CTMH Base and Bling

Good afternoon crafty friends! Hope y'alls weekend is going

fabulously! So I just received by box of brand new Close To My Heart

goodies from the new Spring/Summer idea book! I was

so excited when the door bell rang at noon! Knew it was the

mailman! I gave him a big wave when I pick it up off the porch!

He probably thought I was weird...

Anywho... Even though I was busy getting cupcakes made

for my nieces birthday party that's here in a bit I had to crack

that box open! I also decided real quick i would put together one

of the new base and bling necklaces! Love it so much!

So many options with these! Loved how my first one turned out!

These new products will be available for purchase February 1st!

VLV and CTMH with For Always

Good morning crafty friends! Hope y'all are having

a great week so far! Mine's going well! We have had

some folks put in applications for our rent house! Hopefully 

we can decided on someone over the weekend and get

a contract signed! Then on Sunday, we are going to 

look at a house for sale that I absolutely adore!

I hope we can buy it! Did I mention I will get my own 

craft room?! I'm so excited! And the hubs of course

will get a fab man cave that I am already designing for him

with fabulous finds from Ikea! No better place

for awesome office furniture!

Anyways... I wanted to share a quick card before I

head off to work. For this card I used the January week 2

sketch from Viva la Verve. I used paper from 

Close To My Heart's For Always pack which is now retired.

So sad, I just love black and white!

 The base of the card is the smokey plum as well as 

the honeycomb embossed portion (a Darice folder).

 I stamped the cake and bride and groom from the Happy Couple 

stamp set in black ink and cut them out. I used a Nestabilities

die for the slate scalloped circle and the circle with

the For Always paper. The sentiment is from Verve.

Viva la Verve and Huntington

Good Monday morning my crafty friends!

Hope y'all are had a great weekend! Mine was

 good. Plans slightly changed but it was good though. 

I thought I'd share a card with y'all though 

real quick before heading of f to work!

I used the January week one sketch from Viva la Verve as well

as some Verve stamps and dies. The paper is from 

Close To My Heart's retiring paper Huntington. I love it!

It's the fall-ish paper but obviously can be used for other things!

The ink colors I used were Barn Red, Olive, and Goldrush.

I added some Opaque Pearls for a bit of bling!

Good Saturday morning crafty friends! Hope y'all are

having a great weekend so far! My plans have

changed a bit since yesterday... Cleaning the rent house

this morning then going over to my parents house to shoot

guns and bows! That's how we roll in OK!

the Sarita paper pack, one of my favorites! Love the colors!

company. (First is CTMH of course :-) The Ink colors

I used were Outdoor Denim, Goldrush, Lagoon, and Gypsy.
