September Gift

This month I decided to make a Gift using the Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge and the elegant Sonoma Paper Pack. The box is the fry box. The embellishments and cards are made using Art Philosophy also. I will also have instructions with Cricut settings so you can make more at home.

Our 1st gift for Christmas


You can choose to make this cute little tag box this month with cards. It uses Believe. Our new cardstock B&T's are perfect for these adorable boxes. You can't see it in the photo, the box has a clear lid.

May and June Cards

 As you can see I'm behind in Blogging. These are the Club cards for May and June.
 This is an easel card using Bliss and Twilight.
 This Bliss card has an embossed die cut from pipe tape in the plumbing or automotive section of the store. We can make cards from anything!
 This card uses Lucky and a Kraft paper card base. Image is stamped then embossed.
 Again Lucky with outdoor denim embossing powder for the letters.
 This card uses Sweetheart and the Bargello tech. Flower is made with the pompom ribbon it the pink collection.
 The trick to threading the pears is to punch the slots then stamp the pears, same with the heart.
This is a card pattern we have done before, this time with Spring up stamp flowers and paper piercing
Mayberry and the circle punch did this flower.

PAPER CRAFT GIFTS

I went to our annual Heartprints retreat in Boone Friday. The Heartprints is the CTMH team I'm a part of.
We had a secret sister gift swap (steal). Here are the gifts I made.
This cute little frame uses some of the flower techniques we will do in April.

This is an altered canvas using Wings papers, pleated ribbon, embossing, Stickese, and Opaque gems.

April is all flowers!

All of the ideas for our cards for April came from.....the Idea Book! So as a bonus this month I will have a drawing for those a you who find the page in the Idea Book the card came from, that is potentially 5 chances in the drawing. So get out your Idea Book and find the inspiration cards!
 The flowers on this card is made with satin ribbon and a simple running stitch called the U stitch. Don't you just love the new buttons here I added a new pink sparkle instead of floss or Waxy Flax.
 The flower on this card is super quick made with wired ribbon and another button and sparkles.
 This card uses CTMH new ribbon pack, the rose is cut from the ribbon. How quick is that. Did I mention I love the look of buttons and sparkles.
 Here we will be making a ribbon rose with CTMH grosgrain ribbon and some twisting.
Our last card for April Club uses the paper flowers in a new way to create a fun look.

March Pages

For the March pages we are using the Wings workshop on the go. 



It's difficult to  see, the butterfly openings in the wings have packing tape on the back then prisma glitter it give a beautiful translucent sparkle.
