Heart Happy Workshop

There is a brand new super fun special that started on December 15th and runs until February 28th, 2019. This special has so many possibilities. It can be used to help you celebrate Valentine's Day or celebrating someone you love!! I could hardly wait to get these products in my hands and create a workshop! I am so happy with how the workshop has turned out!! I feel that this makes the prefect complement to the workshops that Close to My Heart has also designed with the products. 


Here is a look at the workshop that I have designed......

Chris' Creative Club for the Seasonal Expressions 1

I wanted to let you know that I am currently taking registration for the next session of Chris' Creative Club. This one will feature all the Scrapbooking workshops for the Seasonal Expressions 1 Idea Book. 

Everyone really seemed to enjoy it last time so I decide to continue the club for this Idea Book, here is how it works..




Here is how the club will work and some more information. The idea is that you will pre-purchase the workshops guide for each Idea Book. Once you are enrolled in the club all the workshop guides for my Full Scrapbooking Workshops will arrive in your inbox as soon as they are complete. There will be no need to order each workshop  as each individual workshop is released. Plus as a bonus I am going to offer a discount!! The workshops that will be included in the first round of the club will be as follows-

  1. Soemthing Fierce Scrapbooking Workshop-ready to go
  2. I Heart Us Scrapbooking Workshop
  3. So Much Happy Scrapbooking Workshop
  4. Feels Like Home
Each workshop would normally be $12USD each but if you decide to join the Chris' Creative Club you will receive the 4 workshop guide for $40USD. If you currently purchase my guide individually don't worry you will still have that option.  If you have already purchased one of the workshops that have already been released but are interested in upgrading to the club, simply send me an email at crbb@mts.net  and I am happy to figure out the difference and send you an invoice. 

If you have any further questions please ask!! (email me at crbb@mts.net )

A Quick and Easy Treat

At this time of year it is so fun to be able to create a whole bunch of treats in a short period of time!! So I am going to share this fun project that I created on a Facebook Live (HERE). The container comes together so quickly and you can decorated it as much or as little as you want! Bring on the sour-cream......


That is what these little cuties are called sour-cream containers! Aren't they fun!! And to make it even more fun I created the pom-poms with Close to My Hearts twine!!




Here is the video of how to put the whole thing together!


Enjoy! Chris

A Scrap-lifting Kind of Day

Last week on the Corporate Facebook page and Instagram they posted a cute layout that featured the Mix-In paper. 




It was so cute!! I asked on my business Facebook page (HERE) if anyone was interested in watching me assemble the layout on a FB live and there was enough interest.

This is what I came up with......




 There was even a live crafting accident!! I survived and managed to finish without even getting blood on the layout!!



Here is the video-


Here are the measuements that I used.
 12x12 New England Ivy (lightside) for background, 0.25"x12", 0.75"x3". Mix-ins background 11.5"x11.5", White Daisy, 1.5"x12", 3"x3" (sentiment) and 0.75"x2.75" (top sentiment), (3) 0.75"x4" journal strips, scraps for stamping, 3"x4" Glacier, Grateful Heart and Hello Pumpkin paper and 0.5"x3.5" Grateful Heart paper, Fern 1.25"x1.25
