CTMH

So i decided to be a CTMH consultant. I love the goodies that they have to offer and the stamps are to die for. I got my page up and running you can go there by clicking the logo on the right hand side of the page. I am offering a free stamp of your choice to the first 5 people who places an order.

ATC and RED WHITE AND BLUE

The ATC is for a swap for awareness. I did yellow ribbon and purple ribbon. I did yellow because I am a VET and purple because of cystic fibrosis. I recommend going to www.cff.org if you want to know more about cystic fibrosis.



I did another swap on cricut for card swaps. This month is red white and blue. I did this for that swap.

I have met two really truly wonderful ladies, I feel truly blessed to have them in my life. I have also met some wonderful women on the cricut messageboard. This year has been a blessed one. I am happy to have another year of life not just for me but for my son. I love waking up in the morning to him taping me to get up.

My latest Creations

Havent posted in a long time. Kinda missed posting. Here are two projects that I have completed in the past couple of weeks. I will add more later. TFL

This is for a A-Z and months of the year Roledex Swap. I did four spots. When I started them I was like OMFG what did I get into. But they turned out great and I cant wait to receive them back. I did from left to right on the top row:
April~ april showers bring....
the letter U (as my son say the letter me)~ umbrella
The letter K~ Kite
November~ with a turkey



I used stickles for the rain and the kite string. The kite is a diamond from george, the bowtie from the wedding cart, the umbrella from the wildcard and the turkey from doodlecharms.


These are the tags from my tag swap. I angeled five spots. I had veterans day (because i am a vet ya'll), mothers day, fathers day and boy and girl baby.




I use the rounded square shape from george. I had some ribbon left over from another project. The mothers and fathers day and the cloud is heat embossed. The roses are from walk in my garden bordered. The rattle and boat are from New Arival, the car is from Cars, the gears from Indie Art.

Playing Catchup

Okay so I havent Posted my creations in sooo long. I think I will do it in one post.
Nothing special just a whole lot of pictures.
