Every now and then I am challenged to do a scrapbook layout that looks best with snowy, wintry pictures - something we don't see too much of in Phoenix.  Of course if we went on regular ski trips or visited places where it actually snows, then I would have those types of pictures.  (Ask me sometime what was one of the #1 reasons I moved away from Virginia!)

I was successful in digging out some of my experiences with snow and used them on these great layouts (I do love the wonderland papers, just wish I had great photos to go with them).

Here are 2 of the 4 pages we will be doing anytime during the Create and Play on November 26th - you just need to RSVP so that I can have a kit waiting for you!

Bigger, Better Card Box

I have had an addiction, other than chocolate, for the past 3 months - the Close To My Heart Card Boxes.  My customers and I have ordered more than 50 during that time, so I feel partially responsible for the fact that they have been back-ordered for quite awhile now.

Here is a great option for a card box, especially if you have more than 6 cards and envelopes - the recipe card box.  This is the one I am offering during the 15 cards for $25 on Saturday, November 19th at 10 am.  You can do the cards with or without the card box, but why wouldn't you want to have a great box for the cards?

Holiday Gift and Treat Boxes

One of the things I like to make are cute little gift packaging for all the holiday gift giving - Valentine's Day, Halloween, Christmas, Graduation, Birthday Parties, etc.  Thanks to the many talented CTMH consultants, I have been able to copy some great projects.  And now I want to share them with you.

A fun way to give gifts to friends, co-workers, and family

Join me on Sunday, December 4 th at 12 noon for 2 hours to make these fun ideas perfect for gift giving.  Cost is $25.  If you have the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge or are thinking about buying it, this is a great workshop to see the variety of gift bags and boxes you can make.  Make sure to RSVP by emailing me by Friday, December 2nd.

Christmas Cards

I love so many of the new holiday stamp sets from Close To My Heart this year.  And now that I can cut the shape on my Cricut before I stamp the image, I spend a lot less time cutting images out with my scissors.

I am offering this 15 cards for $25 workshop on Saturday, November 19th at 10 am.  If you would like to attend, please send me an email to save your space.  It's not too late to make your Holiday cards for all your friends and family.

Come Make Halloween Cards with Me!

These are some of the Halloween cards I made from CTMH's Mischief papers.  I also used a variety of stamp sets including Backdrop-Charmed, All Hallows Eve, Wicked, So Grateful, and the Mischief Stamp of the Month.  One of the cards is not specifically Halloween but a fall card (Autumn Days).
 

I have to give credit to three of my CTMH sisters - Chantelle Husband, Caron Barnard (whose card I copied 99%), and Aaron Brown whose previous cards guided me to these cards.  Aaron has a fabulous blog - http://aaronsbooth32.blogspot.com/ as does Caron - http://www.caronbarnard.blogspot.com/

Join me in this Friday night's card class where we will make these 5 cards.  Email me if you are interested - space is limited.  There will be another opportunity to make these cards at the open crop on Saturday, September 24th during the free open crop.
