New Idea Book Blog Hop - Great New Papers and Products

To celebrate the new Close to My Heart Idea Book released today - our consultant team ( The Brae-er's) is participating in a blog hop to show off some of the great new products you will find in the Autumn/Winter Idea Book.

If you have come from Brae's blog you are on the right track.  Take a look at my artwork and then hop on over to  Rosalynd Kelly's blog.

 

Heather's Artwork - using the new "Sarita" papers and textiles.

I love all of the featured paper packs in the new idea book.  I can't wait to get busy creating with all of them.

I chose the Sarita paper pack to work with first.  I was inspired by a summer outfit that I saw someone wearing last week that reminded me of some of the paper in the Sarita collection.

Here is the first layout that I have done with these new papers:

As well as the papers that are included in the paper pack I also used some cotton candy cardstock. To embellish the pages I used the matching Sarita Textiles, Hollyhock Zipper Lace, some of the new Base and Bling metal embellishments, as well as my new favorite embellishment set the Rosewood Mini-Medley Accent Collection.






Your next stop on our Team Blog Hop is Rosalynd Kelly's blog.  Make sure you check out here artwork using the new Babycakes papers from Close to My Heart.




Below is some of the artwork created by the Close to My Heart designers using the Sarita paper pack as well.  These versatile papers can create many different looks, I hope you will have as much fun with them as I have been having.
