Close to my Heart isn’t just about
scrapbooking. You can create some
beautiful items for your home – they may just be beautiful pieces of art, or
they may be “display” memory keeping, or BOTH!
That’s what the Team Brae-er’s June Blog Hop is all about. Take a hop through our posts and see how my
fellow CTMH consultants have taken our products and used them to decorate our
homes!
ABOUT THE HOP

This is a circular hop so you can start here
and go all the way around.

HERE'S MY PROJECT: Later Sk8r Display Tray
Our Black Display Tray and Picture My
Life Cards go together so well. They
were just the colours I wanted to create a home décor memory keeping piece
about my son Charlie – and because the 4x3 cards fit perfectly in the 4x3
display boxes, it went together so easily.
I then used larger 4x6 cards and
larger photos to create focal points on the corners. I attached these over top of the tray using
Liquid Glass.
And then I embellished – shimmer trim, washi tape and white enamel stars were just the thing to add some pizzazz to this display
tray.
I have a large wall going down the
stairs and into my craft room in my home.
It is filled with family photos and this tray will be an amazing
addition to that collection.
** Funny story! I had this artwork on display at a vendor
show I worked recently. A little boy in
a Superman t-shirt (complete with cape) stopped dead in front of it. He pointed to the lightning bolt and said to
his mom, “Look! It’s the Flash!”. My hubby and kids are huge Marvel fans, so
this was a really appropriate comment.
It made me giggle. **
