Welcome to our CTMH Festive Friday Blog Hop!!! This is month 2 and I am so glad that you have decided to join us again and check out some festive crafting!!! You will see creations made for all sorts of holidays using NEW CTMH product!
Please leave comments as we enjoy hearing your feedback! Now on to our hop!
If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start here as this is a circular hop, but if you want to start at the beginning please join Diane at "The Happy Scrapbooker"!
If you came from Brenda of "Crafting for Sanity? Or Insanity?" then you are in the right place!
For my project, I decided to use one of the stamps from Septembers' Stamp of the Month, Poster Tidings, to make a beautiful fall card. It would be perfect to give to someone you are grateful for this upcoming Thanksgiving!!! Check it out below!
I used the NEW "Make It From Your Heart Volume 2" book and the ornate paper pack Huntington to make this card!! The uniqueness of the stamp set is shown off by the sponging effect of the Olive, Barn Red, & Autumn Terracotta exclusive inks. This effect gives the card some "wow" factor while making the colours of the paper pack stand out!! A tiny bit of Bronze Shimmer Trim gives just the right amount of bling to this card!!!
Your next stop is with Mary of "Ida's Attic".
Thanks for hopping along with us and we hope you will join us again in September!!!

Reading, baking, blogging, & scrappin' - You Are My Happy!!!
My husband, my babies, my family, my friends, & my customers - you all - You Are My Happy!!!
What's your happy???
Well, this months promotion "You Are My Happy" truly makes me happy. The font is small enough for journalling titles! The sentiments have so many meanings that work for both cards & layouts. (Side Note: The Dr. Seuss one is my favourite). The cute little pictures are so versatile and cute.
One of the first thing I thought of when I got my hands on my very own set, was these will make great cards. I started googling & happened upon "Cre8n' Memories" and got my inspiration!!!
Using the inspiration, the Sarita paper packet, and the Make It From Your Heart Volume 2 - I was able to design my upcoming workshop!!! Look at the beautiful creations that can be used for all the people in your life that are your HAPPY!
If you'd like to take part of this workshop, please check out my Facebook event. If you'd like to purchase your own "You Are My Happy" trio stamp set for $10 (with a $50 purchase), check out my website.
More importantly - everyday look at the important people in your life & think
"You Are My Happy!"
"You Are My Happy!"
Products Used: You Are My Happy Stamp Set Trio, Sarita Paper Packet, Cotton Candy Cardstock, White Daisy Cardstock, Desert Sand Cardstock, Outdoor Denim Exclusive Ink, Lagoon Exclusive Ink, Goldrush Exclusive Ink, Chocolate Exclusive Ink, Cotton Candy Exclusive Ink, Gypsy Exclusive Ink, Cotton Candy Exclusive Markers, Gypsy Exclusive Markers, Outdoor Denim Exclusive Markers, Lagoon Exclusive Markers, Bakers Twine Harvest Assortment, Bakers Twine Paradise Assortment, Blue Epoxy Bubbles, Clear Assortment Sparkles, Outdoor Denim Chevron Ribbon, Burlap Ribbon, Black & Grey Assortment Sparkles, Silver Shimmer Trim, & Make It From Your Heart Volume 2
