Are you ready for Christmas?

The holidays may seem far away right now, but they'll be here before you know it. Make sure you have everything you need for those special homemade cards, tags, gifts, and wrapping paper. Right now Close to My Heart has two great ways to get two really nice holiday stamp sets. Holiday Magic is the October stamp of the month, so when you spend $50, you can purchase this set for only $5 (retail $17.95). This special only lasts until the end of the month.

Also, the November special is starting early so you can combine it with the October stamp of the month and get two holiday stamp sets! If you spend $25 in stamp sets before the end of November, you can get the exclusive Holiday Wishes stamp set for only $5!

What a deal!

My new favorite stamp set!

I have loved the Hooray Bouquet stamp set ever since I got the Autumn/Winter 2011 Idea Book from Close to My Heart. It's so cute, and it's so easy to cut out the flowers with CTMH's coordinating Cricut cartridge. I know the last thing I needed was another flower stamp set, but it's easily my favorite stamp set in the catalog.

It didn't take me long at all to make this card. I just cut out some flowers on the Cricut, stamped them in Smoothie and Honey, and then I stamped some other flowers directly onto the card (in Sky and Honey). I added my my greeting in Olive, sponged around the edge, and I was done!

Check out my Artwork page for more details on the supplies and tools that I used.
