I'm having a Friday morning Card Class in 2 weeks...who would like to join me?!?! 

I love that Close To My Heart, brought back the Cardmaking WYW kits a couple catalogs ago and wanted to incorporate them into monthly classes if we could! 

My FAVORITE card kit, in the NEW Seasonal Expression 2 mini-book is the one we'll be doing on Friday, May 19th at 9:30am at my home. 

It is called "Workshops Your Way Anniversary Cardmaking Kit".....well - I would call it something different ...but that's ok! 

This card kit creates 12 cards (with envelopes) AND we will be making THANK YOU cards as well as Anniversary cards!! The NEAT thing is....you can decide if you'd like to make them all "Thank yous" or maybe all "Anniversaries"...it's totally UP to you!!

I have limited seats available, but would LOVE to have you come join me for this creating time together! 

Please RSVP by Thursday, May 11th...and I'll make sure I have a kit in hand for you! 

>>>>>The cost of the class is ONLY $28<<<<<

...this includes all costs for those attending my in home class. 

INCLUDED in the price for the Workshop attendees is...

.....an EXCLUSIVE stamp set  that you'll use this again and again!! 

....Papers & embellishments - AND you will have LOTS of leftovers of paper & embellishments to use on future projects

....when attending, you'll also get some MORE ideas and see the "changes" I made to this cards set too! It's always FUN to see what different ideas I can come up with, just by rotating the card or using the papers in another way - FUN!!! :)

Something to think about...you may want to purchase some more card bases & envelopes as there WILL be a lot of leftover items!!  

I LOVE the quality of our White Daisy card & envelope Value pack and highly recommend our 50 pack  of pre-scored cards & envelopes!!!

  They are just $14.95 (plus ship & tax) and are so BEAUTIFUL to stamp on and work with!

If you have arrived from Tracey's blog you are right on track.

Today I wanted to share a FUN creation I created with Close To My Heart's Flower Market Cricut Cartridge.  

I held my annual Winter Scrapbooking Retreat last weekend & I try and do something "special" for my ladies, each year.  This year, I decided to make this FUN succulent flower pot for each guest as their Name Tag. :)  Take a look!  

What FUN it was to create these, and how easy too...although creating 45 of them did take me a little bit of time ;) 

Here is the DESIGN SPACE file for those of you that would like to create some of these easy-to-keep-alive succulents of your own. https://us.cricut.com/design/#/canvas/57068399

I created the flowers first, cutting them out in Juniper Cardstock, and then inking all the edges with Pansy Purple ink. 

There were 5 different shapes that needed to be glued together to create the succulent.  LIQUID GLASS was my hero, and worked beautifully to hold these together! 

I purchased the flower pots at the dollar tree - they had a variety of sizes - and the stick to hold my "hello" Cricut shape was just a bamboo skewer. 

The gold gems are a retired item from Close To My Heart, and I used our black journaling pen to personalize each one. 

Once all the flowers were created...I took everything out to our garage to assemble everything together. The Spanish Moss was a great touch, but if you've worked with this before, you KNOW how messy it can be! :)

Here's a look at my "workspace" (freezer top ;) ) out in our garage.  It worked REALLY well....and yes, the metal ruler WAS my knife to cut my foam blocks - LOL! 

I used the hot glue to glue the foam to bottom of pot, to glue the Spanish moss onto the top of the foam...and then finished it off by gluing the succulent on top of the Spanish Moss! :)  It worked better than I even thought it would! :) :)  

I ADORE the Flower Market Cricut cartridge & haven't used it NEAR enough, since it's August 1st release! :) While this cartridge can be used for 3D items...there are TONS of shapes, titles, etc that can be used for non-flower items too!!  

Make sure to check out the HANDBOOK of all 700 images on this amazing cartridge (CLICK HERE) ....and contact your Consultant today on how you can receive your own copy of this MAGNIFICENT cartridge, that can be found ONLY at Close To My Heart! :) 

If you haven't seen the goodies from Close To My Heart in the Seasonal Expression 1 mini-book...make sure to touch base with your CTMH consultant, or feel free to CLICK HERE.  

This "mini-book" is ONLY current until April 30, 2017!! SO...if you have anything on your wish list from this book - you'll want to make sure to get those goodies before they are gone forever! :) 

  

That's all for today....thanks for stopping by, and I hope you were inspired to ready to go CREATE something on your own!
