Anniversary Card Using CTMH Cherish Paper and Slimline Pattern from Make It From The Heart Volume 6

Hello friends! How are you?  It is beginning to feel a little cooler, but still not Fall weather.  LOL!  I hope you are enjoying your weather wherever you are.  

I created 2 more slimline cards; so this is one of them.  I used Pattern 31 in our new CTMH Make It From The Heart Volume 6. (pages 66 and 67).  It takes me a while to create cards; but having a pattern really helps. You can use these patterns to create any size card.  Just because it says it is for a slimline doesn't mean you can't make an A2 card with the same pattern.  I may try that next.

I was in a special launch yesterday for our new CTMH catalog that is coming out November 1st.  It is so awesome!  I didn't have time to take photos of the two cards I had created earlier this week.  

I am creating cards for my sister, Alice, so she can give them to her friends.  She writes poems; so having the card already created for her will be a big help.  She doesn't have all the tools and products that I have.  I offered to make some for her; so she won't continue to hurt her back and neck.  This anniversary card is going to a friend of hers that I know as well; so that will be fun.  Her friend will be shocked to receive a card from both of us.  LOL!

Click here for my new CTMH Videos. I added CTMH Workspace Wonder products to my desk a few years ago; and I was not able to use my video recorder on my desk after I did that.  It took me a long time to finally come up with a way to do videos with that same recorder; but on a different arm/holder.  Thanks for your patience.

Birthday Card Using CTMH "It's Your Birthday" Stamp & Thin Cuts

Hello friends!  I hope you are doing well.  It is sunny in Southern CA today; but it has been cooler temperatures the past few days.    

I have been playing with my new CTMH products.  I created this card with the new CTMH Say It With Style "It's Your Birthday" Cardmaking workshop guide.  You can purchase the products you want individually or at a discount in a bundle.  The guides are on my CTMH website, so you can save them to your computer.  I also print mine; as it is much easier to work with.

I had a lot of fun creating two slimline cards with this set.  This card is the bonus card in the instructions. I used the CTMH Plaid Card Front Stencils CC9239. There are 2 - A2 stencils and 2 - slimline stencils.  I used the Slimline to create a slimline plaid background, cut out the 4 circles to create the previous card and then used the remaining plaid for this Slimline Birthday card.  So one plaid slimline becomes 2 slimline cards.  See links below listed under Supplies. 

I finish most of my cards inside; but the inside I created could actually be used for a front.  LOL!  I just have fun creating both front and inside for my cards.  I use the cardmaking instructions as a guide; but rarely create them as shown.  LOL!
