Card Class-- 6/18/16

Hello,

I'm co-hosting a 12-hour crop this Saturday.  Below are some cute cards that I'll be teaching a class on.  If you live in there area or would like to order a pre-stamped kit, please go to Kit tab on top of blog.  We'll be making 5 cards for only $15. 

I just love the Tickled Pink stamp set with the Flamingos.  My friends laugh when I call flamingos "Pelicans", but hey I know what I mean!. This stamp set comes with coordinating dies for only $13.95. 

The pineapple stamp set called "One in a Melon" does not come with dies, but can be cut using the Artistry Cricut cartridge. 

Both CTMH's Cricut cartridges and dies make stamping and scrapbooking so much fun and easy!















Thanks for stopping by.
Maureen

CTMH June SOTM Blog Hop

Welcome to the CTMH June SOTM Blog Hop.  If you came here from Tracey's Blog, then you are on the right track.  The hop is one big circle.  If you get lost along the way, please click here.

The June SOTM is called "The Long Way Home".  It contains 15 stamps and is super cute!  One of the shapes is just like a Volks-Wagon van, which my daughters and I simply adore.  In fact, my daughters love VW vans so much that I don't even have to say "smile"! 

To me these vans symbolize peace, freedom and fun.  With my daughter going to the University of Vermont this Fall, we'll be visiting the Ben & Jerry's flagship store complete with a huge VW bus!  I will surely use this stamp set!

Anyway onto the art...

Here is a LO of my daughters (voluntarily) posing at a painted VW mural in Miami.  Check out their smiles-- so worth it!

To give the LO more dimension, I stamped a background image on the left-hand corner in Desert Sand.  Next, I stamped one the stamp set's sentiments on top and then put some festive, colored sequins.



















To capture the entire event, I created a second page. I told you I liked VW's-- so there's a pic of me:)

Next up is Nancy.  Please be sure to visit Nancy's Blog to see her wonderful work, along with all the CTMH consultants blogs!

Thank you, Maureen
