July Challenge

I generally don't have photos for my workshops, because I want you to visualize where your photos will go! I stamped my personal copy of this layout and added photos, but was too lazy to take it out of the album so here is a layout I put together to copy it! It is available for $7 if you are interested in purchasing it, email me and I will be happy to let you know how much shipping will be to your home. I accept paypal.

Other layouts and kits are also available and will be posted soon.

You can email me thru my website at www.LLWCREATE.MyCTMH.com. Thanks for looking! Cranberry, Star Spangeled Blue and White Daisy CS with red and white ribbon and blue brad all CTMH!

For July, I'm going to challenge you to make a card or layout in Red, White and Blue! Here is a layout we did last July at my Cherish Workshop at Panera Bread on Glenway Avenue. I have a workshop the first Thursday of every month. It is a different theme each time and the layouts are inspired by the Cherish book offered by Close To My Heart. Cherish offers different layouts with full cutting instructions and full-color examples. It also has an index in the front with a snapshot view of the layouts in the book and tells you how many photos will fit in a 2 page spread. I love this feature, because if I have a bunch of photos or only a couple, I can look for the layouts with that number of photos and get my inspiration! I also love the fact that I can turn one or both pages to different positions and have some completely different layouts. That and the use of different stamps, background and texture papers (B&T) and cardstock colors, allows me to make tons of different layouts that are all unique creations!

I have also challenged myself to cut the layout as instructed, and them rebuild a new layout with the pieces I have for a completely different layout! IT IS FUN~ Try it~!
