Heidi Ho and Happy Friday! PHEW! It's nice to get back to business after a VERY full week of packing up BOGO items and paper/ribbon shares! When I have a mammoth task like those, I tend to do NOTHING else until it's done. Mission accomplished! I hit the post office this morning so how my attention turns to task undone ... like my MCM blog post from this Monday! Ohhhh how I love this layout! It comes right out of our Jan-Apr 2025 Mini Catalogue, page 12. Have you NOTICED that our catalogued now have a page with LOADS of card and tag sketch layouts?? True story! Our catalogue are very much a TOOL, not just a "buy these things" pretty book!
The inspiration for USING this layout actually came from a card swap I took part in. Chris Carmichael used the layout and I was drawn to it. SO versatile! Check out the cards we made on MCM ...
When making this one with the new Ocean Friends products, I wasn't sure about it ... but the more I look at it, the more I LOVE it! I'm just not used to the bright colours and bold images ... but they really have won me over!
THIS one I absolutely freaking LOVE! THIS is my style! Clean, crisp ... and PLAID!!! The Timeless Plaid pattern is EVERYTHING ... and I want 100 sheets of it! I only just recently got (but now love!) the "Hugs for Love" Bundle - (the punch also coordinates with the Bright Borders stamp set!). Check out the video replay for a trick I used to make a border for the punched focal image!
Terrific Toadstools and Toadstool Gardens (free SAB paper) make this card FABULOUS!
The free Friendly Seagulls Sale-a-brations set is fun!! (the inside says I love you more than french fries)
This is the swap card I got from Chris, which inspired me to try the layout ... which I love! She used the ADORABLE "One More Year" stamp set.
Want to make your own version(s) of the card layout? Here is the "recipe" of the pieces you need to prep ...
That's it for this week.
