This card is made using the CTMH set called Roar! This is one of the larger sets that CTMH carries and has a ton of stuff!! The card base is on CTMH Topiary paper. I used 3 different inks on this card: Brown Bag for the sentiment, Olive for the Stegosaurus and Pear for the T-Rex.


Here is a picture of the complete set.  You get 4 dinosaurs, 4 sentiments and a line of bones. This set retails at $17.95, what an awesome price!!



This card is from the CTMH set called A Bowwow. My favorite thing about CTMH is that they have many sets in the book that retail at $6.95 and can be used in a variety of ways! The card base is CTMH Pacifica paper. The dog is stamped on Colonial White using Cocoa ink color. I used Smoothie ink for the tongue and Lagoon for the collar.


Here is a photo of the complete set. For $6.95 this is a steal!!!


For me the most challenging cards are always those for Guys! I almost passed up this stamp set until a Friend ordered it and I gave it a second look. It is perfect for Guy cards! I think it would also work for Sympathy cards or even a Graduation card with the sentiment the set has. I stamped it on the Colonial White paper. I am really liking how stamped images look on this color vrs. a solid white color. I used various ink colors and the base of the card is CTMH Pacifica Blue paper.


The set is called Perfect Day. It retails for only $13.95 and is shown in the picture below. It has 4 images, all of the little birds are individual stamps. The set also has 3 sentiments. The one about never giving up would be great for Graduation or a Friend having a tough time. Click on the image for a better view.

Two Easter cards with Close To My Heart stamps. I used the Cocoa ink color for the bunnies. The paper is from the Dotty For You collection. This stamp set is called My Peeps and is so cute!! It retails at $9.95 which is a great price for such a neat set!!!


The bunnies on the white squares are up on pop dots. I used Sunflower ink to color the edges of the squares.


Here is a picture of the complete set.

Two more cards made with Close To My Heart supplies. The stamp set is called A Blossom and is a steal at $6.95!!! You get the two flowers, a circle stamp for the middle of the flowers and 2 sentiments!! The sentiments are "thinking of you",  which I used and " Our thoughts and prayers are with you". The blue polka dot paper is from the Dotty For You collection. I used Sunflower and Lagoon ink colors for the flowers and Pear on the edges of the paper and sentiment. I put a brad through the middle of the top flower and used pop dots to make it stick up from the bottom flower. LOVE this set!!!
