BBQ Layout With Jubilee Paper, Complements & Little Piggy Cricut Paper Piecing 2 of 3

Happy Tuesday Crafty friends,

Hope you’re having a terrific day! Today I wanted to share another layout I created with the awesome summer Jubilee paper pack and matching chipboard complements elements from Close To My Heart. Sadly this fantastic set will be going away at the end of the month. So here’s what I came up with.

Here’s a look at my complete layout. I once again used papers from the Jubilee Paper Pack. I did add some white cardstock as well as some kraft cardstock and black cardstock. I also used a piece of pink paper for the piggy piecings. But other than that, the kraft background and all other papers are still from the one pack of Jubilee. Of course the Jubilee complements on this layout are from the same pack that I used with yesterday’s layout. You really do get a lot of “bang for your buck” with these sets.

Here’s a closer look at the summertime chipboard element. I love these elements. They are a nice firm chipboard.

Here’s a closer look at the sweet little piggy paper piecing I created. He is made with the Art Philosophy cartridge and my Expression. No other programs or files. Just used cuts from the cartridge.

My special: Make any purchase through my Close To My Heart Link this month and I will gladly send you the recipe to re-create this adorable little Piggy Piecing or the cute little Ants from yesterday’s project HERE

Here’s a closer look at the pretty chipboard element that I used to wrap my photo mat with. I used some ribbon from my stash. A photo will slide easily underneath.

Here’s a closer look at the little piggy chef topper. I think he turned out super cute. Again, he is from the Art Philosophy  and Artiste Cartridges.

Here’s a closer look at the BBQ letters. These are cut from the Art Philosophy  and Artiste Cartridges. I cut them in kraft and black and then layered them and then did a little faux stitching to give them just a bit more interest.

Here is a closer look at the cute piggy gingham chipboard element. I used some glue dots to adhere him to the ribbon. That way a photo will slide underneath.

Here is a closer look at the nice “details” chipboard element. Perfect for some journaling!

Here's one last look at the entire layout.

Retiring Jubilee Layout 1 of 3 with Cute Cricut Ant Paper Piecings

Happy Monday crafty friends!

Hope you are beating the heat and enjoying your summer days! Today I am sharing a layout I created with the super fun Jubilee Paper Pack and coordinating Complements chipboard set from Close To My Heart. As this month winds down, this will be the last chance you have to purchase this fun set. The new Close To My Heart Annual Inspirations catalog is set to debut in August. So that means there are a lot of great products going away. You can see the retiring products HERE. Okay here is my layout.

Here’s a look at my entire layout. It is a two page layout featuring papers from the Jubilee paper pack, Chipboard accents from the Complements set and some super cute little Ant paper piecings I created using my Art Philosophy cartridge and Artiste Cartridge along with my Expression. Along with the papers in the Jubilee set, I did use some white cardstock for the photo mats and some kraft cardstock to create the ants. I also used a piece of red for the little watermelon slices and a piece of bamboo cardstock for the “basket”.

Here’s a closer look at the little ant sitting down and ready to enjoy his slice of melon.

Here’s a closer look at the cute little ant hanging off the picnic basket. Again, all of the cuts are from the Art Philosophy cartridge , Artiste Cartridge and my Cricut Expression.

Here is a look at the cute little ant paper piecing mat topper. If you need to learn how to do faces, you can check out my tutorial HERE.

Make any purchase from my Close To My Heart link and I will send you the instructions to create these adorable little ant piecings from your Art Philosophy cartridge and your Cricut Expression. No CCR, Design Studio or SVG files used. Just your Cricut Expression and your Art Philosophy cartridge and your Artiste Cartridge.

I used some cute red and white gingham ribbon and wrapped the two larger mats. I used one of the chipboard elements from the complements set. Photos will slide easily underneath.

The plenty of love chipboard element was another perfect embellishment for this page. I used some foam tape to give it a little lift.

Here is a little chipboard journaling spot I added as well. Enough room to write down a few special details.

Here’s a closer look at the little banner. I stamped the Summer Time Fun using the Keyboard Alpha Stamp set onto the little chipboard banners from the Complements set.

One last look at the entire layout.

Daisy Shaped Card w Skylark Paper

Hello crafty friends!

WHEW…. It’s been a while since my last post. I am so sorry. It has been a crazy busy summer thus far! So many behind the scenes things to take care of. I appreciate you sticking with me and checking in though! My grandson is here, my husband is off work, my son has been off work and my daughter has been in and out, so it has been a full and busy household this last week. Next week we shall get back to our regularly scheduled program. PLUS…. I have been working on a project that has taken quite a bit of time. I will be sharing this with you very soon! But for today, I have a really quick and easy card to share.

Here’s a look at my completed card. The shape came from the PCW SVG cut file set Daisy Shaped Card. The patterned paper is from the Skylark Paper set. This is one of the sets that will be retiring at the end of this month. The new Close To My Heart catalog is set to debut at the beginning of next month. While that is wonderful, there are still hundreds of fabulous products in the current catalog that will be "retiring”, so be sure to get them while you still can!

Daisy Shaped SVG Cut File

I used a stamp from the RETIRED For My Friend Stamp Set. I used my White Daisy Ink Pad and stamped onto some kraft paper.

For the centers of my daisies, I cut a circle layer in some more of the Skylark paper and then used a 5/8 circle punch and punched some circles out of the teal shimmer trim. The trim is self adhesive so it was a simple peel and stick. I then added a little bow to the bottom and done. Very simple to make. Love the clean look of the card.

I made this card for this month’s I FEEL The LOVE Project! Be sure to head over and check out the details and share your creative works of h(art). I can’t believe it is now going on 4 years since Madison and her mom Cindy began this amazing venture. Please, consider joining in and sharing your handmade creations with others. This month they are looking for general handmade blank cards that a wonderful outreach program can use to encourage participants as well as general unsigned birthday cards, etc. CLICK HERE to read the details!
