Tuck It In, People!

Good Monday morning! Are you ready for another great challenge? If so, then we'd love to see what you create using an envelope in your artwork. Envelopes are fun to play with - you can create mini albums with them as well as use them for pockets on cards or layouts. If you'd rather not use an envelope, then create something with a 'tuck' instead. 

Be sure to follow the basic rules below but most of all, have fun with the challenge!  Here's our Guest DT Famida's very interactive layout.  Be sure to check out her blog for more photos of all the secret tucks.

Heart2Heart Challenges Rules:
  1. Use Close To My Heart products.  Your project doesn't have to be 100% CTMH, but you must use some.  After all, this is a challenge blog created and sponsored by CTMH consultants.
  2. Incorporate this week's challenge...Tuck It In!
  3. Link your project back to Heart 2 Heart from your blog or online gallery.  If you are linking from a blog, you must link directly to the actual post, not your entire blog.
  4. You also need to mention Heart 2 Heart (H2H) in your blog post.  
  5. Finally, we ask that you consider turning off word verification, as it makes it easier for the design team (and others) to leave comments.
Can't wait to see what you create!

Tag! You're It!

How about those LOVEly creations last week? Thanks to everyone who is joining us.  Remember that you have all month to play with any of our February challenges.  This week's challenge is TAGS.  Tags come in all sizes and have a variety of uses. You can use tags on a card, on a scrapbook page as an accent or journaling spot, on a gift box/bag, dangle on a door knob, make a tag mini album, etc. Another great thing about tags is you get to use up some of your scraps. So grab your favorite paper pack and those scraps and start building some tags for this week's challenge.

This week our "A" Design Team has created some amazing tags.  Please click on each designers' name to learn more about their project on their blog.  First up is our guest designer, Rachel. Thank you so much Rachel for your awesome inspiration!

And here is the rest of our amazing design team...







Now it's your turn to show us your Tag because You're It!  Be sure to use mostly CTMH products and link up below. We can't wait to see what you come up with! Don't forget you have all month to enter your project for February.

Ribbon Challenge

Thanks to all of those that played along with us for last week's challenge honoring Dads.  If you didn't get a chance to play along, it's not too late. You have until the end of the month to submit your project in order to be considered for June's Top Ten.

This week's challenge is to use a staple of every crafter's supply stash....RIBBON.  All you need to do is use ribbon on your project.  It's probably safe to say, we've all done this, so we'd love to see you kick it up a notch by using two or more different ribbons on your project, but it's not required.

What is required is that you...
  1. Use mostly Close To My Heart products, though it doesn't have to be 100%.  
  2. Use at least one kind of ribbon on your project.
  3. Post your project to your blog or other online gallery.
  4. Come back here and directly link to your blog post, not your blog home page. 
  5. Mention Heart 2 Heart somewhere in your blog post indicating that you are playing along with us and link to our site. 
Failure to follow the challenge rules will disqualify your project and your link will be removed.

* Please consider turning OFF word verification for your comments as it makes it much more time consuming for our DT members to leave you comments.

Up first, our Guest DT, Laura:
