Here are some Christmas Tags I made with

Close to my Heart Stamps

It's November, Thanksgiving time again.  I won't be having a card

class this month, but will be having our monthly crop

November 28th & 29th. Hope everyone has a

nice Thanksgiving & we will see you later.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone.

This card was made using a window die cut.  The tree stamped in the window was stamped using the CTMH Always Grateful Stamp Set.  The wreath was made with a leaf punch along with the leaves on the window sill.  The leaf stamp on the window sill and the wording Fabulous Fall was stamped with the CTMH Blessings of Autumn Hostess Rewards stamp set C1634 from the annual catalog.

                                    Just a simple card using the CTMH Fall Harvest Stamp Set.

This card is a simple card using the CTMH Blessings of Autumn Hostess Rewards stamp set C1634 in the annual catalog.  I also used the CTMH Bronze Glitter Tape.

I made this Halloween Card using the CTMH Christmas Village stamp set stamping each house in a different color, Then I used the Frightfully Fun stamp set B1453 in the Holiday Expressions catalog. Tied a bow with orange bakers twine.  I popped up one the trees.

This is a Halloween card I made using the CTMH Trick or Treat Sweets stamp set B1460 in the Holiday Expressions catalog. I also used the CTMH Coral & Green Shimmer tape you can find in the annual catalog.

Happy October Everyone

Halloween is almost here.  This month's crop is our Halloween Crop Oct. 24th & 25th so dress in costume if you like.

The pictures below are the cards we will be making for this month's card class.  We will be stamping & using the Cricut.

I'm also working on some Thanksgiving cards to make as well.  It will be fun.

This 12x12 scrapbook page was made using the Close to MyHeart's Halloween paper from last year & this year's August Stamp of the Month. Also, I used the Close to My Heart Artiste Cricut Cartridge for the pumpkins, leaves & other accents.

This Disney 12 x 12 Page was made using the new Zoe Workshop on the Go Kit.

These two cards were made using the Hello Life Stamp Sets, Zoe Paper Packet & Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge.
