'Thank You' Card for CTMH Fresh Air Fun Challenge Entry

and Collage Photo from July Workshop

First, this post shares a Thank You card for Heart2Heart's Fresh Air Fun Challenge. The succulent is the only item that is not CTMH as it was a Cricut 'print and cut' design. I think it goes well with these colors, don't you? This is an A2 card. The papers I used on the card base from top down are 4" x 1.25" (treetops); 4" x 1.5" (light wood grain with arrow); and 4" x 2.5" (horizontal logs).

I have been having so much fun with the Fresh Air papers and embellishments. This card is made from bits and pieces left over from my scrapbook and card-making workshop earlier in the month. I love that you don't have to waste any part of your Workshop Your Way kits. You can just keep creating beautiful things until they are all used up.

Second, here is a collage of some of the scrapbook pages and cards made during the workshop:

Here are the products I used to create this card:

Close To My Heart cardstock colors used:

• Fresh Air Paper Packet (card background layer)
• White Daisy (card base)

Other Close To My Heart supplies used:

• Bone Folder (to fold card, and press foam tape down)
• Bonding Memories Dual Action Glue Pen
• Micro-tip Scissors
• Fresh Air Stamp + Thin Cuts - Cardmaking (sentiment)
• Acrylix Exclusive Stamp Pad in New England Ivy (sentiment)
• New England Ivy Burlap (embellishment)
• My Acrylix Spritz Cleanser and Stamp Scrubber (care and maintenance of stamps)
• Tweezers (to place small pieces/embellishments on card)

Also used:

Today's post is an entry to the 'Unwind & Relax' CTMH Challenge at Heart 2 Heart Challenges and 'Machine Die Cutting' Challenge at Three Amigos Blog Hop Challenges. Here is the Heart 2 Heart challenge:

To answer these design challenges, I used all CTMH products with the exception of the one blue watercolor-effect paper and the bronze glitter. I used the Scallop Border Thin Cuts for the edge along shoreline, Fresh Air Stamp and Thin Cuts for the sentiment, and No Worries Stamp and Thin Cuts for the umbrella, chair, sand detailing and starfish. Then I used the gold shimmer brush to add highlights on the sand, and the bronze glitter to make the starfish really sparkle. 

Close To My Heart products used:

• Thin Cuts: Scallop Border
• Stamp + Thin Cuts: Fresh Air Cardmaking
• Stamp + Thin Cuts: No Worries Cardmaking (retired)
• Cardstock: White Daisy, Fresh Air Coordinating Paper Pack (Toffee)
• White Cards and Envelopes Value Pack
• Tools: 3-D Foam Tape, Bone Folder, Adhesive Runner, Bonding Memories Dual Action Glue Pen, Micro-Tip Scissors, Tweezers, Liquid Glass, and Shimmer Brush - Gold

Other products used:

• ColorBok 75386 Spray Paint Cardstock Paper Pad 12" x 12"
• Recollections Glitter Set (Bronze), on hand
