Gotta love a cute bunny!!! Think Easter, spring, pets, vegie gardens, babies or just cute kids. This stamp set will suit everyone. I just love the picture cards so I used the sponge and ink pads and made a picture. The tree is a scrap of cardstock embossed with the woodgrain embossing folder and a paper tearing grass adds to the picture with stamped rabbits that are fussy cut and added to the card. Simply colour with Shin Han markers

Big Tip.....When stamping an image that has fine parts like whiskers then stamp the image to the background...fussy cut the additional image with our great fine tip scissors and cut off the whiskers. The whiskers are there as part of the background image......you would never know!!

Sugar rush is one of the packs exclusive to Close To My Heart and part of the NEW Seasonal Expressions catalogue that will be available for the next 4 months. This pack is being featured for January and available for the life of the catalogue or until stocks last. It is a fun kit with doughnuts and icecreams and all things fun and summery with bright colours or a fun palette for little girls. You will see a wonderful array of ideas throughout this blog hop

This wonderful kit has a great stamp set that matches and accompanying thin cuts for easy cutting .....purchase it as a bundle

Sometimes you need to be even more creative when you realise you dont have this wonderful matching bundle. Using the basic circle thin cuts, cut some of the circles from the large circle patterned paper. Add some embellishments from the complements pack and you get a great design for a card or a scrapbook page..... add bling

The beautiful flowers in the set can be used as black and white images or stamped onto patterned paper or coloured with our Shin Han markers. This sample was stamped onto paper from the basics paper pack and coloured with pink Shin Han markers. Spend some time fussy cutting with our amazing fine tip scissors.

The heart looks great. Second generation stamping in whisper forms the background of the card and then stamp some in cranberry ink on white card stock and fussy cut. Add to card with 3D foam. Stamp the single flower using masking technique and colour with Carmine Shin Han marker. Outline some of the background images with the black journal pen. So many ideas can be used for cards or album pages.

The stamp set is easy to use and has beautiful flower designs. I incorporated

these into a great card design but it could easily be adapted for a page layout.

I just love CTMH Thick twine, Gold Bling as our decorative accessories.

The tall cake stand reminded me of a bouquet of flowers so it is incorporated with the cute flower image and cut out of the beautiful paper from the NEW palette Florence to make a great anniversary card. Stamps allow us the freedom to be creative. It doesn't just have to be about the cake.....What can you create?

For the last 3-4 months we have enjoyed the Seasonal Expressions 1...a supplement to our annual ideas book or catalogue. This wonderful selection of products finishes on April 30th so we wanted to share with you our favourite products so you can make sure you get them before they are gone. If you haven't seen the supplement then take a look....SE1

I just love flowers and this stamp set is just beautiful....C1641 Springtime Wishes. This set matched with my other favourite products the 'thincuts'. Thincuts are dies that match the stamp set. This set of thincuts sold out...can you imagine! It was so popular that it sold out!! But the great news is you can still order the stamp set and cut the images out with our amazing Fine tip scissors. These cards are a huge hit and one is coloured with watercolour paints and the other is coloured with our Shin Han markers. Make sure you order the stamps NOW!

These are the same flowers but instead of colouring them in they are stamped onto patterned paper or plain cardstock. Our Zoe paper palette complements the Charlotte papers so well. Charlotte will be gone on April 30th so get in now....so many favourite products. Going going...nearly gone

One of our fellow bloggers Denise shared this beautiful card and again I just had to make it. If you love these projects then make sure you order your flower stamp set C1641 Springtime wishes before the end of April. If you are interested in the New line of thincuts then check out the ones that are still left until the end of April. Have fun crafting!
