Today I would like to share, how SPECIAL & EXCLUSIVE Close To My Heart's Cricut cartridges are!

So come JOIN me, and allow me to share details, view artworkcreated with these amazing cartridges and learn with me
why the THREE Cricut cartridge bundles are
SO SPECIAL here at Close To My Heart J!! 
*****************************************************************************************

Did you know...that Close To My Heart now has
THREE Cricut Bundles??

Today, I will be sharing a bit more about our NEWEST Cricut cartridge bundle is called Artbooking!!


If you haven’t heard about this cartridge yet, or haven’t seen it in person, make sure to join me at one of my upcoming events to see the AMAZING things this cartridge can do!


As with EACH of our cartridges, all 3 CTMH Cricut cartridges include…
o       700 IMAGES (not sizes) on the cartridge!
o       an alphabet font
 (Artbooking font is script
J)
o       3 EXCLUSIVE (only found in Cricut bundles) 
D-size stamp sets…retailing at $53.85!
o       3-12x9 sheets of chipboard…coordinating with the shapes on the cartridge
o       a special asset that pertains to each individual cartridge



***What makes the Artbooking Cartridge unique from our other 2 cartridges???
The ARTBOOKING cartridge bundle is know for the
10 mini-albums & (15) 2 page layouts that it creates.

Take a look at the pictures below at this Christmas mini album…

 
and what AMAZES me about this album – it was created ONLY by using the the Artbooking cartridge!

There is NO inking, NO stamping throughout this booklet!!!  To create this album, I used Artbooking cuts, 
glitter paper & embellishments!!
 
Take a look at this 2 page layout.... it was cut COMPLETELY by the Artbooking cartridge and then glued to the two base pages…


and ta-da – the layout is complete!!  So QUICK, BEAUTIFUL & EASY!!!



I wasn’t sure how much I would use this cartridge at first...but I really shouldn't have been surprised, as I have used, and used, and USED this cartridge over & over again for ALL Papercrafting items that I was creating!! J... I turn to this Artbooking cartridge as much as I use my other 2 CTMH cartridges!  It really is an AMAZING little tool!! J

So, if you do not think of yourself as a scrapbooker...

don't turn away from from this cartridge yet! 
CLICK HEREto view the MANY images 
(700 to be exact) that are included on this cartridge!!!

All of the images on this cartridge can be re-sized…meaning I can create quicker, beautiful cards by using these fabulous overlays!! 


Here is a my penguin card, where I re-sized the 11x11 overlay down to 4 1/2" by using my "Real Dial Size" (RDS) key!!

The shape the penguin is stamped on, is from the Artbooking too!!
I used Wintry Wishes stamp set (hostess exclusive stamp) for the stamping.  Here is a list of the other items used to create this card.

You Are My Happy - National Stamping Month Blog Hop!


2013-9 September_CC_ImageGallery_National Stamping Month
I’m so excited to be joining a group of almost 25 Close To My Heart  consultants where we will be sharing items that we CREATED using this FABULOUS “You Are My Happy” stamp sets! 

Here is a look at this AMAZING Trio of stamp sets!
URMyHappy
These stamp sets can be yours for ONLY $10 - when you place a $50 order of Close To My Heart products with your CTMH Consultant (or click here if you need a consultant J) !

If you have come here from Vicki’s Blog, you are on the right track!

This blog hop is one BIG loop…so after you have seen my creation, feel free to click the link at the bottom of my post to go onto the next creation!  
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here is the card I created...

You Are My Happy_laughing lola_pattern 20-vol 2_card DSC_3884

I used our NEWEST how-to book, Make It From Your Heart, volume 2 - Pattern #20, to create this card.  I LOVE the fun, new patterns in this WONDERFUL new how-to book!!

I pulled out our NEW paper pack Laughing Lola to create my “Happy” card.  I started by stamping the background of my white daisy cardstock with the script image from Universal Backgrounds stamp set. J


One of my Favorite things about this stamp set…
****this TRIO stamp set is Cricut Compatible!!  ****

What does this mean?  It means that 5 of the shapes in this stamp set, can be cut out using the Art Philosophy.  and you can stamp the coordinating image directly on top of the shape!!

For example - that’s EXACTLY what I did with the flower on my card!!  I cut the flower shape (on pg. 50) on the Art Philosophy cartridge out at 1 1/2”, and stamped the flower image PERFECTLY on top of the cut out shape!

Take a look at the flower…

I used 3 of our alcohol markers (they come in 80 colors!) to color in the one flower…Gypsy, Crystal Blue and the light Olive marker.

Did you notice the filled in flower petals?  Yes, I LOVE the Stardust Glitz Glitter Gel J

I am really excited about the Lagoon Washi Tape that I added to my bottom border.  I cut out a piece of black cardstock, and added the Washi tape directly over top!  ***Stay tuned, because in mid-Oct 2013 CTMH will be releasing 6 more washi tapes patterns & colors! Wahoo!****


The frame shape with the sentiment (You are my Happy) , came from the Artiste Cricut Cartridge, key 6.  I used that wonderful glitz glitter gel to outline the frame, to carry over the sparkle and shine on this card. J

Did you notice the black scallop border?  That is what our NEW Scallop Border Punch can do!!

I’ve been using this border punch on so many things!!  It works great to scallop our rolls of shimmer trim OR edge any paper or cardstock, like I did here! J

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

Since I was having so much fun creating with the Laughing Lola paper pack, I decided to create some 3x3 cards with my leftover scraps too!

I hope this inspires you to create some projects of your own! J

I really loved the FLOWER that comes in the You Are Happy Stamp set, and wanted to see if I HAD to color it in with markers, or could I just stamp it on colored cardstock. J 
What do you think??? J
