H2H66 Heart To Heart Sketch Challenge

Yeah! I'm so excited to be participating in this weeks sketch challenge. What a fun sketch! I used all CTMH product, except the little lady bug. I picked up that little cutie at a scrapbook convention last year.


This is my first time to use this stamp set, Baby Love. It is so cute and it's been sitting here by my desk just asking sweetly to be used for some months now. ;)


To see more examples with this sketch, please visit the Heart to Heart blog.


My camera is still missing, but my sweet Aunt is letting me borrow hers for a little while so I can still post cards and keep up on my etsy site. So that is a nice blessing.

Thanks for stopping by today! Now go bless someone with a card! ;)

CTMH Annotations (happy birthday) stamp set

Thanks so much for stopping by today! ;)

Life is like a Bowl of Cherries

I don't know WHY I haven't used this stamp set before!! It is seriously SO stinkin' cute! ;) I bought this I think last year from CTMH and I can't understand why it's taken me so long to use.


I was in a card making mood yesterday and had so much fun with this stamp set and the paper. One of my little neighbor girls was over and watching while I was making them and just laughed at me as my silly side came out. ;)


And to you I say...Have a Happy Day! Thanks for checking in with me today! Blessings to you!

Materials:
CTMH stamp set: Bowl of Cherries
Paper : CTMH Cherry-O

Cheery Summery Happy Birthday Card

The new Beyond the Garden Designer series paper from Stampin' Up! is so beautiful! It's just bright and cheery and happy. Lovely for making birthday cards! Almost makes me wish I had a summer birthday ~ but I wouldn't trade my September Sapphire birthstone for anything! ;)

The flower and sentiment are from two older sets of Close To My Heart stamps that I have in my stash. I hand cut out the flower after I also stamped it onto the card. Love layered looks. And the ribbon is also something I've had in my stash for a while.

I've listed this card in my etsy shop and hope someone will be very blessed by it.

Masculine Prayer Journal

Here is a masculine prayer journal I made and sold on Etsy recently. This is an oldie but goodie paper set from Close To My Heart. The rustic browns and blues make me think 'MAN' so I thought this would be good for a men's journal.


This 'prayer journal' stamp is from Clear Dollar Stamps. I've used it tons of times. Prayer journals are one of my favorite projects to make.


Again, Clear Dollar Stamps offer some of my favorite scripture stamps. I usually make three sections in my journals and stamp a scripture for each divider. It gives a really nice touch.


I print all the paper myself and coordinate the lined colors with my patterned papers. Details, details, details. I use the Bind it All to make my spiral binding. I am thinking of upgrading to the Cinch soon though. With as many journals as I make I think this may be a bit more user friendly.

Thanks for stopping by today! God's blessings to you!
