Gone, but not forgotten...


Sadly, my last post was in February.  And since it's been a long time since my last blog the website has changed =/  Change is good, I keep telling myself and it makes me grow =)

After attending the 2012 CTMH Convention in Dallas, TX I am fully charged and ready to embrace all of the wonderful changes that Close To My Heart has in store for me and my customers (or blog stalkers - LOL)

Right now, I am in the process of unpacking my supplies that I had to take to convention and I plan to post pictures of my April 2012 workshop (yes, I feel I must post pics before I can move forward).  Then, I will post pictures of the awesome create and take projects I completed at convention.

Sooooo.....stay tuned!!

October STOM: Holiday Magic


These two cards are my October STOM Swaps (S1110 Holiday Magic)

This 4 3/4 x 3 card is using "Center Accent" from Originals.  The technique on this card is the use of CTMH's Glitz Glitter Gel in Silver, Bronze, and Red.  I love how the Glitz Glitter makes my cards POP!


This 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card is using "Lucky Three" from Originals.  Again, I used the Glitz glitter Gel in Silver to add ornaments to my Christmas Tree.  I also love how the chunky Sweet Leaf Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon adds dimension to my card.

October 3-Card Workshop

 We will create 3 Halloween Themed cards for October's 3-Card Workshop.

This 3 x 6 card is using the Diamond stamped image pattern from All Hallows Eve.  This was a "free form" pattern and can be found on page 74 in the Fall / Winter 2011 CTMH Catalog.  The card used in the catty is what inspired this card.  The All Hallows Eve is a cricut-friendly stamp image.  The image is cut at 1 1/4 and the Barn Red matte is cut at 1 1/2.  I also used the Glitz Glitter: Silver to add a little sparked in between the Diamonds.

******************************

This 4 3/4 x 3 card is using "Noteworthy" in Wishes.  Again, I created a random stamped image using the Diamond stamp.
******************************

This 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card is using "Done Right" in Wishes.
