Close To My Heart Zoe Blog Hop

Welcome to our "Zoe" blog hop, if you arrived here from Shaunna's blog  you are in the right place, it's a pleasure to have you stop by. Zoe is one of the new products in the 2015/16 Annul Inspirations Catalogue which will be available for early purchase this month. The new catalogue will be released in September.



I have used the Zoe Workshop on the Go G1096 for my projects. The papers, stamps, and compliments are beautiful and it is available for early purchase this month. There are lots of great stamps in this set and I looked forward to using them. I decorated one of the Display Trays Z1570, inspiration for this project came from the CTMH Make It From the Heart site. I also used the Seaside Greetings stamp set D1609 and Treasured Friendship set C1594 as they complimented these photos  perfectly. The Glacier Extra Thick Twine Z3039 was used to make the fishing net in the bottom right corner.



I have also made two cards using the Zoe papers and the inks recommended for this set. This first one was a lot of fun to do, creating a scene was easier than I thought. I love all of the papers in this set, they are so colourful. Various stamp sets were used to make this card.


This card is a really easy one, the circles are cut using the cricut and the Happy Birthday stamp is from the Happy to be Friends stamp set C1605. The little flowers are made with punch which I have had for a number of years, and the Bitty Sparkles Z1263 look so pretty.

    I have to agree that I too wouldn't have thought of these papers in a beach theme - and yet they work so well! Thanks for sharing!
