CTMH Paper Bird Hostess Set with Blossom Paper Pack

Here's another card using the scraps from my CTMH Blossom WOTG Cardmaking Kit - That's 18 cards I've made now and I still have some scraps left.  I should be able to get a few more out of it.


My card design is from CTMH Make It From Your Heart Volume 2 - Pattern 20

I used the Butterfly and "so nice of you" stamps from the CTMH Paper Bird Hostess Stamp set from the Seasonal Expressions 2 catalogue.  This exclusive hostess stamp set is available for $5 this month only to all customers who place an order of $25 or more of My Acrylix stamps (or you can get the Stamp of the Month for FREE).

I stamped the Butterfly in CTMH Smoothie Exclusive Ink and popped it up with foam tape.

I used my CTMH Edge Distresser along the sides of the piece of Lagoon cardstock.  Close To My Hearts White Core cardstock is perfect for distressing or inking.

The floral background and striped piece are both leftover from the Blossom WOTG. I used my CTMH Corner Rounder to round out the two opposite corners of the floral piece.

The card front is Glacier cardstock with a layer of Kraft cardstock over that.   I stamped my sentiment on a scrap of Kraft cardstock and trimmed the ends.  I cut a very thin strip of foam tape and popped it up from the Lagoon piece.

I embellished the card with CTMH Coral Reef Sequins and CTMH Black Sparkle Flourish.

CTMH Paper Bird Hostess Rewards Stamp Set

Here's a card I made using the new CTMH Paper Bird Hostess Rewards Stamp Set.

I was inspired by a card made by Margi Gilbertson. I loved the colour combo that she used with this stamp set so I had to do one myself.  I changed it a bit, using the CTMH Glacier patterned cardstock from the Whimsy Fundamentals paper pack. I tied a little knot in the Glacier twine instead of a bow.

I would have loved to have done similar to hers but both of my hands are sore right now so I had to be happy with just a little bit of stamping and no bow tying.


I used my CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge to cut the circle, scallop circle and branch.



This stamp set is available as Hostess Rewards when your CTMH Gathering reaches $150 or more.  If you are in Canada and would like to be Hostess contact me at nshelmer@icloud.com for more information.   Online Gathering option is available via my CTMH website
