365 Cherish the Day with CTMH November Stamp of the Month "Cherish the Day"

Welcome to the CTMH November Stamp of the Month blog hop featuring the set Cherish the Day! If you have come here from Angela's Blog, you are on the right path! We have over 50 Close To My Heart Consultants sharing their creations using this month's SOTM and other great CTMH products on their blogs. To hop through the whole list simply click on the link at the end of each post in the hop. 

This layout is different from my usual style but I love the clean graphic feel created by evenly spacing the stamped tags across the page.  I wanted to create a layout that celebrates not just one day but all 365 days of the year that I cherish my family.

Here is a close up of the Cricut cut and layered numbers - I've layered a decorative Buttercup cut directly over an Indian Corn Blue cut of the same size and then lay them both off-set on a slightly larger black cut.

And here is a close up of the tags (cut with Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge) and stamped in Indian Corn Blue.  Each tag is numbered with the month in Buttercup - not high contrast but it helps tie in the buttercup buttons, ribbon and top number layer. 

If you'd like to make this project, get these supplies:Paper: Black CS, White Daisy CS, Buttercup CS, Indian Corn Blue CS
Stamps:  Cherish the Day - November SOTM
Ink:  Indian Corn Blue, Buttercup, Archival Black Ink

Christmas Wishes Card with CTMH Believe and Tannenbaum

All these shapes were cut with the Art Philosophy cartridge - love it!  A very easy card to mass produce for Christmas as the only stamping required is the sentiment on the tag (from the Tannenbaum set).  I did use a bit of liquid glass on the black ribbon slide to give it a more substantial look.

Stamps:  Tannenbaum

I've been framed Ornament Card with Believe and Art Philosophy

This bling-a-licious card was one of my daughter's favorites.  I'm loving all our new colors of Glitz Glitter Gel!
Pretty simple card, all the shapes were cut with the Art Philosophy Cartridge.  The only non-obvious thing about this one is the paper-saving cheat on the blue polka dot paper.  Instead of using a full 6x6 sheet for the base, I simply cut (4) 6" strips about 1/2" wide.  I adhered the two side pieces down and then used my paper trimmer to cut a 45 degree miter cut on the ends of the top and bottom piece making a false frame.    Easy-peasy and a good trick if you have a limited amount of one paper!

If you'd like to make this card, get these supplies:
Paper:  Believe, White Daisy CS (ornament overlay and card base)

Boo! Halloween Card with CTMH Mischief, Captured Moments

This card was inspired by one in the new Idea Book.  I used our AP cartridge to cut the card base and letters out (so easy!) and then a bit of Silver Glitz gel on the letters for a bit of sparkle.
