September Stamp of the Month Blog Hop- Poster Tidings


Welcome to the Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for September 2013- featuring Poster Tidings


 

If you have come here from Michelle's Blog you're on the right path.  If you get lost along the way, you'll find a complete hop list at Helen's Blog!

Subway art is so fun! I have several up in my home for Holidays and family.

For my card, I used Huntington papers and assortment. I cut my own card base at 6x12 with Cashmere cardstock. I made a side fold and added some bronze shimmer trim. 

The fall sentiment was stamped in Autumn Terra Cotta, Olive and Barn Red ink, in a diagonal pattern. I wish I had some technical tip for you on how to do this, but really I inked the stamp in Autumn Terra Cotta in a diagonal at the top, then used Olive ink at a diagonal at the bottom 2/3, and added Barn Red on the bottom 1/3. 

I edged the stamped image with more bronze shimmer trim. And embellished with a leaf from the Huntington assortment, along with an acorn cut from Art Philosophy.

It looks like you stamped all three and then cut it on the diagonal! How clever!

~*~ Holiday Blog Hop ~*~

Welcome to the Paper Secrets Holiday Blog Hop. I made a couple of things to share with you today. I created this lovely paper tree by punching a LOT of 1 1/4" circles of Mistletoe Paper, then used pearl floral pins to secure them in rows to a styrofoam cone.  As I neared the top, I had to use some adhesive so that they did not flare out, but sit in the cone shape.  At the top, I stamped 3 stars and adhered them to the top of the cone.  Supplies: Styrofoam cone Pearl Floral Pins CTMH Mistletoe level 2 paper CTMH Mistletoe Creative Basics paper D1320 Shining Star Stamps I created a second paper tree using instructions from Tracey Mason .  I created an accordion flower with a stamped sentiment for my topper on this one.   Supplies: Styrofoam Cone CTMH Mistletoe Level 2 papers K& Co paper D1380 Just for the Holidays Stamps I created a total of four paper trees to sit upon my mantel!  The "subway art" was a free printable from eighteen25 ....

April Showers Blog Hop

Thanks for joining me for another weekend of Blog Hoppin Fun!   If you have come here from Tina's Blog , you are on the right path!  Keep on hoppin until the end :) April Showers is our theme, and I went with the "shower" theme and made baby cards for baby showers!  I am addicted to making these stacked present cards lately!  I first saw one that my friend Jayma made, who found it on Vicki's blog.  Recently, I saw a couple cute ones on Haley's blog too.   I cut my paper strips at 1.25 tall x 3, 2.25 and 1.5 long.  Add a ribbon down the center, or just a bow on top and you're set!  I used the Sweet Baby stamp set and Polka Dot Alphabet for my sentiments.   Now I'm all set for the next baby shower..... (though I don't know any preggos right now).   This design is also great for Birthday Cards too!!!!  I made two each of these cards and stamped Birthday sentiments on them :) Supplies: BOY: Miracle Level 2 Sweet Baby...
