My Favorite {CTMH} Things" Blog Hop! Valentine/love theme!!!

Our Playing With Paper team is sharing artwork featuring some of our favorite products from CTMH. If you have come here from Stephanie Chumbley's blog, then you are on the right path.

Today I have created Project Life cards using Close To My Heart's beautiful stamps! I love using our  high quality supplies to make project life cards! I can make lots of cards in advance and I can personalize my cards for what is going on in my pictures. Project life is a different way of scrapbooking. To do the Project life concept you just make 6"x4" cards and 3"x4" cards for filler cards and journal cards. I use Close To My Heart's page protectors that are made for six 6"x4" pictures. I slide two 3"x4" into one spot (or one 6"x4") and I fill all the spots with pictures or the cards. This look is much quicker than making one hole 12"x12" page or only a few pictures! You get more pictures and journaling in less space in less time. This is also much cheaper since you use less supplies! These are mainly all journal cards but some can be used as filler cards.

Project Life cards inspired by the Mojo Monday and the Heart2heart Challenges!

I have started using our amazing Close To My Heart products to do the creative concept of project life! CTMH's products match each other in a way that takes this concept over the top! Plus I love making my own PL cards. Our beautiful stamps make making fast cards easy! Just stamp at the top and it is beautiful, cheap, and ready for journaling.

My twist on the Whooo's Your Valentine kit

I hope every one had Happy Holiday's! I was hoping to have this on before Christmas... Happy New Year!
This is what I did different with a few out of the 12 treat tubes that come in the Whooo's Your Valentine kit! Instead of making all 12 into Valentines, I made some into cheap Christmas stocking stuffers! Check them out!

December's $5 SOTM!!! + a Sneak Peek!!!

Check out what I just ordered! December 2012 Stamp Of The Month is my favorite of the SOTMs so far! "Year-Round Cheer" is going to bring cheer to me year round (haha) because it has a phrase and picture for every month of the year! I can not wait to get this stamp set! I love how many holidays and themes it covers! I also love that I can use this stamp set for scrapbooking along with cards!

My All You Can Make Christmas Card Workshop!

 I wanted to share the easy and yet cute cards that made up my half of the 15 cards that everyone made at my friend's and my "All You Can Make Christmas Card Workshop"! Look out for my next workshop because I will have them available to ship to anyone who isn't local or who can't make the meeting!

 

These two you saw earlier on my team's blog hop. :-) Wasn't that nice!?! All those awesome projects from all those different creative people! I love our Monthly Blog Hops!

 

 

 

My apologies for the blue card being partially covered. It does show the amazingly easy adhesive sparkle ribbon used to make an adorable little bow on this card!

 

   


The stamping of the background on this  card does take less time if you space them out a little more but I like the look when they are tightly stamped, and wanted to show it that way.

 

 

 

 I like the sparkles on one side of the sentiment instead of the usual four corners. It is still more simple than I'm use. With there being allot of first time crafters coming to that workshop it worked well though.

 

The picture doesn't show it but I did add ink to the edges of the sentiment to this one to finish it off. If it was for me I think I would have added some twine to this one.

This was the first time I had done the three layered stamping technique! I loved it! I'm not sure if I'll be doing it for another workshop but I love the way it turns out!

I also can not get over how this very simple card, looks so complete with only a tie in a tiny bit of ribbon added to it!!! I will never underestimate the power of ribbon again! lol



 

I had some extras of each card after the workshop...so what to do with plenty of copies of cards? So these 5 of the 8 I made are being sold in my etsy shop as a set! :-) You can check out my Etsy shop and see if there is anything that interests you (there are very few listings currently compared to what all things and occasions I can do) or you can just message me and ask about a custom order (I hope that you will ask about anything you are interested in having made that you do not see)!

 

All these cards except for the blue one was made with the Pear and Partridge paper pack, the October stamp of the month, and the stamp set that came with the Pear and Partridge card workshop on the go. Shop with me here for your supplies to make either simple or unique creations! I hope you liked these simpler easier cards that take less time during this busy season and less still look adorable!

First Bag using Close To My Heart supplies

 

This bag is made using the Close To My Heart Moonlight paper pack. The cut outs were made using my cricut. The "best Day ever" stamp and the dots stamp used on the background are apart of this National Stamping Moth stamp set . This double set of stamps are still only $5 now until the end of September!

 

 

Notice that five of the windows along the bottom are small CTMH sparkles! Three of the dots up at the top have a sparkle placed on them also!

I am not positive what I plan to use it for just yet but it will more than likely be filled with special treats for my special someone to eat while we bring our will be 2-year-old trick-or-treating! This would be a very cute bag for treats for each of your children or grandchildren. It could be duplicated multiple times and then given to your class or to all the children who come trick-or-treating at your door!

My blog is new so I would be very thankful to have you as a follower! I hope you enjoyed this little project! Would love to hear your feedback!
