H2H Challenge: Christmas is Coming!

Hello everyone!  The gals at H2H are aware that Christmas is quickly approaching, so to get us all motivated to get prepared, the challenge this week is to create a Christmas-themed project.  You know I love my layouts, so that is what I decided to create this week. 

I used the beautiful new Pear and Partridge kit, matching rub-ons and sparkly brads.  The layout is from the awesome new publication Make it From Your Heart, and is ready to simply insert Christmas photos! I also used the brand new Cricut Artiste cartridge to cut the title "Noel" in Cranberry cardstock.

I hope you liked this quick little creation!  And I would like to see what YOU create, so please stop on by H2H and add your creation to the list.
CTMH Products used to create this card include:
Papers: Pear and Partridge WOTG, Chocolate and Cranberry cardstock
Inks: Chocolate
Embellishments: Silver Shimmer Brads, Pear and Partridge rub-ons, American Crafts lace ribbon
Other: Make it From Your Heart, Cricut Artiste Cartridge

H2H Challenge: Inspiration Photo

Hello fellow crafters!  H2H has a great challenge for you this week.  It's a photo inspiration challenge: look at the photo, and craft away.  Be inspired by the colours, shapes, items in the photo; it's up to you.  First, here is the photo....

I was in a Halloween state of mind, and I was inspired by the owls on the table, and the green table runner.  I reached for my Moonlight paper pack and WOTG stamp set, along with the matching dimensional elements, grabbed Make it From Your Heart, and came up with this layout...

I wanted to use the orange printed paper with the owls, along with the green patterned paper from this kit to mimic the table runner.  I used black for my base, but the patterned papers were all left over after completing my WOTG with this kit.  I also used the woodgrain patterned paper from the Dakota paper pack, inspired by the chairs in the photo, and what I imagine is a wooden table underneath the table cloth. 

Here is a close up of the dimensional elements and adorable owl stamp...

I hope you had a Happy Halloween and that you are inspired to get your layouts done!  And I would like to see what YOU create, so please stop on by H2H and add your creation to the list.
