Saturday YouTube Video - Spellbound Halloween Party

If you host Halloween parties - I have the perfect kit for all of your party favors, including treat bags, cupcake liners, soda wraps and a BOO banner...it's the Spellbound Workshop on the Go kit.  This Cricut kit gives you most everything you need to create a ghoulish Halloween party for 8 guests...even including exclusive papers and a coordinating stamp set too!  The cute Spellbound paper packet is available only in this kit.

Sorry...I'm not hosting this particular kit in my workshop schedule, but with the instructional brochure included in the kit, I have no doubt you can assemble this kit on your own.  You'll need to set aside about 6 hours and you'll need the new CTMH Artiste Cricut cartridge to complete this kit.

Watch as Kristine shares with you the Spellbound Halloween workshop:
(This kit can be found on page 14 of the Autumn/Winter Idea Book.)

Contact me, or shop my website to get your Spellbound Halloween kit today!

Saturday YouTube VIDEO

Many of us are busy...so I wanted to offer you a chance to take a quick break from your weekend routine, and get those creative juices flowing.  I have elected every Saturday to be a day that I post a video from the many offered by Close To My Heart on their YouTube channel.  Make sure you check back regularly to watch them all!   Enjoy!

Today's video is one on Home Decor, including the NEW Advent Calendar and Scroll Album Workshops on the Go:

Project Inspiration - Coloring Seam Binding Ribbon

This seems to be a technique I've been sharing lots lately!  This product, the Color Ready Seam Binding Ribbon is just the ticket you need to add stunning color to your layouts or cards.  Check out this quick video:



Here's another option for you - using our Spray Pens, fill the spray pen to the 6th line (about 1/3 full) with Isopropyl (rubbing) Alcohol and a few drops of reinker (I used 10-12 drops) to the intensity you're looking for on your project.  Allow the ribbon to air dry, and because you used alcohol vs. water, the ribbon doesn't seem to bleed through onto your project.  Use caution when placing dyed ribbon next to photos, this technique may not be photo safe.

Spring IS in the Air...and on artwork!

It's suppose to feel like Spring today (and hopefully melt some of the snow!)...so when and I came across an Online Project Inspiration video using CTMH's Adhesive Springs (Z1725, $2.95)...I couldn't wait to share it with you.

Want to add more "bounce" to your projects and have elements "jump" off the art? Watch this video for some inspiration...I have to make the "Jack in the Box" interactive party favor!



Check out page 72 in the Spring/Summer Idea Book...you'll see the My Peeps (B1402, $9.95) stamp set used in the video. Here's a link to view the Idea Book online.

Project Inspiration - "ENJOY"



Have you noticed the "Online Project Inspirations" in the new Autumn Idea Book? This one can be found on page 86, along with the stamp set Hooray Bouquet (#D1491 - $17.95)...I love this set! You'll see how easy it is to cut out a variety of flowers using our exclusive Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge, stamp the blossoms with the Hooray Bouquet set, and curl the petals for more dimension and style. Give it a try!
