In The Spotlight

I made this card using the "In The Spotlight" technique.

I used the CTMH "Sweet & Lovely" stamp set...which is one of the stamp sets included with the CTMH Artbooking Cartridge.   I stamped the flower heart stamp around the card in black ink, except for the center flower heart.  I stamped that in cranberry ink...then colored it in.   The frame around the the colored heart is cut out using the Artbooking Cartridge.    I also added a little black flower to it that is from the CTMH Fabric Necklace Kit.

Double Fold Pocket Card

 All products used are Close To My Heart.

I have made a double fold pocket card.

I used the Huntington Paper Pack, the rose is from the Flirty Complements Dimensional Elements, and the flower heart stamp is from the Sweet & Love stamp set (which is one of the 3 stamp sets that come with the Cricut Artbooking Cartridge package.)

For the first pocket I stamped on the flower heart and then attached the rose element to the top left hand corner.   For the second pocket I hand wrote a personal message.

Here is a picture of the card and both pocket inserts:

New Baby

I used the Babycakes Paper Pack & Babycakes Stickease Assortments.
The whale stamp and the Whale, what do you know? A New Baby is CTMH Exclusive Stamps set called New Baby...stamped with CTMH Exclusive Inkpad Chocolate.

Merry Christmas card using Cricut Artbooking

Made this Merry Christmas card using the CTMH Cricut Artbooking Cartridge.

I used the papers from the CTMH Sparkle & Shine Paper Pack.

I also used CTMH glitter gems and bakers twine.

I used four different designer papers to cut out the trees, the Christmas bulb, the snowflake and the words Merry Christmas.  I used red cardstock to cut out the reindeer.
