Ornament Card

 I love this die set from last year, which is also still available online only. Andrea Sherman created a beautiful card and I set out to recreate it, using what I had. The bow is from Artiste, rather than a die. (You must own the Close to My Heart, Artiste image sets to use the Cricut file.)


Have an amazing day!

Just Believe

I love discovering unused stamp sets again, totally loving the Spruced Up sets from last year! And they are still available, online only, from my website, which I love! The Paper Pal Christmas set is also still available. The Just Believe is from an upcoming set, Jingle Joy, which is available Nov 1st!


I hope your day is amazing!

Had fun combining two new loves ... the Cattitude stamp set (plus other cat stamp sets I had) and the new Waterfall die.

You've Got This!

I made this card using the Close to My Heart Image set, Flower Market and Close to My Heart Image Set, You Are Here. The backgrounds are cut with the Stitched Rectangle dies which I love! The ribbon is embossed with a retired CTMH embossing folder.


 

If you look on the Online only, Tools, part of my website, the You Are Here and the Artistry physical cartridges are still available and for only $60.25! Each come with 3 coordinating stamps sets. What a great deal!

I would love it if you are interested in purchasing any of the Close to My Heart Image Sets, if you would use my affiliate link. The link takes you directly to the Close to My Heart Image Sets. You may also purchase any other Cricut products while there. It helps support my small business in a small way at no cost to you :)

Have a great day and go book that mammogram you've been putting off!

Gnomes

 Another love of mine are Gnomes! And we have t three sets available right now ... this one is from Gnome Matter - it is also available with just the stamp set alone.

The layout of the card was inspired from Erica Edney on Facebook. Love her work!


Have a great day!

Creativity in Motion - National Stamping Month September 2020 promotion

Finally had a chance to sit down and figure out and play with the Creativity in Motion promotion ... watched a few youtubes and then gave it a try ... not as scary as I thought, haha! Ah fear of the unknown, never as bad as thought, right?!

I made two fun cards and more are percolating in my brain so will come, I'm sure! Also a preview of the October stamp of the month which I used for the sentiments. Black ink and Pansy ink (retired) were used.


I did a quick video to show you how it works, it was filmed one handed so not the best but you can at least get the gist.




Enjoy your day!

Cattitude

 Hello!

Have I mentioned I love cats?! Perhaps you didn't know that about me, ha ha!

Anyway, CTMH has a new stamp set out called Cattitude which I love and can't wait to create more with. These cards are just the beginning of many I'm sure!



Have a fabulous day!

Stitched Hexagons

 Hello!

I recently did this page because I was thinking of our beautiful Isobel, who we lost Aug 26, 2019. It is so hard to believe that it has been a whole year already. She is still greatly missed.

I used various sizes of the Hexagon dies with different pieces of scraps.



There are 5 different sizes which will be so fun to play with!

Enjoy your day!

Waterfall Cards

 Hello!

The new Core catalogue has just come out from Close to My Heart and they have hit it out of the park, I'm excited to share artwork with you ... starting with waterfall cards, created with the new Waterfall die. These were just created for me to work out exactly how to use them and loved how they turned out! I can't wait to make more!





Have a fun day!

Spinner Cards

Have you seen these spinner cards?!

CTMH has introduced the dies in our Jan/Feb 2020 catalogues and I am happy to say they are continuing them in our new Mar/Apr 2020 catalogue which goes live on March 1st!

Here are two cards I have made with them and I look forward to creating many more in the future! Imagine the many possibilities!





Instructions can be found here though there are several different ways of doing them I've found.

Too fun!

Make some fun memories today!

~ Christine :)
