Chelsea Garden File Folder Card

Here is a video on the card that I made using the CTMH Artbooking cartridge and the Chelsea Garden Workshop Your Way.  You can easily follow along if you want.  Just pause the video and then play when you ready to move one.  It is a fun card to make and give out.  Here is what it will look like. 

I go off the screen in a couple of places so if you have any questions just let me know.  The knocking you will hear is my husband hammering out back on our deck.

November Kard Swap

Our November Kard Swap theme was Thanksgiving or Fall.  I did mine using the CTMH SOTM from September S1609 Blessed Beyond Measure.  I just love the Fall colors and all the Holidays that come with it too!
I had given out all my card from our swap before I took pictures of all of them.  So you will only get to see my mine.  Sorry about that!  Things just happen so fast sometimes or maybe my brain is just working slower these days.  I know you probably know the feeling.  Well some do anyway.  LOL!

Here are the cards that I made.

Here is the stamp set I used S1609 Blessed Beyond Measure.  Every month is a different stamp set and you can only get it for that month.  If you spend $50.00 or more you can get the SOTM for only $5.00.  This stamp set also has coordinating Cricut cuts from the CTMH Artbooking cartridge Z1906 for the leaves and the pumpkin.

I sponged the Leaves with Saffron, Poppy, Goldrush and Topiary to give them that Fall color look. The pumpkin is stamped with Goldrush.

Valentine Cards with CTMH

Just noticed that this was in my Draft folder.  I really liked how this card turned out.  So I am sharing it now.

Here are some of the cards I made  to get ready for Valentine's Day.  I used the Stamp of the Month for January 2015 which was Beloved Bouquet S1601.  I must say that this was one of my all time favorite.  Roses are my so beautiful and delicate.  Who doesn't like them.
I love to do Black and White and when I saw the Rose I knew I would try it in Black and White.

I also did them in several different colors too.  My favorite Rose is called Gingersnap.  I grew Rose Trees and Rose Bushes all along our Retaining wall in front of our house.  Between the heavy winds coming down the canyon and the Deer and our neighbors cows getting out I only had them for a few years.  They were to expensive to replace so I grow rosemary now in the same spots! Wow did I get off track or what?  That is just how my life has gone since my Mom passed away.  I can't stay focused or on track.  I am doing better but not over it yet obviously.  

Back on track, what do you think?  Black and White or color? The sentiment was done in Black and Poppy on the Black and White.  The color one is stamped in Pomegranate?

On the one's I did for my SWAP I used Pomegranate on them all.  I really like the pomegranate the best.

Paper Garden S1509 September Stamp Of The Month

I really like the SOTM for September Paper Garden S1509.  I have already used it on several cards and I love how it turned out.  I also used the MISTI stamping tool and a made a video using them both.
Here is the Card I made.  I needed 50 sympathy cards quickly.  So I got my MISTI out.  It was a birthday present from some of the ladies in my card classes.  They are so great.  This is a fun gift to get.

Here is the video I made it's very short!

I like that you can set it up with more that one design.  It really helps speed up the process.
First I stamped the wire mesh on the right hand side in Flaxen.  Then I moved the card to the other side

I then stamped in Saddle on the other side.  So simple right?

Here is the finished card.  I have all 50 of them ready to go and I love how they turned out.  I backed it with a piece of Saddle Cardstock and then placed it on the front of my cards.  All of it was done in less than a day.  I like that!!

August Stamp of the Month S1508 Framed

Earlier this month I went to the Scrapbook Expo in Santa Clara with a couple of my girlfriend and what a great time we had.  I bought way to much as usual but it was all for projects that I was working on and I will share them later when they are done.
