April Scrapbook Group Pages using Miracle

Happy Sunday All!!  I thought I would share the 6 pages that my scrapbook groups will be making this month.  All 6 pages are created using the sweet papers from "Miracle".  I added Clear Buttons as an "extra" embellishment that group can purchase to add to their pages if they would like, but they are not necessary to complete the pages.  

I was pretty happy with the way these turned out.  One thing I love about this paper pack is it does not scream boy or girl or really anything too specific.  But after the first 4 pages were done, I had a hard time coming up with the last 2, which ended up being my favorite pages of all 6!  Funny how it all works out in the end.  I will focus this week on finding pictures to put on these pages this week.  I have a few ideas.....just need to search through the endless files of photos on my computer and if I can't find any there, I have plenty of albums to search through......lol 


Is it just me or does this pic look smaller than usual?  Must be that it is longer than my card pics.  HHMMM  If you would like to see it a bit larger, just click on it.  These pages look a bit odd without the photos......but will look super cute when all the blanks are filled in!  The Pinwheels were created using the stamp set that is included in the "Miracle" Workshop on the Go Kit.  The Kraft Color Ready Borders are ALSO included in the WOTG kit.  


This 2nd set of pages uses the coordinating "Miracle" Stickease.  My scrapbook group kits always include the coordinating stickease.  The first 2 pages that we create focus on stamping and a new technique.  The last 4 pages that we create focus on using the coordinating stickease and an added embellishment that is not included in the WOTG kit.


The last 2 pages are my personal favorites!  The LO's for all 6 pages were taken from the Magic Book.  This is a LO that I have been wanting to make, but was not sure about all the punched circles.  Since CTMH came out with the 1 1/4" circle punch, it made creating this page SO much easier!!  Inside each punched circle is a Clear Button.  

Supplies used: 
Paper: Miracle WOTG Kit
Stamp set: Miracle Workshop on the Go stamp set
Inks: Heavenly Blue, Chocolate, Sweet Leaf, Desert Sand
Embellishments: Kraft Color Ready Borders, Miracle Level 2 Stickease, Clear Buttons
Tools: CTMH 1 1/4" Circle Punch

Thanks OH SO much for stopping by!!   If you live in the Omaha area and would like to create these pages, our group meets each 3rd Friday of the month at 9am or 7pm.  There is ALWAYS room for guests!!  Contact me to reserve a spot for you and a friend!

Hope this has inspired you to visit one of my scrapbook groups OR find a local CTMH consultant to see what kind of classes they offer!

Happy Scrapping and Stamping!!

How about some unfinished scrapbook pages??

I say unfinished as they do not have any photos on them YET.  These are the pages that my scrapbook groups made yesterday.  It was SO much fun seeing the different ways that the "girls" used the papers from the "Wings" Level 2 Paper Pack!!  We all cut for the same 6 pages, but because we did not use all the papers from the kit, some "girls" used different papers or flipped them over to use the back side creating completely different looking pages.

I will be looking for pics to go on these pages this week.  I have SO fallen behind in making sure that I have photos on my pages BEFORE group night!  And I was doing SO good for SO long.  But the past several months I have been struggling to leave the house to do something other than go to the gym.  Not that I need to even leave the house to scrapbook as it is ALL here for me to work on.  Just been a GREAT FUNK and I am trying SO hard to get out of it........

ANYHOO......enough about ME!  Let's move on to the pages!  These first 2 pages are from the brochure that comes with the "Wings" Workshop on the Go kit.  The only thing that I changed on the WOTG pages was I used VersaMark and Black Embossing Powder on the stamped images.  If you click on the pages it should bring them up bigger and you can see the detail a bit better.




The second set of pages were shown in the "Inspirations" brochure that was released in January as a sneak peak into the new catalog.  Since we use the coordinating My Stickease in each of my monthly group kits, I used those on these 2 pages instead of the stamping that CTMH had on their pages.  The scalloped banner was created using the NEW 2" Scalloped Circle Punch that CTMH sells!  The scalloped border at the bottom of the pages was made using a template from the "Magic" CD that comes with the book.




The last 2 pages were all my own!  Well, not the actual LO because that is in the "Magic" book.  But I guess all else was my ideas........Not much explanation for these 2 pages.....The scalloped edge on the right side was done using a corner rounder without the guard on.



Supplies Used: 
Paper: Wings Level 2 Paper Pack
Stamps: Wings Workshop on the Go Stamp Set
Inks: Black Ink for edging, VersaMark for the Emossing
Embellishments: Wings My Stickease, Black Mini Medley, Black Folded Ribbon, Black Embossing Powder
Tools: Heat Gun, Paper Piercer

Thanks SO much for stopping by!  

I hope that I have inspired you to either start your OWN scrapbook group, OR look for a Close to my Heart consultant that holds scrapbook groups each month.  This is a GREAT way to get pages done and learn NEW techniques!  NOT all CTMH consultants create 6 pages each month, but I am sure that you will be able to find someone that suits your scrapbooking needs!!

Happy Scrapping and Stamping!!
