March Card Club–Shaker Cards

Sorry I have been MIA for a while, but here I am with THIS month’s Card Workshop.

Sunday, March 26 from 2-5pm (that’s just 2 weeks away)

We will make 8 cards total (2 each of 4 designs) all with “shakers” in them.

This one is my favorite and uses the Emojis stamp set (C1669).

Are you wondering where the “Happy Birthday” on the first card came from? It’s the cut out from this card using the “Happy Birthday” Thin Cut (Z3304) that is on sale THIS Month ONLY.

This one might be my favorite because it was completely my design and idea (I usually scrap lift). It also uses the Operation Smile stamp set – True Love (D1711). For every stamp set purchased CTMH will donate $7 to this great organization.

This card is the only one that opens to reveal the sentiment on the inside, yet you can see it through the plastic of the shaker.

Wondering how I made the plastic shaker parts? Two words – FLIP FLAPS!!!

Join us for the workshop to find out more. 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.

Sunday, March 26 from 2-5pm

(Class is SOLD OUT – Kits are still available)

Cost is $25 to make 8 cards (2 each of 4 designs)

Register by Monday, March 13th

If you can't make it to the workshop, I can put a kit together for you. Add $10 if you would like it cut and stamped. Additional $5 if shipping applies.

Thanks for stopping by.

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
