CHA Amy Tan ~~ Rocking It!! - Cut & Paste....My Take

So all the new CHA releases have me really excited!!
So happy to see them hitting the stores too.

So over at the CKCB we are counterfeiting from our fav line
at CHA Summer 2013.

There were SO many to choose from.
I LOVE Maggie Holmes new collection "Flea Market",
as well as Amy Tans new line, Cut & Paste.

I decided to go with Amy's line and I'm SO very glad I did.
Here it is:


Isn't she lovely?
I mean seriously.....
Look at those bows and stamps.
Be still my heart.....


So here are the papers I chose for my line.
Why yes you do see a couple of Amy's other lines in there as well.
Thanks for noticing =)


I also counterfeited a few papers as well, like the speech bubble.
Oh my goodness ~~ how cute are these little stamps.
It made a lovely speech bubble paper.....


I mean seriously.....
These little dudes are SWEET~


Ok I know I know,
this looks crazy, but hang with me here.....
I stamped a background paper with all hearts,
to duplicate the one she has in the kit,
but this was the stamp off, if you will,
from doing the full sheet.  And I LOVED it so much
I'm gonna make a LO with it, so just thought I'd show
you what it looks like right now.  
Wonder what I can do with it?  =)
Oh and the actual background sheet?
Well it turned out so cute!!  Ummm....yeah, so cute
that I got it out and used it right away and forgot to take a pic of it.
Yeah, I'm cool like that.
SO.....I will be sharing the LO I did with it a little later this month.  


Ok, so onto this hot mess.....
I often look at papers and embellies and think 
"OOO I could do this with that!"
It's kinda the way my brain works. 
Its the same with music.  I hear something and think, "OOOO 
I could move that to a minor...."  Yeah, I know.....I digress.
Anyway.....
this was my take on the Bokeh.


And then here she is toned down a bit and dressed up
with a little Prima girl that Sir Cuteness helped me color.
Isn't she sweet?!!  Loving this stamp.


Good job Sir Cuteness (our Gbabe =)



Now, onto fabric photo corners.
These little beauts are so easy and fun to make.
I'm gonna get these on a LO and I'll share with the class when I do,
Oh and I'll put up a little tutorial as well.
Although, it will be very little as these take all of a minute to make.
Literally.
So fun and easy.



I thought these little hearts would make a GREAT edition to this kit.
Took some chipboard hearts, glue and glitter and 
VOILA!!!
That blue is Tim Holtz new Distress Glitter.
And let me just say.....
IT IS AMAZING!!!


Oh man this post is getting long.
My apologies.
If you are still with me,
PALEESE take a look at these tags.
One of my most fav elements from this kit.
This one I did using a pencil and my own handwriting
and then stitching.
Love indeed.


Oh this one.....
I took some hearts and put light adhesive on them to hold in place,
and then punched around them like so.
I know my mat is a mess.
Anyway.....




How much are you loving this Prima tag?
I mean seriously.....
Okay, here she is all punched out.


All stitched up!!  
How sweet!!!
I LOVE this technique so easy and fun.
This one will get a lot of mileage from me I do believe!


YOU MADE IT!!!!!
This was so much fun and I'm so thankful for such an amazing and
creative design team leader for coming up with such fun.
This Design Team Rocks!!!

I hope y'all have a Blessed and Beautiful,
Krafty, Kind of day ~~
