Share the Season's Blog Hop

You have arrived her from Judy Faye Gamer blog.  

Welcome to the Close to my Heart Share the Seasons Blog Hop!

The possibilities with this set are so endless!  If you get lost while cruising the hop just click here to get the complete list.
  Here are a couple of cards I have made with this set along with the New Hawthorn paper and a retired Christmas pack called Tis the Season!

For the Christmas card I used Cranberry paper (also retired) to cut out the base square piece and then I used White Daisy to cut the largest frame from our rectangle thin cuts.  I used our now retired Alcohol markers to color in some of the stamps.  Don't forget to check out our new markers!

Keep scrolling to see the next two cards!

In the picture of the rectangular thin cuts the white pieces will give you a solid piece, I use that with a smaller one in a different color for the inside of my card.

 On my next card I used the fall stamps, I used our new Hawthorn paper along with Saffron and our new Paprika ink!  I love the piece of paper I used for the frame on this one.

To show use how endless the possibilities are I made another card with our new Every Little thing paper pack!  I just love how it turned out.

I used our new Wisteria paper with the black Frame and the September Stamp of the month!  Which is awesome.  I hope you enjoyed my cards and don't forget to look at all of the other blogs on the hop!

The next persons blog is Alyson Mayo.

Memories in the making!

    Happy Saturday!  Today I want to share with you the Cut Above Calendar kit we have for our September Promotion at Close to my Heart.   This kit is so fun and easy to put together.  Best of all, at the end of the year or as the months go by, you can rip off the pages and put them in an album.

https://paperdivas.closetomyheart.com/ctmh/promotions/campaigns/1809-nsm-memories-in-the-making.aspx.  Just click here to see all of the options that are available.     You can get the kit with or without the stamp sets.  But the best deal is with the stamp sets.

This is the cover page!

This is the entire kit!  So much fun stuff and all you need is a tape runner and your versa mat or a ruler to put this all together!  Click here to see the versa mat and tape runner and all of our other tools you might like to have.  https://paperdivas.closetomyheart.com/Retail/Products.aspx?CatalogID=240

Now I am going to show you all of the other pages completed.  I used foam pop up dots to raise up some of the pieces!

Aren't they so cute!!!!!

Well that's all for today!   I hope you enjoy your weekend!

Hugs,  Ronda
