The card I have created uses a bit of all but one of the B&T

papers from the Lola paper pack. I also added some

Lagoon and Gypsy cardstock for some added color!

I used the white seam binding and dyed it using gypsy ink and 

a bit of my round sponge. I finished this card off using

the Heartfelt Bday Wish stamp I inked in lagoon and gypsy

 and popped up on pop dots.

CTMH Huntington and Cardabilities #83

Good evening crafty friends! Hope y'all are

having a great weekend so far! We had some good rain

this morning that brought in a wonderful cold front!

I wore a hoodie today and I was super excited!

The card I have for y'all this evening I made following this

week's sketch from Cardabilities. I used all

Close To My Heart products in the exception of the 

embossing folder which is from Darice. I used the 

Huntington Paper Pack along with some added Olive

and Colonial White cardstock. I distressed the edges of

my background paper with the CTMH edge distresser and also

distressed over the embossed image using the sanding cube 

from the CTMH sanding kit. I then inked the edges with

Desert Sand ink and sponged some ink randomly over the 

embossed area. I stamped the sentiment from Always Grateful

in Olive and stamped the flowers from the National Stamping Month

You Are My Happy special stamp set which you can only get

until Monday in Stazon timber brown on olive, gold rush and red barn

cardstock and fussy cut them out and glued them together 

in a way where you can see a bit of all the colors. I finished off the flowers

by adding some Opaques Pearls and Durables Round Studs.

CTMH ProPlayer simple birthday

Good morning friends! It's almost the weekend!

Have any great plans? I think I will craft and go with

my sisters thrift store shopping to try and find 

some items for our halloween costumes!

Here today I have just a simple Birthday card suitable

for a guy of any age. I used the CTMH ProPlayer paper pack, 

a stamp from the Tech Speak stamp set, and the 

Heartfelt Bday Wish mini stamp. My card base for this

card is a 5.25 x 5.25 square. The ink colors I

used were ruby and pacifica.

CTMH Laughing Lola and Viva la Verve

Good morning friends! Hope y'all are having a great day!

I am having a better day today than yesterday that's for sure!

My hair dryer broke and someone slashed a 9 inch cut

into my convertible top so they could unlock my car

and go through my glovebox... Hope they had fun, not sure why 

anyone would do that for my tiny two seater with a glovebox

the size of my fist... nothing in there but a tiny hairbrush, bottle

of hair spray and my insurance info... Now it's going to cost $1k

plus to replace since you can't 'fix' a hole in rag top. Oh well,

insurance will mostly likely help a bit. Can't get it looked at

for 2 weeks so I have to figure out a patch job until then because 

it's going to rain this weekend... 

Anyways... enough of my whining, I have for y'all this morning

a card using Laughing Lola paper pack as well as some

gypsy and lagoon cardstock. I used the sketch from Viva la Verve

week 4 for this card. The inks I used are black, lagoon, and gypsy.

 I also used the stamp set from the Laughing LolaWOTG kit

for the flowers which I stamped in black on

colored cardstock then cut out. I used a bit of the black hemp

that comes with the kit for the ribbon and bow and a purple
