Silver & Gold:  Merry and Bright!




Welcome!  Wow!  I can't believe Thanksgiving has come and gone!  Thankfully the excitement continues with heartwarming gatherings among family and friends throughout our Christmas preparations.  I love how this joyous season encompasses all of our senses!  

I'm excited to show you my "Merry and Bright" layout made using the beautiful Silver & Gold Creative Collection.  It is a limited edition, available through December 31 or while supplies last.  

The Silver & Gold Creative Collection is simply elegant with gorgeous gold foil accents and a black, pebble, pewter and white daisy palette.  Lovely!  Although four of the papers are designed specifically with Christmas in mind, the others could easily host New Year's, engagement or anniversary photos.  In fact, the simple black lines on white shown here, could even be the background for school layouts!  I really love and appreciate this versatility!  

Our Merry and Bright title is a one of the included Picture My Life cards.  So quick and easy!  I added a few sparkling Gold Glitter Gems, and Silver & Gold Complements to finish it off.  

My layout is designed to feature eight photos along with the ever important journaling.  Please include this element of telling YOUR story within your memory books.  Hide it under a photo with a Flip-Flap if you'd like, and feature more photos!  So many options!  
To add a little finishing touch to this layout, I used a mix of the Complements, which includes coordinating stickers, silver and gold glitter die cuts, and two 1-inch self stick badge buttons, as well as the pretty Gold Glitter Gems.    
I love how the neutral colors of black and white absolutely come to life with the sprinkling of gold accents.  How festive! 

This beautiful Silver & Gold Workshop Your Way Kit is shown here.  If you'd like to create more with this collection, pick up the coordinating paper pack, which includes 3 sheets of Gold Glitter, Black, Pewter and White Daisy Cardstock.  Each of the components of the Workshop Your Way Kit are also available separately.  Remember, for any of the Workshop Your Way kits, when you order directly  from me, you will be prompted to download a cutting guide for pages and cards!  😊  Woo Hoo!  Scrapbooking and Stamping -- faster, simpler and easier!


Next week I'll wrap up my walk through this lovely Silver & Gold Collection.  

During December, the beautiful  Through the Year calendar workshop is available as a kit, while supplies last.  Detailed cutting instructions are included when you purchase this discounted kit from me at Papercraftingwithgayle.ctmh.com.  I look forward to showing you some of my monthly pages.  


All materials used (and so much more) are available from me at Papercraftingwithgayle.ctmh.com.

Thank you so much for visiting!  You are appreciated! 

Until next time --

Joy Scrapbook Layout


Welcome!  As I prepare my home and kitchen for the upcoming Thanksgiving feast, I'm also delighted to show you scrapbook pages I made for my upcoming Silver & Gold Scrapbook Workshop.  We will be creating our layouts using the Silver & Gold Workshop Your Way.  



I will also be offering an optional Silver & Gold Card Workshop for fellow card makers as well!  If you would like to have your papers pre-cut, just send me an e-mail to arrange your prepayment.  

Remember, for any of the Workshop Your Way kits, when you order directly, you will be prompted to download a cutting guide for pages and cards!  😊  Woo Hoo!  Scrapbooking and Stamping -- faster, simpler and easier!

The Silver & Gold Creative Collection is simply elegant with gorgeous gold foil accents with black, pebble, pewter and white daisy.  Lovely!  Four of the papers are designed specifically with Christmas in mind, yet the others could easily be used throughout the year for a multitude of occasions.  I really love and appreciate this versatility!  

Our beautiful Joy title is a sparkling Gold Glitter Die Cut, included in the Silver & Gold Complements. 
The Complements include coordinating stickers, silver and gold glitter die cuts, and two 1-inch self stick badge buttons.  

I love how the neutral colors of black and white absolutely come to life with the addition of the Gold Shimmer Trim and Gold Glitter Gems.  How festive! 

I made this layout with the upcoming joyous Christmas Season mind, yet it could easily be the background for New Year's, engagement or anniversary photos.  Enjoy!

The beautiful Silver & Gold Workshop Your Way Kit shown here also has a coordinating paper pack, including 3 sheets of Gold Glitter, Black, Pewter and White Daisy Cardstock to create even more!  Each of the components of the Workshop Your Way Kit are also available separately.  


A quick note before I go today, the Stamp of the Month, "Through the Year" can be yours for only $5 during November with a qualifying purchase.  Each month is written in an fun, upbeat font, and the 16 icon stamps are simply delightful!  Wonderful for planners, calendars, job/lesson charts, papers, cards, and on and on!  



A little hint -- it will be great with the beautiful Calendar Workshop that will be available in December. 😉  

Also, through November, ALL of the Fundamental Bundles (Paper Pack, Ribbon and Complements) are 40% off!  If you are only wanting paper, ribbons, OR complements from theFundamentals Collection, they are 30% off.  This is an incredible discount, so if you are interested in any type of papercrafting, now is the time to stock up for yourself or for gift giving.  They are all available at Papercraftingwithgayle.ctmh.com.  

All materials used (and so much more) are available from me at Papercraftingwithgayle.ctmh.com.

Start Each Day With A Grateful Heart!


Welcome! I absolutely love this sentiment -- Start each day with a grateful heart.  It is a wonderful reminder for each of us, especially during this month of November with Thanksgiving just around the corner.  Our square card shown here is  stamped with New England Ivy and colored with Watercolor Colored Pencils.  

To add a touch of sparkle, I used  my Clear Shimmer Brush and for the finishing touch, Bitty Sparkles.  




I've been giving this stamp a workout as I make cards for friends and family, as well as a page for my ongoing Words of Wisdom mini album.  I look forward to incorporating it into family scrapbook pages as well.  It will also be one of my favorites featured at my upcoming November Seasonal Card Buffet.  💗



For our second card, I stamped with Nutmeg, one of the colors in the newly redesigned Basics Palette.  So fresh!  Again, I enjoyed coloring the design with Watercolor Colored Pencils.  For a touch of sparkle, the Gold Shimmer Brush and Gold Glitter Gems were used here to complement the Gold Glitter Paper.  


I used papers from the Basic and Enchantment Fundamentals paper packs  and coordinating cardstock.  Through November, ALL of the Fundamental Bundles (Paper Pack, Ribbon and Complements) are 40% off!  If you are only wanting paper, ribbons, OR complements from the Fundamentals Collection, they are 30% off.  This is an incredible discount, so if you are interested in any type of papercrafting, now is the time to stock up for yourself or for gift giving.  They are all available at Papercraftingwithgayle.ctmh.com.
