Sparkle and Shine Workshop On The Go

Just before Christmas our scrapbook club  had planned to meet to make Sparkle and Shine layouts, but an ice storm had other plans. We finally got to meet Saturday. Here are the four layouts they made. If you live in our area, you may be interested to know that we always make four layouts. I have all of the pieces cut so that you don't have to take time cutting your papers. You can look at my examples to speed the process of construction. If you're one of the ladies who missed that day, hopefully these photos will help you.

The first two are from the Workshops On the Go brochure, using the CTMH stamps.

The last two use the chipboard complements that match the Sparkle and Shine workshop. I roughly based them on the level two layouts Jeanette Lynton gives us on her website.

I added the rest of the stitched dots on the bottom. I sanded the edges of the juniper cardstock and  decided to score two lines near the top and sand them for contrast.

This last layout uses photos I took of our scrapbook club  last year. If you were there that day,  I made a set of the photos for you.

Our scrapbook club meets again on January 18th to make winter layouts using the Frosted paper pack.  You can see the Frosted workshop picture here. The second layout is here. The Level 2 layouts that use the Stickease complements are here.

Sparkle and Shine Card Workshop

What a blessing it was to be with both old and new friends today. We made 15 Christmas cards, rotating around the church basement from station to station.

Here are the last eight cards our scrapbook club made today for Christmas using the Close To My Heart Sparkle and Shine paper pack, chipboard complements, and a variety of stamps.

The middle one on top is my version of a CTMH workshop card, as well as the one under it. Three of them are from the card patterns in the Make It From the Heart books which takes the guesswork out of designing and knowing what size to cut the paper. The top right and bottom right cards are my own design to use chipboard trees and ornaments. If you went home with one or two cards unfinished, I hope this helps you complete your cards.

Thanks for visiting!
