Still playing with the CTMH Jackson Papers

Hi folks,

I guess it is safe to say that my posting schedule has been rather hit or miss lately. I've had these four Jackson cards sitting here waiting to be posted but just have not gotten around to writing the post.


These first two are for the stash.

And these last two are a couple more Father's Day cards.

This one for my Dad.

I actually modified the last card slightly after photographing it for this post. I added three little paper roses above the twine knot - as this card was ultimately given to my sister on Father's Day. It's a little something I do for her each year.

card details:

• finished size: 4.25 x 5.5 inches or 6 x 6 inches, white card bases
• patterned paper: CTMH Jackson
• stamps: CTMH "Finding the Words" (D1646), "The Best Dad Ever" (A1173), "Holiday Tags" (D1560)
• embellishments: CTMH Oceanside Sequins, Glacier Extra Thick Twine

Challenges for these cards:

• Sister Act Card Challenge #111: Anything Goes
• Crafts 4 Eternity Recipe Challenge #231: Dads

Worth Celebrating - Yuletide Carol

Hi folks,

Well it seems I'm getting forgetful - or maybe a little busy - as I've had this card sitting in a post since early May and just never got around to publishing.

This is another non-Christmas card that I made with the Yuletide Carol papers from Close To My Heart.

These papers retire at the end of August so if you have them on your wish list, be sure to snap them up soon!

card details:

• finished size: 4.25 x 5.5 inches, black card stock base
• patterned paper: CTMH Yuletide Carol
• stamp: CTMH "Blossom" card making WOTG, die cut from the CTMH Cricut Artfully Sent Cartridge
• embellishments: CTMH Black Shimmer trim, black paper roses from my stash

As always, thanks for stopping by!
