Artbooking

Have I told you how much I love Artbooking?  I love how easy CTMH made this cartridge to use. Now is a great time to fall in love with your cricut and Artbooking!  This is the 2nd video in a series teaching you some of the fun techniques when using the CTMH Cricut Artbooking Cartridge.

Sarita Fun

Well it has been a while since I have been able to work on my scrapbookprojects, but I was finally able to get some time in on the long Labor Day Weekend. 
 
 I used the new Close To My Heart Sarita paper packet on this layout for Hayley's 15th Birthday party.  We had a small party for her birthday at the house with some of her friends and of course our family and good friends came to celebrate with us.

Well, as most of you know I like a lot of pictures and I always have a hard time deciding which ones to keep.  Close to my Heart's fabulous flip flaps affords me many opportunities to include all of my photos. 

On this layout I used the True Fit Folio to add my extra photos.  I turned the Folio upside down to create a 12X12 flap.    Then all I had to do was insert the Folio into my page protector.  To cover/protect my Folio flap I cut the left side of my Page Protector (the hole side) and slide the page protector onto my flap!  Voilla! 

I used a lot of bling to include Sarita embelishments in combination with the 'zip strips' from the tops of the sheets of paper in the packet to complete my layouts.  The 'Happy Birthday' & 'Make A Wish' are some images from the new Artbooking Cricut Cartridge that I used to embellish my page as well. 


Here is a close up of the fabric flowers I made using the Sarita Textiles from Close To My Heart.  I also used some of the new Base and Bling to add deminsion to the flowers.  The flowers were very easy to make and added a fun embellishment to this great layout.

Till next time,

Happy Scrapping,
