Halloween Wreath

I made this Halloween Wreath while Todd was in the priesthood session of conference.

Sunday, September 4, 2011

we will be making a "Fry box" that I cut using my new CTMH Art Philosphy Cricut cartridge. It will hold small candy bars. The small Thanks was made using the Pair a phrase stamp set that is this month's special.

September club is hosted by Janna. Unfortunately, Janna is moving to St. George so this might be our last chance to see her.

September 2011 Specials

Happy September! As always, a new month comes with new stamps and specials and this post will explain them to you so you can plan your CTMH purchases around them this month.

You can click on any photo in this post to see it larger and in more detail.

1. Did you know that September is National Stamping Month?

Of course Close To My Heart wanted to celebrate with something special, so they created their very first DOUBLE stamp set that you can earn for FREE this month. The stamp set is two "D" size stamp sets (a "double D" if you will) put together in one envelope, called "Pair-a-Phrase". It's full of fun designs and sentiments for almost any occasion. During the month of September, if you spend $75 (before shipping and tax), this stamp set is yours for FREE! FREE I tell you. That's MUCH less than you would pay a plastic surgeon for a DOUBLE D, and so much less painful. Oh, heavens! I crack myself up!

The cards you see are cards made using the "Pair-a-Phrase" set (supply list at the end of this post). I've also included a close up of one of the cards and a photo of the entire set for your viewing pleasure.

2. September Stamp of the Month:

I think this set is full of creative possibilities and full functionality for every day needs. It's great for cards, invitations, tags, and MORE! It's called "Limited Edition", which I find a bit funny because to me, the possibilities with this set are UNLIMITED.

You can purchase this set during the month of September only in one of two ways:

Spend $50 (before shipping and tax) and get it for only $5
Purchase it for $17.95

This card was made using "Limited Edition" and the new Sonoma papers. The supply list is at the end of this post.

Ordering Helps:

To order either or both of these stamp sets, give me a call (435) 833-0800
If your order totals $50 (before shipping and tax), you will qualify for the Stamp of the Month at $5. If your order totals $75, you qualify for the Pair-a-Phrase" stamp set FREE and the "Limited Edition" stamp set for $5.

Cricut and Close To My Heart

Close to My Heart has taken it to a whole new level! We are the first to come out with a Cricut Cartridge that pairs with clear acrylic stamps and dimensional chipboard. Simply plug the cartridge into your Cricut®* Personal Electronic Cutter machine and you’re ready to cut any of the 700 shapes, ranging from elegant rosettes and lace to trendy gift boxes and banners! You’ll also receive three stamp sets as well as three sets of 9" × 12" Dimensional Elements that work in tandem with the cartridge. On top of that, numerous My Acrylix stamp sets in our new Idea Book pair wonderfully with images on the Cricut® cartridge. They made it SOOO easy…if you look closely at the sets you’ll see that they’ve put lines around the images that coordinate and marked the size setting right on the acetate sheet.
