Birthday Card Using CTMH Say It With Style Special

Hello friends!  I hope you are doing well.  It is very cloudy in Southern CA today; but it does bring cooler temperatures.  

I have been creating a lot of cards lately, trying to use 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 Card 3 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 this card and then used the remaining plaid (I will post later) for another Slimline Birthday card.  The full plaid slimline is the bonus card (I am posting later) in the instructions. See links below listed under Supplies. 

I stamped my background with Mint ink using the cracked pattern from CTMH Design Elements D2196 (See link below).  I also inked my plaid circles and cupcakes around the edges.

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!

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.

All Occasion Card using CTMH National Stamping Month Card Creativity Special

Hello friends! I hope everyone is doing well.  Take care of yourself and enjoy your life as best you can.  I have been creating with my last 2 card kits and actually made time to create and to make a few videos.  I hope you will take time to watch them.  

This is one of the 6 cards in the CTMH National Stamping Month - Card Creativity Special.  There are many options to buy.  Buying  as a bundle saves you 25% and we have lots of choices for these items.  This kit is so fabulous!  I am in awe of all the stamps, thin cuts, stencils, background thin cuts, sentiments, etc.  CTMH created a very creative special for us.  The special is on through Oct. 31, 2022 or while supplies last.
