paper packages...
I guess my song should go like this..."White Paper Banners Tied Up with Strings..." =)

Have a good day!

Ombre Cake Card

When I saw this challenge at Moxie Fab World (Tuesday Trigger: Honoring Ombre), I knew exactly which stamp I wanted to use!!! The problem was making the card...but I did it!


I used the generational stamping technique to achieve the ombre look on the cake layers (I cut the "layers" out and adhered them with foam tape on my cake base). I stamped a woodgrain doily for the cake and added a bow pick. Then, I added some glitter gel to the frosting.


I also curled the ends of the banners for some more dimension and added some sequins.

Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies from CTMH:
A Chocolate Affair (retired stamp set)

Dinosaur Thank You Card

I was able to make two cards today for a CAS-ual Fridays Challenge:

The sentiment was stamped three times (generational stamping) and some grass was added, too.

Supplies:
Dinosaur and grass (Stampin'Up! - I know, I know...not CTMH but he's a cutie, isn't he?)
A True Thank You (M1029-Close to My Heart)
embossing powder (Ranger)
