Card Club–Twinkle Cards in November

♪♫ It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas ♫♪
If you are in a retail store this is so true. 
I seem to never have enough Christmas Cards so this year I decided to have 2 classes.  That’s right if you missed my October Christmas Card Class then here’s your second chance.
Cards 11 - CTMH October SOTM Twinkle (1)
I got a lot of inspiration from other consultants while surfing the web one day.  Also, have you seen the October Stamp of the Month.  Be sure to get yours before the month is over.
15-10
There are so many great images so I made this entire class with just 1 stamp set.  That’s right – I only used the October Stamp of the Month, Twinkle, to create these cards.

Isn’t this card so neat.  Instead of using the ornament as an ornament this consultant put 12 of them together to create a poinsettia.  (Sorry, I can’t remember the consultant that made this as they didn’t watermark their photos.)  What’s even better is that the ornament is a cricut cut and you can get exactly 36 ornaments on 1 sheet of white daisy cardstock.  Just enough to make 3 cards.  Perfect!

I love the simplicity of this card and the minimal paper that it used.  This card was created by the amazing Lynn Como.  She’s the one who choose the color combination of Cranberry and Glacier for these cards.   If you prefer a more traditional look you can simply use a different pack of the Fundamental Accessories.

Sarah Stone combined both the light bulb outline stamp with the solid light bulb stamp to create this card.

Last, an original creation by yours truly.  I had to be sure to use the other cricut cut image from the stamp set and use up a few more embellishments from the Fundamentals Assortment Glacier.  You will get an entire pack of this for the class. Aren’t they awesome?

Even if you aren’t local or can’t come to the class, I can mail you a kit that will include my cutting diagrams, instructions, and pictures.
So who wants to join in the fun?

June Card Club–Sympathy and Get Well

Happy Memorial Day Weekend!  I hope you are taking some time this weekend to thank those that have fought for our freedom and remember those that lost their lives defending this country.  This weekend is so much more than bright sunny days, grilling food, and spending time with family.  I hope you enjoy every aspect of it. Perhaps these cards can also brighten your day. These are the cards that we will create at my June Card Club on Thursday, June 30 from 6:30-9:30pm . Per requests from my regular attendees, I chose to focus on sympathy and get well cards. This card features a retired stamp set, Kiss It Better , but I really wanted to use it. I love how the band-aids act as closures to the ripped card front. This card is much easier than it looks.  The flower is just circles that have been folded.  I added a stem from our Artiste Cricut collection (which is retiring on July 31 by the way). Having a bad day? This card is sure to brighten it and give you some encouraging wo

June Stamp of the Month Blog Hop–Ice Cream Dream

Yeah!  I am finally getting a chance to participate in another blog hop.  We have 50 Close to My Heart Consultants participating in this month’s Stamp of the Month Blog Hop .    If you lose your place along the way the complete list of participants can be found here.   If you have come here from Kathleen Androlewicz’s Blog you are on the right path. The June Stamp of the Month is entitled Ice Cream Dream (S1506) (Set of 7). Here is a picture of this stamp set. I chose to make a card with this stamp because I thought it would be perfect for a birthday! I chose a pattern from our How-To-Book, Wishes: Simple Side View .  I love the cut-out on the front of the card to reveal a little bit of what is inside. I colored the ice cream truck with some of our ShinHan Markers (Peony Purple, Warm Grey 4, Tender Pink, Turquoise Blue, Golden Yellow, and the Blender for some shading). Then I simply added some of our new washi tape from the Carnival Washi Tape pack (Z3067), s
