Hello and welcome aboard our Summer Vibes Australasian Close to My Heart Blog Hop. If you have arrived here from ArtyMaz then you are in the right place. If you landed here by accident, no problem, please join in by following the link at the end of this post. 

Today I would like to share with you some creations which features Close To My Heart Featured collection “Summer Vibes”. On this dreary winter day in Melbourne it made me feel a little bit warmer just working with these fun vibrant papers.

Whilst the name suggests “Summer” I wanted to continue working with photos that I’ve been scrapbooking from late 2014 – thus they were a mix of winter, spring and summer photos. So I used the colours as a guide rather than a theme.

When I first started working with the Summer Vibes paper collection I create the Summer Vibes Scrapbooking Workshop Kit. Part of this kit (photos towards the bottom of what those layouts are) involved cutting out a large heart. So for this layout I used the scrap surrounds and stuck it down onto a piece of lemonade cardstock. The flowers were fussy cut from other scraps. In the kit there is an exclusive piece of patterned paper that you don’t get in the normal Summer Vibes Paper Packet. I used the leftovers of this glacier hatched piece to thin cut the title. I’ve raised the photo and title up on 3D foam tape for some extra dimension. This layout is going to be the cover page for the album for the second part of 2014.

The next thing I created was my version of some layouts in a Consultant Designed Workshop that I have access to thanks to CTMH and the resources that they provide us to use with our customers.

Here is some of the other artwork created using Summer Vibes from the CTMH studio. The first photo is the Workshop Kit that I talked about.

This exclusive Summer Vibes Paper Collection is only available until the end of August. while stocks last. The Scrapbooking Workshop Kit can be yours for just $A62.  Individual components can be ordered from your CTMH consultant. If you do not have a consultant please contact me or place an order here.

I’d love you to leave a comment before heading off to the next stop – Passionate About Pages.

Until next time, Happy Crafting
