Wild about Love Card

I have loved playing with the February SOTM:  Wild about Love. Foxes are all the rage, and I was able to jazz it up a bit with a top hat and sparkly bow tie. Now, I have a foxy card for my foxy man. Keep creating!

Chase the Clouds Away with Cloud Nine Cardmaking Kit

There are so many things you can do with the Cloud Nine Cardmaking Kit. Here I used the cloud stamp, masked the "just because" and used it with Close to my Heart's FREE printable campaign: Rediscover CTMH.

Babycakes Thanks

A simple, cute thank you card for my daughter's birthday. She had a jungle theme and I love how the babycakes worked perfectly. I am also in live with the CTMH framework alphabet. It works for any size area, just overlap or stretch out. Thanks also to our Artbooking cartridge, which made creating 30 of these cards less daunting.

Changing up the Frosted Card Workshop

 I love the Workshops on the Go Frosted Cardmaking Kit; from the stamp set to the addition of the tinsel baker's twine.  It's a beautiful kit and a steal at $24.95 for 15 cards/envelopes and a D-size stamp set. 

 How could it get any better?

By changing up the cardstock and ink colors! 

By using Slate Grey and Blush in place of Olive and Ruby I was able to create these feminine and pretty versions.

Then, I followed the example of fellow consultant, Vicki Wizniuk, and changed it up again with Lagoon, Slate Grey, and Whisper.  Love how they create a feeling of winter snow.

In all, I made 65 cards using the Frosted Cardmaking Kit, Colonial White Value Pack (50 cards and envelopes), Baker's twine, clear sparkles and a few extra sheets of cardstock all for around $60! (not including ink pads)

If you would like to purchase items to create 65 of these cards for around $60, shop on my website or contact me (kelly.m.maatman@gmail.com or 616-406-8312).
