Connected Hearts

Creative Corner: 

Cloud 9 card for my January classes.  I used the card design from the 2013 Dream Pop Constant Campaign.  I needed to be able to cut enough B&T for 20 cards from the 1 piece of B&T.  I'm giving my customers the option of which stamp to use by cutting extra Cricut cuts.

My January Stamp of the Month - Cross-Stitch Wishes card featuring Babycakes.  I cut the "You are the BEST" stamp apart to make it easy to stamp on the Cricut cut hearts. The card design is from Make It From Your Heart 2 - Pattern 22 page 43

Valentine's Day treat/gift holder
technique feature - sponging the For Always B&T  - the back is covered with a piece of the Sparkle and Shine Bulk Stripe.  Cardstock cut at 6 1/4 x 4 3/8, scored at 1 1/4.  I used a 4 1/4 square cello envelope from www.Clearbags.com . You can also use a 4x4 Flip Flap.  I have alternate words shown on the right.

Laughing Lola card/giftcard: recipe below - card insert is 4x4 - Holder is 4 1/2 x 8 1/2

I cut the Happy Birthday stamp apart and mounted it on 2 different blocks to make it easier to use in my workshop.
