Guy's Superhero Birthday Card

Last week was my cousin's husband's birthday and we went to a BBQ at their house to celebrate, so I wanted to bring a birthday card for him. (Along with a pound of coffee—love that free pound a week I get as a Starbucks employee now!) 

Guy cards are always more difficult to create, but CTMH's Superhero paper is perfect for the job.

I only had about 10 minutes to make this card so it came together quickly. I used the same sketch as for THIS card. I already had the Superman image from Super Powers stamped and cut out, so I just had to color him with colored pencils. Then I cut a couple of ovals on my Cricut with the Art Philosophy Cartridge to make him stand out a bit and adhered him with 3D foam.

Quick and cute, just how I like it!

The Happy Birthday stamp is from the retired Happy Birthday stamp set, but there are now a couple of awesome birthday sentiment stamp sets to choose from: Just a Number and Card Chatter—Birthday.

If you'd like any of these products, you can shop for CTMH products on my website.

Make a Card Using Supplies from the CTMH Spring/Summer 2012 New Consultant Kit

I know there are a lot of new CTMH Consultants out there, so I created this video to help my new team members and any of you who might benefit.

In this video I'll show you how to create a card using supplies that come/came in your Spring/Summer 2012 New Consultant Kit. Bear with the length, because I wanted to show the basics from start to finish. I hope you learn a thing or two!

I added a couple ink colors, but in the video I explain that you can easily omit the tulip and sunset if you don't have them, and only use the Cocoa, Lagoon, and Olive that come in the kit.




If you are interested in becoming a Close to my Heart Consultant, I'd love to have you! You can read more information about joining my team, and you'll find lots of FAQs right here on my blog. Right now you get the Dotty for You paper packet in your kit for FREE...but only til the end of May. Let me know if you have any questions (jaymalew [at] gmail [dot] com). If you're ready, you can join here >

If you'd like to make this card, but are not interested in becoming a Consultant, here's what you need to purchase (assuming you already have acrylic blocks and the necessary tools):

Vintage Book-Page Wedding Bouquet: More Book Options!

Hello! Just popping in to let you know that I now have more vintage book-page options for the wedding bouquets I offer in my Etsy shop.

Remember these beauties? Well, they made their Wedding Show debut at Etsy's Wedding Event in NY last month, and will be featured in Real Simple's wedding bouquet online special article next month. (I'll be sure to share a link once it's up.)

So due to their popularity, I've been vintage book shopping!

I now have Sheet Music, Shakespeare, and Vintage Wine (that's the title of the book) vintage pages to use in bouquets (in addition to Bible pages, as shown in the bouquets above).

(Click photo to see larger.)

But I only have a limited supply of each...they are one-of-a-kind vintage books, after all. So if you're interested in a bouquet made from any of these book pages, head on over to my Etsy shop. If you have questions feel free to convo me about anything!

Thanks!
