September Stamp Of The Month Blog Hop- Family Is Forever!



Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!  We will be featuring September's SOTM, which is "Family Is Forever", a set of 7 stamps.  If you have come here from Lauren's Blog- CTMH Craftings, you are on the right path! The blog hop is a great big circle, so you can start here and work your way all around.  If you get lost along the way, you’ll find the complete list of participating consultants on Melinda’s Blog.



This month we have approximately 80 Close To My Heart Consultants sharing their creations using this month's SOTM and other great CTMH products on their blogs. This is simple to do - just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one! Here we go!



I used this stamp set to create a 2 page scrapbook layout! I plan to use it for Family Photos we hope to get together and take soon with my Husband's side of the family.



The stamp "Family Is Forever" makes a great page title! I featured mine on a pennant shape.



"Sweet Moments" was a nice little detail to add to this sketch pattern, which I found in the Make It From Your Heart Volume 2, pattern #4 on page 12. I also used the heart stamp to create additional details that bring it all together and emphasize the LOVE of Family.

Now "Hop" on over to Kristine's Blog- @ Home with Studio K to see her work! Be sure to visit all the Consultants at their Blogs to get some great crafting ideas and other fun ideas!

New Product Blog Hop- Annual Inspirations from Close To My Heart!


Welcome to our New Product Blog Hop, featuring items created with supplies from the NEW Annual Inspirations Catalog!

If you have come here from Kelly Jones Blog, you are on the right path! The blog hop is a great big circle, so you can start here and work your way all around. (If you get lost along the way, you’ll find the complete list of participating consultants on Melinda’s Blog.) Just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one! Here we go!

Page 88 of the New book got my attention right away!


This layout uses the NEW paper pack called "Confetti Wishes"! Here is my take on the layout using the Confetti Wishes Complements Sticker Sheet to build the cake and other accents.




I noticed that the pennant shapes were tappered at the end and not just straight across. Plus the idea of layering them at a different angle was nice. I also added a NEW White Enamel Star!



Products I used:
- NEW Confetti Wishes Paper Pack
- NEW Confetti Wishes Complements Sticker Sheets
- NEW White Enamel Stars
- NEW Glitter Paper Purple
- Journaling Pen

Now "Hop" on over to Wendy Coffman's Blog  to see her work! Be sure to visit all the Consultants at their Blogs to get some great crafting and other fun ideas!
