As a thank you to each of my Hostess’ I am holding a SURPRISE Book Party for each of them.

Here are some more projects I have made using this Stamp of the Month...





Extreme Happiness stamp set along with one of the sentiments from the Tender Tags was used for this Thinking of You card. Paper pack is our Moon Doggie pack.


Chocolate & Sweat Leaf Inks used for this simple card.

This bag is inspired by a gorgeous bag done by one of our CTMH Consultants, Lisa Moore. (Her's was so much more cute!) I had to play around with it and decided to add one of the Tender Tags to match. Paper Pack is Bella.


I hope you are enjoying the Hop, Thanks for visiting!
