Monday Montage Blog Hop – Week 13

Hello friends! Welcome back to our Monday Montage Blog Hop! You may have gotten here from the amazing Bree Renwick’s blog, make sure you select the “next” button below and that will take you to the next stop on the hop, the fabulous Dani Dziama’s blog. I have something fun today & I know my friends have wonderful goodies too!

I have been pinning Project Life projects on Pinterest like crazy lately and today I just had to try my hand at a PL project Stampin’ Up style 🙂

This page was super easy and fun to make. I used the Rhonna Designs photo app on my phone to edit some of my pics, printed them and then figured out my layout. I used pictures from a running event I participated in last weekend. My pictures didn’t fit exactly in the pockets of my album page….soooo I chopped things up a bit to fit. I love the way this turned out! I think having elements go across pockets made the whole thing come out awesome! And it was super easy to design and throw together! The hardest part was photographing the page! The pockets did not like my camera! I am posting one pic of the whole thing put together and then the individual parts up close so you can see how the puzzle of the page was designed and goes together. I’m also going to keep working on these pictures!!! I’ll try to get better ones 🙂

I hope you enjoyed this project as much as I enjoyed making it to share!

Don’t miss the rest of the pretties my friends have for you! I just know everyone has gorgeous projects to share!

Hello friends! Welcome back to our Monday Montage Blog Hop! You may have gotten here from the amazing Bree Renwick’s blog, make sure you select the “next” button below and that will take you to the next stop on the hop, the fabulous Dani Dziama’s blog. I am soooo excited to share our projects with you today, we are all having so much fun with the new Occasions Mini Catalog and Sale-a-Bration freebies!

I have a cute banner for you today that is made mostly from the FREE Heartfelt Banner Designer Kit! Yup, you read that correctly…spend $50 on Stampin’ Up product and get this adorns banner kit for FREE!

This was sooooo easy to put together! I used several pieces of the banner kit and added some elements of my own. I actually have enough kit pieces left to make another banner as a gift! I turned my project into a photo banner, I will be able to move photos in and out as I like so that they get off my phone and camera and out into the world!

I hope you are inspired to make a fun banner project, I just love how you can throw anything you want on to them!

Monday Montage Blog Hop – Week 11

Hello friends! Welcome back to our Monday Montage Blog Hop! You may have gotten here from the amazing Bree Renwick’s blog, make sure you select the “next” button below and that will take you to the next stop on the hop, the fabulous Dani Dziama’s blog. I am soooo excited to share our projects with you today, we are all having so much fun with the new Occasions Mini Catalog!

As I’ve said over and over…..I am in love with gold and all the fun gold embellishments out there these days! So, true to form my card is full to the brim with gold again this week!

I used Pool Party and Crumb Cake Paper along with Pool Party and Cherry Cobbler Ink. I just love how the Crumb Cake, Pool Party and Cherry Cobbler work together. Pretty much everything else is gold, gold and more gold! I also did some paper piecing, sort of. I cut one of the chevron patterns out of the I Am Me DSP and cut some over chevrons out of brushed gold. I also punched some gold chevrons with the chevron punch. I layered and piled the chevrons and I love the final result. Stamps sets featured are Gorgeous Grunge and Peachy Keen. My final gold accents are the gold sequins and embossed gold splats from Gorgeous Grunge.

I sure hope everything is coming up “gold” for you in 2014 & that I’ve given you a bit of the “gold bug”

Don’t miss the rest of the pretties my friends have for you! I just know everyone has gorgeous projects to share!

Monday Montage Blog Hop – Week 6

Posted on November 3, 2013 by kate80132

Hello friends! Welcome back to Monday Montage! You should have arrived here from the amazing Bree Renwick’s blog, select the “next” button below and that will take you to the next stop on the hop, the fabulous Dani Dziama’s blog. I can’t wait to see what they have to share this week, you won’t want to miss it!

I know it’s time to start crafting Thanksgiving and Christmas projects and I have already created a few of those type of projects but I couldn’t resist one more vintage-y unseasonal card. I figured a thank you card fit right in with November and Thanksgiving 🙂

This card features many things I love, love, love! Doilies (check), gold embossing (check), vintage buttons (check), a sparkly butterfly with pearls (check) and the Off the Grid stamp which seems like it might be out of place on this card but adds just the right touch! I actually found the bones of this card on Pinterest and I will have to find it again so I can give credit where credit is due. I’ll update this post as soon as I figure that out! I changed it up quite a bit and I love the final result. I hope this inspires you to make something gorgeous of your own!

I hope you are enjoying our creative inspiration as much as I am! I continue to be awed by the skill and creativity of my fellow friends on this hop! Be sure to come back every other Monday to see what we have up our sleeves for you!
