Seasonal Expressions 2 Blog Hop


Have you had a chance to check out our newest Seasonal Expressions?  Today our blog hoppers are featuring products from this new book!  This hop will be fun. I can't wait to see what everyone has created. If you came here from Jean McNulty's blog, you are on the right track! The hop is a big circle so when you get back to me, you will know you have visited everyone's blog!  In case you get lost you can find the entire list of hoppers HERE.  

 When I first looked at the new SE2 catalog, there was one layout that I just fell in LOVE with.  So I decided to create a layout using the Beautiful Friendship paper and Coordinating Cardstock pack.  Here is the page from Seasonal Inspirations that inspired my layout:


I loved the stamped flowers behind the pictures.  So I recreated this same stamping technique using Pattern #11 from our Make It From Your Heart Vol 3.  Here is my version:
















The Beautiful Friendship Scrapbooking Stamp has a base and shade flower image.  To stamp the flowers evenly across, I drew a line at the 6" mark and then stamped the large base flower with Bashful ink overlapping the line.  I filled in the spaced with the smaller flowers.  I used Smoothie Ink for the shade image on the flowers.   

 I added the 4x6 PML card from the paper pack - "True Story" and also a 3x4 PML card for journaling.  

Here are the products I used:

Beautiful Friendship - Scrapbooking Stamp - D1779

Other Products Used:
Make It From Your Heart Vol. 3 - 9043
Beautiful Friendship Bows - Z4195
White Ribbon - Z4196
Sapphire Ink - Z2848

Smoothie Ink - Z2896

This size worked well.   If inserting a regular card you can use 4 3/4" measurement.  "Merry Christmas" is also cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  I set the measureme...
