Presenting a Gift Certificate!

I am the chairperson of a bingo event, benefiting the school where I teach. This is the third bingo event for me, and this time we decided to add some raffle prizes. I am donating a gift certificate as a Close To My Heart Independent Consultant. Instead of putting the gift certificate in and envelope, I wanted the presentation to be a WOW!

This is the first My Creations® Bracket Frame I completed. I used the Art Philosophy cartridge to cut the Laughing Lola Paper Packet for the frame. That made this project a snap! I kept the embellishments simple since the paper is a busy pattern. Black Shimmer Trim, a Burlap Ribbon flower, and a jewel from the Laughing Lola Assortment is all this project needed.

A Scrapbook Layout ABOUT a Crop?

Of course we need to scrapbook pictures of our time scrapbooking or cardmaking! This past summer I attended a 12 hour crop with several CTMH consultant friends. It was a great time of fellowship and working on projects.

Now you might be looking at the paper and elements and saying how is it a Studio J layout? It's true that the paper and elements are not Close To My Heart. They are from Harper Finch Designs "I Craft Kit".  The templates are from Jen C Design's Pot Pourri Volume 1 and 2 I love that I can create a layout with Photoshop Elements and load into Studio J with the No Limits pattern. That way I can create using anything and still benefit from the professional printing and JPG files that Close To My Heart provides.

A laughed so much creating this layout! I think I can rival any Disney character with my animated facial expressions and poses! Good times!

Butterflies, a Studio J Layout
