CTMH Chantilly Paper Packet

One of the reasons, I love CTMH papers is that they are absolutely so versatile.  Let me give you an example.  The new Chantilly paper packet (X7163B) is just filled with wonderful spring colors.  Buttercup, Blush, Pear, Sweet Leaf, Hollyhock, Ruby...all coordinate beautifully.  The other great thing is that they are double sided.  In other words, each sheet of B/T Duo's paper and a coordinating reverse side.  It is so cost effective!  So many times, you purchase a paper packet and the back side is white.  What fun is that in your scrapbook albums?  :o)  Also, double sided paper allows to to use up scraps more efficiently.


Here is a cascade card I made using less than a 1/2 sheet of pattern B/T paper!  The green in the middle fold is the reverse side of the brightly colored 1st and 3rd panel.  Look how great they work together and CTMH has made it so simple.  The guess work has been taken out of matching patterns.
Here is another card that I made using scraps from the Chantilly paper packet.  This card, because of the black base, has a totally different feel than the first card, don't you think?  The pinks and reds work beautifully with the black and yet it is still a bright and cheery card. 

One of the great things about CTMH is that everything coordinates so easily.  The stamp I used on the first card is actually a retired stamp from 2 years ago.  Look how great it coordinates with current product.  Once again, CTMH has a cost effective answer to our card making and scrapbooking needs....the products continue to coordinate and work together!  Stop by my website to check out the Chantilly along with the other great CTMH papers.  For Now, Happy Crafting!
