November Stamp of the Month Blog Hop- Illuminate

Welcome to the Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for November 2013- featuring Illuminate



If you have come here from Susan's Blog you're on the right path. 


How cute is this stamp set??  It shines bright, sparkles & shines.  The possibilities are endless :)
Today I have created a card using the Sparkle & Shine papers, Black Shimmer Trim & Illuminate!
To create this card, I stamped the Lightpost image with black pigment ink on the Juniper cardstock.  Then I stamped the lantern on a white piece of cardstock, colored it with Cranberry Marker, and used foam tape to pop it up.  I punched the black shimmer trim with our new Scallop Border Punch.  The sentiment is from a former stamp of the month along with Sparkle & Shine from Illuminate. 
On one side of the Circle- I stamped the dove image in Ruby.

My ladies created this card at last night's Holiday Card Class :)

The next amazing CTMH Consultant on our hop list is Sheila's Blog. Take a look at what she's created for us this month!

CTMH- Everything ABC's Blog Hop- E is for Easter

Welcome to the Everything ABC's Blog Hop! For this hop we will be featuring the letter E. This may be the name of a paper, a stamp set or an embellishment. Whatever the crafter has chosen as their E element will be featured in their post. If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start at the beginning at Amber's blog ~ Scrapper's Therapy  If you came from Shelly ~ Just One Piece then you're on the right track! E is for EASTER You may recall a few months ago, I posted a couple layouts from the baby album I am making for my niece.... well she's now 3 months old and I only finished through 4 months!  I have some work to do..... Today I created an Easter Layout using THIS layout as my inspiration.  The Chantilly paper pack is perfectly girly and springy!  I cut two strips of the green pattern, then sliced it up to make it look like grass.  Using Art Philosophy, I cut out a bunch of different eggs in 1 1/2", 1 3/4" and ...

CTMH- Washi Tape Card

Do you WASHI???   Washi Tape is one of the new and super trendy products being used.  I'm not afraid to jump on the bandwagon :)  CTMH now has a Slate Polka-Dot Washi Tape (and I HOPE there are lots more to come!!!)  I also have picked up a couple others at Michaels recently. This weeks Color My Heart Color Dare is JUNIPER.  I decided to use Juniper as the accent color for my card today. I used the black banner stamp set from Artiste Kudos , CTMH's Slate Washi Tape , CTMH's Silver Shimmer Trim and a black arrow washi tape.  The sentiment is from Artiste Birthday , stamped in Juniper, then popped on foam tape. A simple card like this, called for some dressing up of the inside too.  I stamped Happy Birthday from Perfect Fit Birthday and added some Slate Washi Tape to the bottom. Head over to Color My Heart to check out the other color dare entries :)
