Scrapin' & Stampin': Autumn/Winter 2013 & National Stamping Campaign for September

This is a selection of my latest work and designs for classes I hold in my home. The National Stamping Stamp set featured here with the sun only 2 of the Stamp Sets were used here in the 3 set that is available this month. I posted earlier the September Campaign and you can get this adorable Stamp set for only $10 with a purchase of $50 or more. www.ldj.ctmh.com This card was designed using all CTMH products but the Paper Packet retired several years back but it worked perfectly in this design.

The last 2 cards featured on the right bottom utilized the Always Grateful Stamp set, Masking Technique(close up of card made in the class today), and Holiday Tags Sentiment. The bottom right featured the Avonlea Paper Packet and CTMH Sentiment Stamp Set. The Paper is no longer available. This was one of my favorites from an earlier Idea Book. Then the bottom right picture shows 3 cards they were my first class introducing the Autumn/Winter Idea Book and New Products. I focused on showing the class the chalk board look using our Colonial White Pigment Ink as well as the new paper packs, Babycakes, Huntington, & Frosted Paper Packs. The Artiste Cartridge was used for tags as well. I did use a Stampin Up Stamp Set in the middle card for the sentiment.

National Stamp Set Available only IN September

I just finished this class today utilizing the masking technique with Post it notes. We used 3 colors and the masking technique for all 3 of these cards. I also demonstrated the new PIGMENT Inks we have and they loved them. The difference in clarity is amazing. The Always Grateful Stamp set was utilized for this class along with a Sentiment stamp set for the Think of you card shown here.

Babycakes Paper Packet with Wild Wonders Stamp Set

The next card and scrapbook page utilized the Babycakes Paper packet from our CMTH Idea Book and the Wild Wonders Stamp Set. Just darling and so much fun. The scrapbook layout incorporated several embellishment elements from our Fall line along with the Canvas Stickease that coordinates withe the Babycakes Paper. I also used the Artiste Cartridge to cut the pin wheel out. This was a lot of work measuring to get a balance for the picture I choose of our 3rd Grandchild. I have yet to use the Cricut to cut this young mans name out and apply. Corner Rounder, Bronze Shimmer Trim were also used.

Babycakes Paper Packet

OK, I stepped out of the box on this one. My daughter had this punch so I just punched the famous hexagon shapes that we are seeing everywhere these days with I think Mind's Eye Paper packet to create this beautiful piece. The Artiste Cartridge was used to cut the butterfly and I used some gems I had on hand and a CTMH sentiment Stamp with a banner cut with the Artiste as well. Love this one and Love the colors.
