Artiste Blog Hop
Welcome to our September ARTISTE Blog Hop! Each month we are showcasing the amazing, exclusive ARTISTE Cricut cartridge which can be only purchased through a Close to My Heart Independent Consultant.
We don't want to scare you but Halloween is a little over a month away and we know you have to be thinking about what YOU are going to create for this spooky holiday! We decided to show you all the creative projects you can make using our exclusive Artiste Cricut cartridge. You will be hopping along our haunted trail of creativity - you never know what you will see next!
If you just happened to come to this blog, you should start at the beginning at Lucy's blog - http://
Also, to help you get ready to start making your own Halloween projects Lucy has some blog candy for you! She is giving away a Moonlight Complements Dimensional Elements pack! That's two (2) sheets of Printed Dimensional Elements that you can use to create your own Halloween project! There is a picture of the blog candy on her blog. All you have to do to be eligible to win is to leave a comment on everyone's blog AND become a follower of Lucy's blog. (If you are already a follower, just let her know in your comment.)
My project is ... A cupcake box (page 39) made with Spellbound Workshop on the Go kit paper (G1040)
I used our new Black Tulle Ribbon (Z1798), Haunted Assortment (Z1741) and Black & Gray Assortment Sparkles (Z1754)... for the bow on the front.
For the web on top, I used page 76 on the Artiste Cartridge (Z1790)
The stamp set used is the Moonlight Workshop on the Go kit stamp (G1051)

A little different
I love Close to my Heart's new Scroll Album (G1042)...
but the colors were not right for the room I wanted to put it in.
So I decided to use the stickers, buttons and stamp set that came with it to make this double page layout and 4 fun cards.
Think outside the box when you only need part of a kit.

Sept. Stamp of the Month Blog Hop
Welcome to our September Stamp of the Month Blog Hop! This month Close to My Heart is offering a stamp set called "Fall Favorites". This set can be purchased exclusively through a Close to My Heart Independent Consultant for only $5 with a qualifying purchase of $50.
In this hop, you will see projects featuring this fun stamp set from many talented crafty ladies! We hope you enjoy our blog hop today!
If you have just hopped onto my blog, please start at the beginning at Lucy's blog: http://love2createitall.com. If you came from Maria Woodworth of http://mariawoodworth.blogspot.com then you are in the right place!
Layout inspired by page 50 in the Autumn/Winter Idea book. I love the perfect colors in the Flirty Paper Pack (X7160B
I used our new alcohol-based Olive (Z2425) and Autumn Terracotta (Z2427) markers to color in the Scare Crow
With our new Burlap Ribbon (Z1760), Just Blooms Floret paper Shapes (Z1764) and Opaques Mocha Gems (Z1333) it was easy to add a girly touch.
I just love that Close to my Heart's Acrylix stamps are bendable! This helped me curve the "pumpkin patch" words for my circle.
