Mojo Monday 246 Teacher Card

Hello! This is my second post for the day.

When I saw this week's Mojo Monday sketch, the 3 vertical squares made me think of A, B, C blocks. After that, the card came together really quickly.

Here is Mojo Monday's sketch #246:

And  here is my take on this cute sketch!

As you can see, I used the sketch horizontally. I love how the vineyard berry color pops against the colonial white and juniper.

If you would like to participate in this week's sketch, you have until Sunday night. Click here for more details.

Build Your Card Stash Workshop

Good morning. This weekend, I was busy creating some cards for my upcoming "Build Your Stash" workshop.

Just letting you know ahead of time that the pictures aren't the greatest today. It's a dark and dreary day outside, and I'm missing my usual natural light today.

You are getting a sneak peek at our new paper pack, Stella, as well as a new product that will be available after February 1st...baker's twine. Missing from this post is one more card for St. Patrick's Day, so please stay tuned.... :)

If you would like to join us for this workshop, please r.s.v.p. by Friday, January 20th. Cost is just $15.00 to create 8 cards and 2 candy boxes. We always have a wonderful time.

Believe in Wonderland Magic

Good evening. I've been missing in action for a few weeks now. I wanted to share my latest artwork with you.

A fellow CTMH consultant, Helen Onulak, has a weekly scrapbook challenge posted on her blog. I have followed her blog since before I signed up as a consultant. Yesterday, I found myself really inspired by this latest sketch and decided that I would dig my favorite kit (from the current idea book) out and create a new scrapbook layout. Hope you like!

The purple cardstock was inspired by 2 of my favorite CTMH consultants (and close friends), Ms. Dawn Ross and Ms. Heather Jane Schmuckal. We love purple!

I also have a set of Christmas cards to share with you. I'm sorry that I don't recall the name of the CTMH consultant that they were inspired by. She does lovely work, and it just so happened that I had the same scrap pieces left from my Believe kit. Here they are:

Now, last but not least are some fun french fry boxes that I made using the CTMH Art Philosophy cricut cartridge. I finally figured out how to make them! I'm going to share a link from the lady that inspired me to create these fun Christmas gifts. She is another CTMH consultant, Ms. Vicki Wizniuk. If you check out her blog, you will find the dimensions that were used to create these.

So there you have it...my latest creations. Merry Christmas from the Bennett Family!

Dreamin' and Typeset Cards

Good evening! I hope your Labor Day weekend was nice.

We spent last weekend enjoying our last camping trip of the season. Monday, after we got home, my husband started carrying everything back in to the house (including about 6 loads of laundry). Our pantry is full to bursting now. But the camper is all set to be winterized for the season.

One bit of nostalgia for me, is thinking about how this was our last camping trip as a family of 4. The next time we go out, we will have to pack a play pen, bottles, formula, diapers, stroller, etc. It's so hard to believe that a tiny newborn requires so many things.

My son Jack started kindergarten yesterday. I didn't have time for tears as my firstborn baby started on his journey; I was too busy trying to console his baby sister. She cried and clung to me as I dropped her off at daycare (by herself). Izzy kept saying "I want my Jack Jack. I just miss him so much." Awe....

Well, now it's time to share a few of my latest projects with you.

First of all, we have a card made with Dreamin'. Love this paper.

And here is a thank you card that I made with Typeset and the Art Philosophy cartridge bundle.

And a bonus card that I made a while back using Lucky, but forgot to post a copy of:

Hope you all are having a wonderful week back to school and back to work. :)
