Paper Trail Blog Hop - January

Welcome to the Paper Trail Blog Hop for January featuring La Belle Vie! You've either come from Linda's blog - The Paper Taylor, or are starting here and will move along the trail! Either way, enjoy the artwork!

My first example is a card featuring the Stamp of the Month for January - S1301 Happy Valentine's.

 
X7158B La Belle Vie Paper Packet
1388 Colonial White Cardstock
Z2103 Bamboo Stamp Pad
Z2147 Smokey Plum Stamp Pad
Z1800 Rosette Ribbon
Z1732 Color-Ready Seam Binding Ribbon
Z1753 Sparkles Brown & Tan Assortment
 
Next is a fun layout! I have to admit that I did not free hand cut the pig - he is from a Cricut cartridge called From My Kitchen.
 
 
X7158B La Belle Vie Paper Packet
1385 White Daisy Cardstock
D1478 Bingo Alphabet
Z2105 Black Stamp Pad
Z2106 Blush Stamp Pad
 
The last example is another layout, on which I've used sweet leaf cardstock.
I really like the sweet leaf with these papers if the photos have some green in them!

Monogram Card Sets

I made these cards using basically scraps, for a lot of special ladies in my life. I put the card sets in a decorated box from Michael's, and made a coordinating pen to match each box. The boxes were 60% off. Everyone seemed to like them!


 

Special card and gift

I received this beautiful card from CTMH and Jeanette Lynton with a special gift for being a Dirctor with CTMH. I'm honored to work for such a wonderful company. I am grateful to have the opportunity to lead an amazing team of talented Consultants!

A Perfect Personalized Gift!

Need a last minute gift for your favorite papercrafter? Make it special by giving a monogram stamp - first or last name initial! Want to send a very special message? Spell out a word or phrase for your recipient - friends, love, family, sister, miss you, etc. Another great idea - spell out a new baby's name, last name for a newly or soon-to-be married couple, or your favorite place or city - camp, cabin, at the lake, beach, Anytown, USA! Have fun creating your special gift, but let me know by 12-12-12 so we can get your gift by Christmas!
