Holiday Expressions New Product Blog Hop

Welcome to the Holiday Expressions New Product Blog Hop featuring products from the latest Close To My Heart Idea Book. We have about 20 Independent Consultants sharing projects they created with new products in the CTMH Holiday Expressions Idea Book. We try to keep our blog hop easy by having a link to the next blog (typically near the bottom of the post) to visit the next stop; if you keep visiting the next blog you will work your way back to where you started.


You should have arrived here from ***Alayne Fleming's Willing Hands***. If you get lost along the way, Melinda Everitt keeps a list of participants on her blog at If You Bling It.

I started a card using the Wonder of the Season Stamp + Thin Cuts, Thin Cuts—Fancy Tags and Thin Cuts—Winter Flurries, but so far I have not been able to make work as I had it in my mind's eye.

If I manage to pull something out of my hat with the card I started for this hop, that is, get something created with paper, you will find the card further down, but in the meantime, let me show you some cards I created from the Workshops Your Way® You Got This Cardmaking Kit.

I like to create a variety of cards from the WYW Cardmaking Kits, but I like to keep it fairly simple so creating is quick. As you can see, the changes I made are really simple, I did not have to cut anything differently, but now I have a start to a larger variety of cards from one kit. Other ideas are to use the other side of the papers and different inks.

Before you visit ***Snips, Snaps, and Scraps by Kathy Burrows***, the supplies I used to create my project are listed below.

Here is a start to my "creative blocked" card. If you have any ideas for what to do to complete the card, please share in the comments.



All supplies are from Close To My Heart except where noted:
If you do not have a CTMH Independent Consultant, you may purchase all of the supplies I used on my Consultant website. Before you leave I would be delighted if you left me a comment letting me know what you think of my alterations. Thanks for hopping with us!

So you do not have to scroll back up, the next stop on the hop is ***Snips, Snaps, and Scraps by Kathy Burrows***.
