The New Babycakes Paper!



The new CTMH catalog is now available to shop from! In celebration of the new catalog and all the new products I am participating in the new CTMH New Product Blog Hop. 


My absolute favorite thing in the new catalog is the new Babycakes paper pack. I love the versatility of this paper. Though CTMH intend for it to be a babyish paper, I feel the color combination allows for so much more! The color focus: Chocolate, Slate, Buttercup, and Sunset (which I absolutely love, and I don't usually like orange colors).

I created a simple 4" by 4" card using the baby cakes paper. With details including some light faux stitching and banners. See the full list of supplies below:



Creativity Helpful Hint: When making paper banners I find it is easier to cut a small slit in the middle of the paper up to the height that I want my triangle cut out, and then cut from each corner to the top of my slit in the middle.

You are always in my heart...

As a military wife I understand what it is like to be away from a loved one. This card was made using materials from past Studio Calico card kits and CTMH Whisper Ink and Desert Sand (mostly in second generation).
