June Stamp of the Month - A Flowering Bunch

This is another great Stamp of the Month from CTMH.  This card was designed by my friend, Sharryl Hales.  It's a 4x5 postcard. The tag slides into a My Creations Paper Pouch (Z1827).



Have a memorable day,

Father's Day Card with Cricut Artiste



My husband kept asking me for a card for his dad for Father's Day so he could mail it in time.  I thought I could find something in my stash that was already created, but everything was too girly. I'll have to spend a day creating some masculine cards.  But there was no time for that now.  I needed to produce a card quickly so it could get in the mail.  I whipped up this Father's Day card in less than 30 minutes which is fast for me.  I have a hard time committing when it come to paper patterns and placement.  

I dug through some scraps (love that) and looked at MojoMonday sketches to get my juices flowing.  The sentiment is from the Artiste Cricut cartridge, a CTMH exclusive.


Have a memorable day,
Sheila

June Scrapbook Layouts featuring Surf's Up

We created these fun, summery pages at this month's playgroup using Surf's Up workshop on the go (G1059) from Close To My Heart.  I can hardly wait to fill them with pictures. A big shout out to Nicole Norris for sharing her designs.
