Timber - Cross Canada Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Cross Canada blog hop for the Timber paper suite. We are thrilled to have you joining us tonight as we hop along from consultant to consultant to see what they have done with the Timber paper pack. If you are joining me from Brae, welcome! 

I created this layout for my Timber monthly workshop. I was inspired by a fellow consultant Diane Antony who created a stunning layout very similar to this one. I used the concept of the triangles and just used the paper in different ways. Hers is also more outdoorsy and mine is just more for the men in your life. 




Products used:

Paper:
- Timber paper pack with sticker sheet
- Toffee and New England Ivy card stock

The right page has a 3X4, 4X6, and 3X4 with another 4X6 directly next to the other 4X6. My workshop pages typically have some stamping and other techniques but with doing porch drop offs for my customers I have been keeping them fairly simple for them to be able to complete at home.

Frosty Fun - Oh What Fun - Cross Canada Blog Hop

Welcome to our Cross Canada Blog Hop featuring artwork created using the Oh What Fun collection. To purchase any of the items seen in our hop today, contact your consultant to place an order, if you do not have a consultant, I would be happy to assist you with an order. 

We hope that you will leave comments along the way letting us know how or what you like about our artwork , we love getting feedback on our work. 

Chances are you hopped here from Diana's fabulous blog, if that is the case you are on the right track. If your starting with me you can start here and just follow the links in a circle but if you want to start at the beginning on the East Coast of Canada, visit Michelle by clicking here.




I created this layout as a copy cat of one I saw in a video that was done by CTMH for one of their training videos. I saw it in the background and just loved it, I saw the snowflakes and I knew this was the layout to introduce my workshop ladies to our texture paste with and it was a hit. This picture, I will be honest, is horrible and I apologize. I just could not get a good picture of it. The background paper is from Oh What Fun and is a Mint with white swirls. I added the snow flakes which I cut out from the CTMH Artbooking Cricut Cartridge to make a stencil and we added the texture paste. My workshop ladies, and I were all a bit intimidated by the texture paste and yet as we played with it, we found it oddly relaxing and everyone really enjoyed playing with it and really loved the affects it made. 

Products Used:

Paper:
- Oh What Fun
- White Daisy Card Stock

Embellishments:
- Clear Sparkles
- Ranger Opaque Matte Texture Paste
- Ranger Palette Knives
- Clear Shimmer Brush
