Timberline on the Paper Trail

Welcome to the Paper Trail blog hop!  If you came from Diane's blog, The Happy Scrapbooker, you are on the right path.  If you are just getting started, you'll find it's a circular hop and you'll end up right back here. 

This month we are featuring the Timberline papers from Close to my Heart.  Beautiful rich colors reminiscent of being in the deep woods, seeking adventure behind trees and in streams.  My layout this month is made to preserve just such memories. 





I've used several cuts from our Artbooking Cricut Collection on this layout.  The woodgrain overlay was cut at a 3.75x3.75." I layered it on a solid piece of cardstock and sanded, it creates a simulated embossed look.  The "Great Outdoors" is also on the Artbooking cartridge.


The Timberline Assortment is a collection of wood embellishments, the travel trailer shown here is just one of them.  The outdoor signs are part of the Timberline Complements.  I love these!


Moving along on the trail your next stop is Trisha Manhire's blog. She has something fabulous for you, I'm sure.

You can order items used in this layout from my website.  They are:
X7182B - Timberline Paper Pack
X7182C - Timberline Complements
Z3005 - Timberline Assortment
Z1906 - Artbooking Cricut Collection
