Blessed!

Blessed Thanksgiving!

O, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good!

We thank God for all of our blessings -- too many to list!

 

The "BLESSED" banner dressed up the fireplace

for this Autumn season.

I used Huntington Papers along with the Glitter Paper

from CTMH,

and Sparkles, AND the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge 

for the letters and the leaf and acorn shapes.

Here's a peek at the paper turkeys (Hershey Nugget for the body)

that will flock to our Thanksgiving table

at each person's place setting.

I used a variety of retired fall-colored papers to make them.

The feathers are cut by using a Marvy punch,

and trimming the middle to 3/4

and the front to 1/2 the circle.

 

 Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

 

A Mix of Old and New

The more I use CTMH's new Glitter papers, the more I LOVE them

and the way they make a project POP!

Here's a strip on the front and on the inside of a birthday card

combined with some retired Roxie papers

to give this some glitz and glam

for a special lady.

I like how the Glitz Glitter Gel in Almond

perfectly coordinates with the glitter paper too!

Now go and put some glitz into your scrapping soon!

A Mix of Huntington, Glitter, Kraft, and Sparkles

Here's my first creation using CTMH's new Huntington papers.

The colors and patterns are so rich and yummy 

and I combined the patterned piece

with a Kraft card and some strips of the new Glitter paper too.

"CHOCOLATE tastes as good as skinny feels"

is just one of the stamp variations

in the August SOTM (stamp of the month) set.
With a $50 order, you'll receive this stamp set FREE! 

A few brown and beige Sparkles and a little bow later

(I cut the CTMH brown/white stripe ribbon in half)

and VOILA! 

A little card that has made me crave a bit of chocolate...

now if I could just find some!

(Did you know that my DH and I hide chocolate from each other? The last time I found a big bag of peanut M&M's I had to get a ladder to reach between the joists in the basement. No joke!)

A little peek at more Huntington papers from the Workshop on the Go...

Valentines in Pinks and Glitter

While the wind is whipping outside, the temperature is down into the teens, and the fireplace is blazing, I'm enjoying some card making time and using some of my non-CTMH scrap papers -- along with the CTMH MyAcrylix stamps (they are the BEST!) and the new silver glitter paper!

More Valentine Treat Tubes

I've been tweaking the Valentine Treat Tubes and their holders -- and eating the Hershey kisses too!

I used the CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge to cut the circular background and die cut frames.
