Layout Using Creative Cuts And More - Hinge No. 04

Good Monday morning everyone!!! Fern here, and I want to show you how I used just one of the many die cuts you can get from Creative Cuts & More... I am using the Hinge #04 in Whitestone - Neenah Smooth on this cute layout of little Grandson Colten.. (My little Bug Boy... Grandma just better not find any of these in her house!!! lol) I embossed the hinges with my cuttlebug Distressed Striped Embossing Folder and then I rubbed some Mememto Rich Cocoa Ink over it.. I love the way they turned out..

You can also see that I added some tiny copper brads.. Which I should add, the holes were already there for me.. How easy is that!!

See how large they are, the perfect size for a layout.

You might be surprised on how many things you can find over at Creative Cuts & More that can also be used on your scrapbook layouts..

So, what are you waiting for.. go check it out! :o)

Thanks for dropping by!

Have a great day!

Doodlebug Baby Projects

I'm a big fan of the cute, whimsical designs from Doodlebug... and I love that everything coordinates.

TIP: Did you know that Bazzill Criss Cross textured cardstock is dyed to match Doodlebug products? Takes away all the guesswork and makes coordinating a snap!

My card uses several of the dies from CC&M -- 5-1/4" - Square Window Card #01 - Border Windows, Heart #02 - Large with Layer, and Photo Corner #02 Set, all cut from the Criss Cross textured cardstock -- plus Doodlebug stickers, gemstones, and patterned paper.


The box was created from several CC&M dies also: Tall Gable Box, Heart #02 - Large with Layer, and Photo Corner #02 Set, all cut from the Criss Cross textured cardstock -- along with Doodlebug stickers, gemstones, and patterned paper.

I made two enhancements to the flat cardstock stickers (hippo & turtle) that were used on the projects. I used the EK Success Powder Tool to neutralize the adhesive. This allowed me to put pop-dots on the stickers so they'd have a little dimension. I added more interest to them by adding the self-adhesive jewels. Now they really pop!
