Cake Day Simply Scrappin' 12-Page Workshop

 Cake Day Simply Scrappin'

12-Page Workshop


Happy Happy Birthday! Who doesn't need birthday pages?? Everyone loves Cake Day and I didn't want my Simple Scrappers to think I forgot about them.  It seems it has been all about the sparkle & shine this month but this one is simple, easy, fast, and has a minimal supply list! Those of you who don't know, my Simply Scrappin' workshops are specifically designed for those that do not want to have to have added equipment and accessories such as the Cricut, Thin Cuts, or stamps to be able to complete fun and functional pages. These pages are purposely designed without alot of added extras, with lots of photo opportunities and with a really easy workload to "get it done"!  What I love about these simple pages is the versatility--by simply flipping a pattern or changing out the color of a background page--they can take you in any direction you want to go and would work for boy, girl or adult birthday parties or even parties period---not necessarily birthday but anytime cake is warranted!!  It's all about the cake! There are lots of ways to elevate these pages, shimmer brush splatter, doodling with journaling pen, gel pen, and marker, adding shimmer trim and more but the idea behind them is to keep them simply so you can make them your own! So let's take a look at Cake Day and how you can get this and get to creating! Layouts and supply list to follow!

Whoa!! I am WILD about WILD BERRY and it's been a BLAST working with it!  During the month of April CTMH is having a WILDBERRY BLAST where it is ALL things WILDBERRY. Wildberry was named our color of the year for 2021-22 and as the seasons wind down they are showcasing it before it is going-going-gone! For the month of April only CTMH is featuring a discounted Wild Berry bundle with an exclusive stampset and WOW! It is stunning! Add UV coated cardstock, Silver foil cardstock and all the things!!!  I wasn't so sure about featuring mono-chromatic layouts or layouts featuring one primary color but I am SO tickled I  did!! Not only does CTMH have a ready made workshop and set of projects you can download but I created this whimsical and fun 12-Page workshop featuring so many fun elements.  I am dreaming of Black & White photos on these pages because the Wild Berry will just make them POP!!  And those fun caps! I  have so many pictures of everyday life with my Grandchildren in caps having fun.  How cute would those faces be?  When you all all things blings--Wild Berry stitched ribbon, Wild Berry Shimmer Trim, Wild Berry Glitter Gems, Wild Berry Dots, Glitter Paper you get a stunning effect.  I had to go back to our archives and pull up our amazing Star Shaker Window and add some Wild Berry stamping with the exclusive stamp set and some of our gorgeous Wild Berry Sequins.  I hope you are as "WOW'd" by Wild Berry as I have been!!! What "berry" big suprise it was!!!

In Full Bloom Sparkle & Shine 12 Page Workshop

 In Full Bloom Sparkle & Shine

12-Page Workshop


Finally, finally, finally! I finally get to debut this BEAUTY!! I feel like everyone in the world got their chance to touch and cut and hold and admire this gorgeous, gorgeous featured collection of the month before I could find the elusive time! But my time has come and I am over the  moon for her! From the  color scheme, to every tiny sparkly and stunning detail...I  love, love, love it! I held nothing back---and use almost every.single.last.scrap!  I  paired these gorgeous papers, stickers, and die cuts from the workshop kit with the gorgeous In Full Bloom Stamp & Thin Cut set.  You  literally cannot tell a difference between the Thin Cut flowers and the gorgeous stickers and die-cuts with just a little sponging.  Amazing!  I don't often use the Thin Cuts in my full scrapbook workshops unless they totally speak to me and this one spoke volumes to me.  I can't say gorgeous--enough! You will also see some inking and sponging techniques throughout the workshop--don't worry--I have made this SO easy for you by creating overlay pieces on the Cricut for you to sponge with!  I had to pull out all the stops when a special one like this comes along, so of course, I added a shaker Camera element and all  the sparklies: Silver Shimmer Trim, Silver Embellishing Thread, Silver Glitter Gems, Bitty Sparkles and Silver Sequins for the shaker.  Top it off with some sparkly shimmer brush and there are stars in all of our eyes! So enough gushing....let's take a look at the Stamp & Thin Cuts and then all of the options!

All I can say about that is ...SWOON!!
