Damask Divas Blog Hop: Huntington Pocket Album

Hello,
Welcome to the Damask Divas Blog Hop!

If you came from Latisha's Blog, you 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.

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

Damask Divas Blog Hop: Later Sk8r

Hello,

This is the Damask Divas Blog Hop featuring Later Sk8r or Tommy paper collections.

If you came from Amanda's blog, you are in the right place.

If you have jumped here and just discovered our Blog Hop, fell free to check the list at Damask Divas Blog to find the complete list of Blog Hop participants.

I used papers, the rocket embellishment and the stamp set from Workshops on the Go® Later Sk8r Scrapbooking Kit for my project. I had a different project in mind, but didn't have the time to make it...and since I'm behind on my scrapbooking, thought it would be nice to work on......my Project Life album! I finally decided to start one this year...

(O.K. I know my pics look really weird...my printer ran out of ink and I don't have a replacement yet. But I didn't want you staring at papers, so I didn't really adhere them down and will be replacing them later...sorry about that!)

I used my Slice to cut out the letters and the negative for "one" and I outlined some of the words with a marker. And don't forget to use the strips from the papers! The words are perfect as embellishments!

The next blog on the list is Shirley's!
Hope you have a great time on our Blog Hop!

The base is a piece of scrap mat board. I got them from a friend that works in a frame shop. 

These were inspired by the Workshops on the Go® Buzz and Bumble Scrapbooking Kit (G1054) projects.

This one is for my niece:

I'll be making variations on this photo of my sons for my mom and sisters-in-law:

They can be displayed on an easel or hung as ornaments (just punch holes and put a pretty ribbon on top!). I haven't decided what to do yet...but I think I might just add the ribbon! What do you think? Ribbon or no ribbon?

The next blog on the list is Carolyn's Blog.

Damask Divas Blog Hop: Chantilly Weekly Planner

Hello!
I'm so excited! This is my first blog hop!

If you came from Jamie Blades' Blog - Creative Projects, you are in the right place.

If you have jumped here and just discovered our Blog Hop, fell free to check the list at Damask Divas Blog to find the complete list of Blog Hop participants.
And don't forget to enter the Damask Divas GIVEAWAY this month. Enter to win a Close To My Heart Stamp Set.

This month we are using the Chantilly Paper Packet for our creations. This is what I came up with:

I've seen a lot of "dry erase" weekly planners on Pinterest, using photo frames or collage frames and wanted to make one. I have had this 8 x 10 inches acrylic frame with magnets for the longest time now...but never really used it.
I guess you can say I just "killed two birds with a stone"...although I would never kill birds...

All I had to do was cut three 1.5 inch strips and one 1 inch strip of papers from the Chantilly Paper Packet and adhere them on a piece of 8 x 10 white cardstock, as shown.
Then, I used the stamp set that came with Workshop on the Go Chantilly Scrapbooking Kit to decorate the left side (if you buy the kit you get the papers and the stamp set!)
I used the Trinity Alphabet Set for the days of the week.
And finally, I inked the edges of the final piece.

Here's the rest of the supplies I used for the project:
Cotton Candy Stamp Pad
Memento Rich Cocoa Ink Pad
Memento Pear Tart Ink Pad
8 x 10 Acrylic Frame with magnets

The next blog on the list is Melissa Lind's My Watermelon Moon.
Hope you have a great time on our Blog Hop checking out all the creations using Chantilly.
