Just For You With Hearts and Flowers

Hello Friends!  How is everyone in blogland?  I hope you are doing well.  It is warming up and it will be in the upper 80's again here in Southern CA.  My favorite season of the year is Spring and Fall.  I love watching the new buds and the smell of flowers in the Spring.  I love watching the leaves change colors in the fall.  I guess that makes sense; because I love lots of color in my world!  What is your favorite season?   

I continue to create with papers and cards in my stash.  I love this special bookbinding fold card.  I have shared the video link above my card photo.  I still want to create more of these bookbinding cards; but right now I have 18+ cards already started.  I just can't help myself.  

At times, I create one card at a time; but sometimes it seems easier to work on several cards at a time, choosing the images, (colors for coloring if it needs coloring), printing, choosing the dies to use, cutting image, choosing the cardstock, ink and then choosing the paper or vice versa.  From there I complete my cards and then start working on the inside, choosing the paper, sentiment, ink and dies if needed; and then embellishments are last.

Supplies used to create this card:

All CTMH products are retired.  CTMH's last day of business was June 30, 2024.  I will continue to list the products and numbers; and will be using CTMH supplies until they run out. 

FYI: I am not promoting or selling any products.  I am sharing the products I used as a courtesy to the people who read my blog; and because many of the challenges now require a list of products used.

CTMH is out of business now; so my part as a CTMH consultant ended April 30, 2024.  I will continue using their products for as long as I have supplies.  They are still my favorite products and I will always have a place for them in my crafting and in my heart. 

Remember - Keep On Creating!!
It's Good For Your Health!!

  1. Such a great card Gloria! I love the hearts and how they pop off of the patterned background so well. I saved the video link and would like to try the bookbinding technique. I've never done one but have seen them. My favorite season is Fall. Unfortunately I love in Florida and it's never really fall here. I love orange trees, sweaters and of course pumpkin spice coffee. Thankfully my daughter lives in Wisconsin and I get to see her often. Thanks so much for sharing this cute card with us at Word Art Wednesday. We appreciate your talents!

  2. Definitely Spring for me Gloria, Nature in all it's wonder creating new life. Love the colours of Autumn but not the darker cooler days.

    Great use of your DP's and colour palette here, thanks for sharing another at Allsorts.
