August 2021 CTMH News

How can it be August 1? I am writing this on July 31; all day long my mom has been thinking it is Sunday and I have to tell her it is Saturday, but I am also thinking how can tomorrow be the first day of August? Does the time seem to move faster because I am getting older or because I have lost all ability to budget/manage my time? I guess I need to re-teach myself the time management skills I think I had when I was in school.

The Recipes, a PDF file that lists the products used to make the samples in the July–August 2021 Catalog, lists everything used to create the cards above. You will find the Recipes under the page-turner catalog here. I am participating in a Tutti Frutti Summer blog hop this month; you will find my post on this blog tomorrow. Please visit my August SOTM (S2108) Tutti Frutti Summer Pinterest Board for other ideas to use the Tutti Frutti Summer stamp set.

It is Christmas in July, with Bring Back My Pack—White Pines, but this is a great winter-themed paper too if your celebration does not include Christmas. White Pines was originally introduced September 2015 in Holiday Expressions 2015. Back then the featured colors were Champagne, Chocolate, Colonial White, Cranberry, Fern and Glacier. For this Bring Back My Pack the papers have been refreshed with current colors: Avocado, Candy Apple, Espresso, French Vanilla, Glacier, and Toffee. There is a Sticker Sheet this time too.
