Hi Crafty Friends!  Isn't this SOTM for September just gorgeous!! I love this set!  Here is a pretty card I created using this stamp set. I loved using these three colors together!  I embossed the leave in gold first and took a sponge and cut them in quarters and sponged with the same color of ink as the cardstock. Very soft and elegant!  Be sure you place your order of $50 or more to receive this set for only $5!  You can also purchase it retail for $17.95.  You can order yours here on my website @ www.lizjohnson.closetomyheart.com Shopping List: Blessed Beyond Measure September SOTM Z2835 New England Ivy ink pad Z2854 Pomegranate ink pad Z2823 Goldrush ink pad 1282 New England Ivy cardstock  X5780 Pomegranate cardstock  1243 Goldrush cardstock  1385 White Daisy cardstock  Z2066 Gold Embossing powder Z891 VersaMark ink pad Z3189 White and Gold ribbon Cricut Art Philosophy Collection...

Jeepers Creepers Halloween Treat Holder

Image
Hello Peeps!  I would like to share this cute little treat bag with you. It was so much fun to make and fairly easy to put together! These are wonderful for teachers, neighbors, nieces, nephews, grandkids, siblings, and more!  The box was cut from Artiste on page 80 3-D Object. The cut was 2 1/2". I scored all edges and glued pieces of random paper from the Jeepers Creepers paper on all four sides.  I cut another piece from the Jeepers Creepers paper 1/2" x 7". This is the handle of the box. You can attach this with Liquid Glass or another strong adhesive. Cut your tag pieces out using Cricut Art Philosophy and attach to the top of your handle using string, twine or ribbon. Fill with your favorite candy!  Have fun creating these cute little boxes!  Shopping List: X7211B Jeepers Creepers paper packet Z4009 Jeepers Creepers Assortment Z4006 Monsterous Halloween Thin Cuts Bundle  Z3809 Tangerine ink pad Z899 Memento Black ink pad Cricut Artiste Collection (ret...

Hello Friends! I'm back! I took a little time off to enjoy my birthday week with  family and friends. I have also been creating like crazy to get ready for my September New Catalogs Unveiling Party! This is one of the cards you will be making at my open house for free!  This month brings a new Holiday Expressions catalog, new SOTM, and National Stamping month offer! Lots of exciting things going on during September! Make sure you check out these on my website below!  I would like to share this elegant card showcasing our beautiful September SOTM called "Blessed Beyond Measure" and new thin cuts!  I love taking the same color of ink and randomly stamp on the same color of cardstock. It looks amazing!  The gold really adds some elegance to the card! I used the Hello/Thanks thin cuts on the gold glitter paper and cut small strips out and glued them across the top and bottom.  The pumpkin was colored with our water color pencils without using water. Gorgeous! T...
