Color My Heart : Dare #2

Color My Heart  Dare #2 up.  We were asked to use Topiary, Pear, Lagoon and/or Moonstruck. At first I was going to chicken out and use 2 out of the 4, but then I decided to push myself and use ALL 4 colors.  So glad I did! 

This LO is based on a design found in the Magic idea book called Backstage.  Because I wanted a more masculine LO, I used stars as an element.  I used strips of card stock to create the stripped paper.  That is my favorite part of this Layout.  The stars and the letters were all cut out using CTMH's Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge.  I did not want the strips to be the only pattern on the LO, so I used the polka dot stamp from D1325 Argyle Backgrounds on the stars and the letters (Pear paper with Topiary ink)

Here is a close up of the stars and the stripes:

Who Dat?

     I make cookie cutter kids.  Even though they are 2 years apart in age, I am constantly asked if they are twins.  The other day the kids were being silly and started taking pictures in the same outfit.  They wanted to know if anyone could tell them apart.
     I used the Dreamin' paper kit.   I think it is my current favorite paper kit.  I followed the "One-Way Mirror" layout from Magic.  I replaced a journal box with a photo and substituted 2 photos in the place of one 5x7 photo.  And, by the way, the title was cut with the Art Philosophy Cartridge. I love the LO and so do my kids.

I Cherish

I have been playing with a paper kit from the new Fall/Winter CTMH catalog, Roxie.  It is super -cute.  I don't know what pictures I am going to use yet, but that's OK...  The layout is based on Levitate from the Magic design book.  I am Thrilled that it will be now offer at the lower price!

 The zebra paper was cut  with the New Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge , so were the hearts.  Also notice the bling... gotta love the bling. The stick pins and bling button both came from our new bling assortment!

 I used the a new stamp set on this layout as well C 1474 ( 10 things)... The scallop cut is done with the Art Philosophy cartridge as well.
