September Stamp of the Month: Treasures


Welcome to my blog hop contribution! Thanks for stopping by! I LOVE this stamp set! In the sample above, I used it to start out an album about my amazing summer. This is a work in progress. Check back to see what develops! The supplies I used for this project include:
NEW All Sorts Album
Fancy Cuts Botanicals
NEW Organics buttons
Creme Brulee ink pad
Tulip ink pad
Summer Sweetness Stamp Set
Free Spirit Stamp Set
NEW Treasures Stamp set (Stamp of the Month)




I also used it to create the card for the September Church workshop, which is scheduled for Thursday, September 17. I'd love for you to join us. It's a free class! We just ask that you donate 4 of the 6 cards we make to the church. If you are interested, email me so that I could email you a list of needed supplies to bring. Believe it or not, the only paper I used was Colonial White cardstock to create this card! Ink colors include: Sunflower, Chocolate, and Grey Wool.



Now hop on over to Nancy's blog to keep your creative juices flowing! If the link does not work, or if you get lost as you hop along, refer to the previous post for a list of all the participants of this month's blog hop. Enjoy the journey!

Correction--New Catty

In my previous post, I mentioned the pop-up candy holder was made last week. But my open house is actually scheduled for tomorrow, August 31. Oops!

New CTMH catty

I am so excited about the new CTMH catalog! Here are some cards I have made using new products, including new paper packs, new embellishments (such as glitter rub-ons and brads, felt accessories self-adhesive pearls, etc.) Enjoy!


And here is a picture of the candy pop holder we made at my open house last Monday. (Special thanks to Tresa Black for sharing a tutorial on how to make these adorable gifts!)


About Me

My photo
The most important things in my life are relationships. I value every title I own--daughter, sister, wife, aunt, friend. I feel so blessed to be able to add another title to my relationship collection--mom. I can't wait to meet my baby girls!
