A CTMH Happy Easter

I don’t know about you, but once Easter is here, so is Spring.  My heater just kicked on BUT tomorrow is Easter so it really is Spring.  Keep repeating it to yourself if you live in one of these areas where it is still chilly.
I haven’t had a chance to post must recently but I wanted to share a project we made in our April Workshops.  I have to admit that I got the idea from the recent Joyful Stars Blog Hop.  Krista is so talented and creates such wonderful projects.  Anyway, I modified her idea and made it work as a “bonus” project for my workshops.

The gals all loved making this little Easter Hanger.  Well, time for me to run off to work.  For Now, Happy Crafting!

Joyful Stars Blog Hop

It’s time again for our Joyful Stars Blog Hop.  This is a fun hop that includes many talented Close To My Heart Consultants.  This month our theme is “Easter.”
If you’ve arrived here from Andrea's Blog, you are on the right track.  Now without further ado, here is my project for the month.
Blog Hop April
Blog Hop April upclose
That sweet Momma Bunny is from one of my all time favorite CTMH Stamps called Sensational Season.  It is a retired Stamp of the Month from a couple years ago.  I love using it every year.  Many of the other goodies on my project are new.  The pattern paper is from the Skylark paper packet.  I added the teal shimmer tape and embossed and sanded the Lagoon base mat using the new CTMH Quarterfoil embossing folder.  By the way, the image is colored with my CTMH alcohol markers.
It is time to hop on over to Stephanie’s Blog.  If you get lost along the way, head back to Joyce’s Blog for a full list of participants.  For Now, Happy Crafting!

CTMH Lollydoodle Handmade Card

I’m still busy working on my April Workshops.  I’m using the Close To My Heart paper packet called Lollydoodle and it is just perfect for spring.  What do you think?
Last Card
This is a fun card that features an image from the Lollydoodle Workshop on the Go and one of the new CTMH Embossing Folders.  I really like the new embossing folders.  Yes, we all have a ton of them already, but the CTMH ones are 5 x 7 inches and have a slit that allows you to slid paper through them in order to emboss a 12 inch sheet.  How great is that?!?  
Time to head back to class prep…I just wanted to share my latest creation.  Stop on by my website to check out the embossing folders.  Oh by the way, don’t forget the great CTMH deal running this month.  If you sign up as a Memory Saver’s Team Member (i.e., become a CTMH Consultant for $99, you will also receive a free Cricut Cartridge of your choice.  You can visit my website for those details, too.  For Now, Happy Crafting!

CTMH Lollydoodle Workshop On The Go

I think I mentioned before, but I am really liking the CTMH Workshops on the Go.  In the current Idea Book, there are several and two created especially for cardmaking.  Lollydoodle is one of them and I have to use it for class because it is such a great deal.
WG1
By now, you know me…I have to change things up just a tad but this card is very similar to one of the cards that comes in the kit.  Each WTOG contains several sheets of pattern paper and card stock, embellishments, a D sized stamp set and an instruction guide.  For $24.95 they are a terrific deal.
This is one of the cards that we will be making at my April Workshops.  Nice and spring like…what do you think?  Check out my website to see the full like of CTMH workshops on the Go.  For Now, Happy Crafting!
