Artiste in August Blog Hop–Day 1: Magazine File

Welcome to the

I am so excited to be a part of this month-long blog hop featuring 3-D projects from the fabulous *NEW* Cricut Artiste Collection exclusively from Close To My Heart!

I am linking my project to the H2H Challenge Blog…

Today we are showcasing the magazine holder featured on pg. 47 of the handbook.

I cut the sides of the magazine holder using one of the B&T Duos from the *NEW* La Belle Vie paper packet at 5-3/4”. The base of the magazine holder was also cut at 5-3/4” using the La Belle Vie Mauve cardstock included in the paper packet.

I embellished the magazine holder with the *NEW* Colonial White Rosette Ribbon and Licorice Opaques.

This would make a great gift for someone special. Include a handmade card like the August Stamp of the Month card I made to write a special note in and then give the magazine holder with all the cards inside.

Here are the cards that are included inside the magazine holder…

I used the *NEW* My Acrylix ‘Words of Comfort’ and ‘Frame It Up’ stamp sets. All the frames were made with the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge & Cricut Artiste cartridge. I inked up all the papers with Desert Sand Ink to get the cards an antique look. There are also a few Mocha Opaques on each card.
