Nov 2012 CTMH - Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

Welcome to our Stamp of the Month blog hop!  Whether you're starting your journey here, or you hopped over from Mary's Blog, you're right on track.  Just look for the links at the bottom of each post to hop your way through all the fabulous creations.

This month we are featuring S1211 Capture the Date.  This set is perfect if you are part of my calendar group.  It has three different sizes of numbers.  You can use the same numbers for the entire month or highlight a day by using the larger numbers.



On the December calendar page below I used the medium sized numbers.  



Here is the top part of the calendar featuring the Pear and Partridge Paper Pack.   We have had so much fun working on the calendar pages this year that we are going to do them again next year!  Please let me know if you'd like to order kits for next year.




Now it's time to head on over to Traci's Blog to see what she has created.

Paper Cupcakes Artiste Blog Hop

Welcome to the Paper Cupcakes Artiste Blog Hop.  Today we are featuring the Thanksgiving key on the Close To My Heart Cricut Artiste Cartridge.

Whether you're starting your journey here, or you hopped over from Linda Taylor's blog, you're right on track.

I had so much fun playing with the items on this key.  Instead of going with the traditional shades of Thanksgiving, I used the Clementine paper pack and went with some lighter shades.  (Does anyone else think of Holly Hobby when they see this paper? - I know, I'm dating myself. LOL)

Here's a little collection of items I created that could dress up your holiday table.



I also created a video to show you how easy it is to create the 3-d box.  Please let me know what you think!

CTMH Halloween Display Tray featuring Moonlight Complements

I was so excited when I saw all the fun Halloween supplies in our Idea Book/Catalog. It was really hard not to immediately begin creating!  I know it's still a little early, but October will be here before you know it and October 1st is the day I start decorating my office!

This project was so quick, easy and fun and I am making it EVEN easier for all my customers.

All you have to do is buy the display tray ($19.95) and the Moonlight Complements Dimensional Elements ($4.95) and I will provide the paper, cricut cuts, and close-up photo needed to complete the project.

You can easily personalize the project by putting photos in a couple of the sections instead of the decorations.

When you are done you will have a few elements left over that you can use on your other spooky projects.

CTMH Sept Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

Welcome to the Stamp of the Month blog hop.  Whether you're starting here, or hopped over from Angela's Blog, you're right on track.  Just keep following the links and you'll see all the fun samples we have to share.

I think my favorite thing about this adorable set is....I got to use my new markers to color the images.  I am loving our new markers!!  They are so easy to use.

Instead of going with the traditional fall colors, I switched things up a bit and went with some lighter shades.  I used the colors in the Clementine Paper pack.

This month I also featured a fun product that we often forget about...photo storage pages.  The storage pages are perfect for quick and easy scrapbooking.  You can simply slide your photos in and be done, or you can add some patterned paper and dress it up.
