CTMH Technique Blog Hop - Passionate about Pockets

Hello and welcome to CTMH's Technique Blog Hop. This week our featured technique is "Passionate about Pockets".


If you have just joined us you can start here and continue on, as this is a circular hop or if you get lost along the way you can start at the beginning with Melissa's Blog as she has the complete list. If you came here from WITH ALL MY HEART & SOUL you are in the right place. Now on to my project:

Did you know we now have Pocket Plus page protectors? It's awesome. They are 1/3 or 1/2 page memory protectors that allow you to add extra photos but still use it as part of your layout. I decided to test them out and absolutely love how it turned out. Something different and unique to add to the pages.






 And here is a closer look at the Pocket Plus pages. As you can see I put the embellishments on the outside of the plastic. Again, something different. I also made tabs for even more fun.




Supply List:
Pocket Plus Pages Design 4
Magical Paper Pack
Magical Complements
Marker Alphabet Stamp Set
Cranberry & Black Cardstock

New Products Blog Hop - Annual Inspirations

Hello and welcome to CTMH's New Products Blog Hop. This week we are featuring our awesome new Annual Inspirations.


If you have just joined us you can start here and continue on, as this is a circular hop or if you get lost along the way you can start at the beginning with Melinda's Blog as she has the complete list. If you came here from MY CREATIONS WITH MICHELLE you are in the right place. Now on to my project: 

So there are quite a lot of new products in the Annual Inspirations. At a first glance you might feel underwhelmed but fear not! CTMH has a plan! There are are actually lots of possibilities with the new lines and this catalog is meant to be a basic reference book. All the paper in here can be used for year long themes and different varieties of occasions. The new Holiday Expressions that will go live September 1st will have your themed paper packs. :) 

Anyways I started playing a bit with our products and new colors. Before I got my new paper I made this page to showcase the new Adventure palette by using our watercolor paints and mixing to try and get the new colors.




Next I tried out the new Enchantment fundamentals and our new French stamps. Yes, We now carry some translation stamps! It's so exciting!



Here are a couple layouts I made using a wide mix of product to test out the beautiful new heart thin cuts! I absolutely LOVE these hearts! Notice that beautiful blue-green color? It's our color of the year, called Sea Glass. It is a stand alone color that doesn't fit into any palette but is beautiful on it's own!
