Retiring Products

This is the last month to purchase some of your favorite products from CTMH before they retire  on January 31 when the new Spring/Summer Idea book comes out. One of the items that I am sad to see being retired is the My Creations Display Album. I love these albums! I use them for my yearly Calendar album class. This means I have to stock up on them while they are still available. Hint: If you want to make the 2013 Calendar, Contact me and we can still do this workshop this month. 

These are some of the calendars I have done in the past with the My Creations Display Album. I love looking at my photos from the years and I use it as a Year in Review of my Favorite Photos.
 

Here is the list of the retiring items. Get them while they last!

Monogram Stamps!

Check out this new video from Close to My Heart about how to use Monogram stamps in your projects!





I bought these stamps to make this Hostess Gift for some of my customers. I copied this design from one of our talented CTMH Consultant. This card uses the "J" Monogram stamp.

I then used our new Cricut Artise cartridge to make this cute Magazine file to create a holder for the cards. Isn't it cute? I plan on making note cards as Holiday Gifts for my children's teachers.

Items used in this Project:

• Avonlea Paper Pack 

• Cricut Artise Cartridge (For the magazine file holder)

• Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge (For the scallop circles)

• 1 1/4 Circle Punch 

• White Daisy Cards and Envelopes

• Dark Chocolate Stripe Grosgrain Ribbon

• Monogram J Stamp

Hope you enjoy the project!

In this class I will also be teaching a technique where we will make the paper look "leathery" with water and ink.

The photos I used that were taken over the summer of my nieces and nephews when they were visiting us. It was one crazy summer with all 9 kids playing together all the time. I wish I had all these cousins growing up!
