Here we go!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Pocket Card", "Picture My Life", and "PML cards" all are the SAME exact thing! 😍

...and Today's hop is all about these FABULOUS 4x6 and 3x4 card designs!

Close To My Heart has created more PML Cards to coordinate with TWO Paper collections from our CORE Idea Book.. our "Party Time" and "Lovely" collections.

Each pack of Picture My Life (PML) cards, includes 24 cards --12 each of the 4x6 size and 12 each of the 3x4 size.

While these cards are typically used in the Scrapbooking world, you'll find MANY uses for them...including cardmaking and they make GREAT Gift tags too!

Make sure to ask your CTMH Maker about the DISCOUNTED BUNDLE -of these 2 designs of PML cards. They are ONLY available until March 31st!

For today's hop---I created a COLLECTION of cards using the Party Time PML pack! And GUESS WHAT?? I used all 24 cards in this set to create this set of 13 BIRTHDAY cards!!

Let's take a look! 😊

I wasn't "planning" to do a workshop when I created these😉...so that meant I didn't have to "think" about the products I was using ...while creating.

Instead, I could pull and use whatever I needed from my stash. It's SO FUN to do this every once and a while & just have FUN creating with no restrictions! 💗

(I'll share a list of all the items I used at the end of this post.)

However, I DID gift this card class to a few special crafters of mine...and we had a LOT of fun putting these cards together.

Let's take a look at a few closeups of a few of the cards.

There were a few main items did use on all the card designs....the "In This Together" enamel dots...they were the PERFECT colors!!

Whether they were an addition to the stamped wording...

Or added to complete the "bracket" design...

They really were the PERFECT addition to this CARD collection!

I also used some Liquid Pearls --- look at this shiny dots on the banner!

and I used Stickles Glitter Gel -- the Icicle color!! It's AMAZING how much sparkle & shine those Stickles added to the card designs!

I used a FEW Birthday Stamp sets I had on hand...and was pleasantly surprised that most of them ARE still Current and AVAILABLE!!

If you need some GREAT Birthday stamp sets---I highly recommend these stamps!
