June Magazine Challenge



TERESA COLLINS SPONSOR CONTEST!

Teresa Collins is one of our favorites in our little Circle! We have featured her paper collections and Imagine Cartridge all through this month’s issue. It’s only fitting to use her designs in our contest this month! We invite you to create a project, layout, card or gift item using any of her paper collections, Imagine cartridge or Blingage. We would like it to have a celebration theme. Maybe an elegant birthday, anniversary or wedding.
Contest Rules: Use at least 4 Cricut Cuts from any cartridge in your design and at least 3 Teresa Collins products like her paper collections, Imagine cartridge, Blingage, albums or any other product she produces in your design. Contest will open on June 18th. Please upload a working link or picture of your project  to the blog under the Magazine Challenge tab. .  Please, one entry per person. Entry deadline is Friday, July 15th.  The winner of this contest will receive a Damask Décor Cartridge and Cuttlebug folder set!


My entry for this months challenge is a mini "Christmas In July" album. I wanted to do a Birthday theme but became inspired by all the holiday decorations for sale in all the stores. I just got the YourStory binder and have been itching to try it out. I now know I will need to educate myself more on this as my pages fell out the first two times! They are firmly glued in now I hope, (crossing my fingers). I used five different sheets of Teresa's Noel line - Tags & Borders, Black Damask, Definitions, Countdown, and Cards & Notes.  I adore her paper because not only is it pretty but is also a heavier  stock making crafting easier. My four Cricut cuts were from French Manor, Paper Pups, Sentimentals and Forever Young. I also did some stamping on some of the pages. I didn't  include premade mats because I'm not sure what size photos I will be using and will want to add more embellishments later.
