New Timberline paper!

Only one more day until you can order from the new Close To My Heart book! The paper I used for these cards is the new Timberline. I love the wood side. These papers are going to work great for my camping pages. The stamps I use were Card Chatter-Sympathy, Friendship Bouquet, and Pure Adventure. The burlap is from Hobby lobby. The embossing folder was a gift from my friend Tricia. Thanks, this will go great with my camping photos also! I colored the sunflower with my alcohol markers and added some flowers from Just Paper Blooms-Paradise. I was able to pick them up for a deal on the While Supplies Last list. You can shop here http://brendamckerchie.ctmh.com Plus everyone who orders from Kathy's party will get their name in a drawing for the stamp pictured below! Thanks for stopping by and Scrap Happy!

Cleaning Blocks and Stamp Cleaning Pad

i have discovered an easy way for me to clean my stamping blocks and scrubber. Right in my kitchen sink! When I am done with my dishes I dump my blocks and scrubber in my dish water.

You can use a Magic eraser to get the sticky stuff off and then rinse well. I then stand them all up on a dish towel to dry! Easy Peasy!

More Sweetheart Projects

i have been working on using up a bunch of my Sweet Heart paper. I have made some fun heart valentines but this week I made a banner fro my scrap room. I have seen many of these online in other people's scrap rooms and wanted to try it myself. I cut all the shapes by hand from my scraps because I did not want them to all be the same and then I got out my sewing machine and just sewed them together.My sewing machine is not in the best working order but I was able to sew through this thin paper quite well. Unfortunately it was in out basement when we were on vacation and it flooded and my machine has not been right since.

I have not decided if I want to leave it up or just put it up for Valentines. Right now I still have my Christmas one up and this one! I think it is time to take the Christmas one down for sure, but this one does not say anything about valentines so I could get away with leaving it up.

Fun Boy birthday card

I used Close To My Heart Later Sk8r paper for this card. I fussy cut images from the stamp set Fast and Furious to make the cars and put foam tape behind them.

So Kathy's party is now open and you can start ordering from the new book February !st.
