More old cards

The first 5 cards were from a workshop using CTMH Emporium papers. I loved that paper pack. It was fun to punch the circle designs out and pop them up- over the same design on the large pieces of paper. The last two pics were of a Mother's Day card I did for my mom.

oldies but goodies

 I have not had any time to create some new cards. Already 5 days and no post- so much for my pledge to be a good blogger. I will post some oldies but ones I really liked from older CTMH paper packs. Some were club cards and some from workshops.  I am planning to work on my November club cards this weekend so hope to post some new things then. This whole working for a living cramps my style.  I teach first grade in my real life and it takes up so much time.  :) Not to mention dragging my two children to their activities. Not that I am really complaining though. I'd have to say I have a pretty good life.

So these cards are from a birthday card workshop that was a bit more masculine focused.  I missed taking a pic of one of the cards in the group shot somehow. All CTMH products were used.

Scrap card # 5

The last scrap card- for now at least! I used CTMH Mistletoe papers again but created it as a birthday card. Cranberry and new england ivy inks, and some unknown bling from Michael's (it was on deep discount after Christmas last year). I did stipple the edges with cranberry (that were exposed on the bottom and top). The stamp set is CTMH but the name escapes me at the moment.

Card number 4 from scraps

Here's card number 4. It has those flowers from Michael's again with CTMH colonial white brads, A Timber stamp set and Mistletoe papers. I love acrylic stamps- I was able to curve the corner stamped image so it would fit on this card. It is a straight stamp.  I used some of the new CTMH opaques for the tree decorations.

3rd scrap card

Here's card number three.  This was put together with all strips and small scraps. All CTMH mistletoe papers, A Timber stamp set, new england ivy, sunny yellow and cranberry inks, colonial white brads. Stampin Up ribbon.

Here's the 2nd card from scraps. Once again CTMH mistletoe papers, A Timber stamp set, New England Ivy and Cranberry inks. Stampin Up ribbon and some unknown bling.

cards from scraps

I just cut up my October club card pieces and had a huge pile of scraps. Soooo I decided to make up some cards using mainly these scraps.  The following cards will be what I came up with.  You'll have to come back each day to see another one.  There are 5 altogether.
This first one uses the CTMH A Timber stamp set, cranberry ink, colonial white brads and mistletoe papers. The flowers are a find from Michaels in the bridal section. There are tons in this cute container. They are meant to be table confetti.  The color was so close to cranberry though so I had to try them.  The ribbon is Stampin Up.
