January Card Class

 These are the cards we will be making for the card class I'm having tomorrow. I used the "Typeset" paper pack and the Art Philosophy cartridge.
 On this card I used one of the stamp sets that come with the Art Philosophy bundle. I used Vineyard Berry ink, some Hemp and the button brads that are unfortunately no longer available.
 This card uses the Happy Birthday stamp set as well as the January Stamp Of The Month (SOTM) called Little Reminder. You can buy the SOTM for only 5 dollars with a purchase or $50 or more in CTMH supplies. I also used a star from the milepost shapes and inked it with Vineyard Berry then I punched 2 holes through it and added some hemp and tied a knot.
On this card I used the A Little Thanks stamp set. I also used the Art Philosophy again to cut my flowers at 3/4 and 1 inch from and added some Opaques Pearls to the centers.
If you have any questions feel free to email me or to purchase any of these products just click on the name of that item or click HERE to be taken to my Close To My Heart website :)

Skinny notes

 I made these for a friend who requested specific colors she wanted for her friend and mother. She loved the small notebooks and thought they would too. All DCWV paper and the oval is from Alphalicious cut at 1-1/4. I printed my sentiment on the computer first and then used the "center point" function to get the oval cut around it, then I cut the scalloped ovals on coordinating cardstock and added a little brad to finish it off. I also unscrewed the pens and rolled up matching paper for the inside of them as well! :)
 this is what they look like inside, I added a little matching paper at the top of the note pad before I stuck it on the cardstock :)

Christmas gifts for teachers and friends

 I wanted to post these real quick since Christmas is over I'm sure no one is interested but I thought they were cute and turned out great. I saw this little saying on Pinterest and decided to go with it after I found these cute scissors at walmart for 2 bucks. I figured since I was doing a lot of them it would be the most cost efficient gift this year. The kids teachers all got one and LOVED them, as well as many friends. So here you go...

Cricut Expression and E2 covers

I made these a couple months ago for my Cricuts, I thought they needed some cute covers so they wouldn't get dusty. I bought this fabric at Walmart over the summer and just never used it but knew I had to have it at the time :)
The blue is the Expression
 This green is the E2, I'm not sure exactly how to fix the top part so it fits better so if you have any suggestions please tell me it's driving me nuts and I tried a few things but they didn't work...
 Here they are together on my desk!
