Welcome to our CTMH Festive Friday Blog Hop!!! The weather is starting to chill, the leaves are changing, and there are only 10 Sundays left until Christmas!!! Crazy!!! Time to start thinking about those holiday cards. However, this hop isn't just for Christmas - you will see creations made for all sorts of holidays using all sorts of 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 focus on 2 Christmas cards, both using the Frosted Paper Packet & the Polar Bear Holiday Stamp set! I think they are adorable & can not wait to make them in my upcoming Christmas Card Workshop. Check them out below!

Once again, I used the NEW "Make It From Your Heart Volume 2" book and the Artbooking Cartridge - two of my favourite products! Another product that I just can't live without our CTMHs' Non-Stick Micro-Tip Scissors - absolutely the best for cutting out these details images. Both these cards got some sparkle and bling from the Silver Shimmer Trim, Silver Glitz Glitter Gel, and Clear Assortment Sparkles. I love bling!




our 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!!!

Laughing Lola is an absolutely amazing collection. It is filled with beautiful colours & designs, from the purples to the golds to the blues; from the plaids to the paisleys to the snakeskin. Check out the adorable cards I made for this months club!!!
This card was lifted from Pam's Clearly Crafty Corner! I think this dress, from the Cricut Artiste, is just absolutely adorable & works perfectly with the Paisley Perfect stamp set!!!
 The inspiration from this card came from Quilting With Paper. I changed it up by using the Banner Wishes stamp set found in the limited time Holiday Gift Guide. I love how this stamp set has so many different sentiments!
Finally, this card I created on my own using the Make It From your Heart Volume 1 and the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge. I just love how the banner is stringed together with the black hemp

The CTMH Designed Decor Flip Stand Album is definitely on my to-do list. I have already purchased it and now am just trying to decide what I want to use it for. There are so many ideas!!! Photo display! 10 things I love display! A recipe card display! 12 month calendar!!!
This album is designed to display pages up to 6.5"x5.75" with a slot to display a background image. The best thing about the Flip Stand Album is that it coordinates with the Cricut Artbooking Cartridge!!! Check out this video for some ideas on how to use your flip album!!!
