October Afternoon Make It Merry Blog Hop

Welcome to my stop on the October Afternoon Make It Merry Blog Hop! Today we are celebrating this fun new line. Make It Merry combines vintage holiday-print patterns with basic and graphic prints. In other words, Make It Merry has something for everyone. An added fun bonus? All of the patterned paper names start with "Make" (Make a Wreath, Make a Figgy Pudding, etc.).

Let's take a look at what the whole collection looks like:

Here's a fun card I created with this line:

 
I used all of the following products on my card:

Make a Star patterned paper (A side)

Make a Garland patterned paper (A side)

Make a Garland patterned paper (B side)

Make a Card patterned paper (A side)

Chipboard Bundle

Tidbits

I also threw in a product from last year's holiday line, Holiday Style (love the glitter in these colors!):

More Maps, This Time Without Photos

Quick post to:

1. Remind you to check back here tomorrow. Trust me. If you like holiday paper lines you will love tomorrow. Hint, hint, wink, wink.

2. Alert you to Day 2 of Map Week at write.click.scrapbook. Today is all about using maps instead of photos, as I did here:

Cardstock:Bazzill Basics + Patterned Paper: Studio Calico, American Crafts + Tag: American Crafts +        Die Cuts: American Crafts + Brad: October Afternoon + Font: Typenoksidi

Be sure to check back at write.click.scrapbook. tomorrow for Day 3 of Map Week, when we will focus on maps as embellishments.

Maps and the Case of the Missing Apostrophe

Today I launched Map Week at write.click.scrapbook. with this layout (and lots of layouts from write.click.scrapbook. team members):

Cardstock: Bazzill Basics + Patterned Paper: Crate Paper + Letter Stickers: Pebbles + Twine: May Arts

While the main purpose of this blog post is to encourage you to follow Map Week all week this week, I couldn't post this layout without the accompanying story.

I photographed this layout, edited the photo, included it in my Map Week post, and also loaded it to the gallery at Two Peas in a Bucket. 

Later, I noticed a red apostrophe stuck to the bottom of my sock, but assumed one had come loose from the packaging when I was cleaning up my desk.

Notice anything about my layout? Yup. The missing apostrophe. I posted this thing in two different places without seeing it. The apostrophe is now back on the layout. Phew! Grammar disaster averted! 

 

We Love Color

It's the first of the month, which means there is a new gallery up at write.click.scrapbook. Here's my contribution:

Cardstock: Bazzill Basics + Patterned Paper: October Afternoon + Wood Veneer Embellishments: Studio Calico + Spray Inks: October Afternoon, Studio Calico + Letter Stickers: Jillibean Soup + Die Cut Speech Bubble: October Afternoon + Brad: October Afternoon + Font: Typenoksidi

Be sure to check out the entire gallery to see how much fun the write.click.scrapbook. team has with color!
