CTMH Precious Moments

I have been having so much fun creating with Close To My Heart's March stamp of the month: Precious Moments. My set didn't arrive until mid-March (my own fault for not preordering it!) and I didn't realize how much fun I would have coloring it! Here I used Copic markers for this sweet kangaroo. This …

CTMH Hedgehog Cuteness! Precious Moments SOTM

This card started out as a clean and simple card like the ones I created here. And then, as papercrafting "oopsies" tend to happen, my card started to evolve. First, after watercoloring this little hedgehog from Close To My Heart's March stamp of the month, Precious Moments, I decided to add a little blue to …

CTMH More Cherish!

It's so funny to me that I purchased Close To My Heart's Cherish Cardmaking stamp, stencil and thin cut die after the catalog ended. Why did I wait so long? I tried to tell myself that I didn't need another floral set ... but I did!! This is one bundle you won't regret adding to …

CTMH Thoughtful Critters Fun Fold

Cherish Stamp, Stencil & Thincut Die

It's no secret that I was late to purchase this whole set from Close To My Heart! I broke down even after the catalog cycle was over (which makes no "business" sense) and proves how much I love it. The Cherish stamp, stencil and matching thincut die set is on sale during Stamptacular for just …

CTMH Feathered Friends

I just love how this card turned out! It's from my recent card workshop and everyone's bird turned out slightly different but all were beautiful! This sketch layout is from Close To My Heart's Make It From Your Heart volume 4. It's probably my favorite and a good way to use up scraps! The bird …
