October Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

You should have arrived here from Kritine's Blog
and when you're down perusing my stuff you can head over to DiAnn's
(don't worry, I'll post the link again at the end of this post)

Okay, this is not my artwork (it's from corp).  I am internet-less  at the moment and posting this from a friends house.  However, the two photos below are mine...and once I have time to play with editing and stuff I will update this post.

And now, hop over to DiAnn's

Chirstmas Cheer--stamp set

This is one of my favorite stamp sets.
I used it to make my 3D Christmas Centerpiece album and I am using it again on this card

I used the CTMH Art Philosophy Cartridge to cut out the "shapes"
....soooo easy, just set the dial to your size & quantity and walk away.

CTMH's new color palette

Okay, I know this is kinda cheating, but Christine says it so much better than I could.  (of course she did practice, before she got it just right) 
However...I am excited to unveil our new markers---great for blending (they might not be copics, but at $5.95 for a set of 2{base & shade} they are very affordable and still get the job done)  I have not had the opportunity to play with our pigment inks, but I've heard good reviews from fellow consultants.

Clue #9--the reveal

Drum roll please...... if you are at CTMH Regionals in Edmonton,
 you've should have had time to see this.
If not, here it is....
Tell me if your guess was any where close.

This is a 3D Christmas Centerpiece Album---constructed completely from "Close to my Heart" products.
(well, except for the empty peanut can)
Instructions for this project will be available in the near future.

Some of the items you will need to complete this project
X7162B      Pear & Partridge Paper Pack
1385           White Daisy Cardstock
1272           Cranberry Cardstock
1273           Dessert Sand Cardstock
Z2419         Cranberry Marker
Z1790         CTMH exclusive Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge---this is a must have
                    and once you have it you will wonder how you did without it---over 700 images
Z1789       Chalkboard Adhesive Sheet
Z1732       Color Ready Seam binding
Z679         Liquid Glass---another must
Z1313       Stardust Glitz Glitter
Z1482       Silver Glitz Glitter
D1494       Christmas Cheer Stamp set
Z1360      Designer Rhinestone Brads
Z1151     3D foam tape--another must have
and one empty peanut can---or if you are allergic to peanuts---any other "paper" can approximately 4" in diameter and 3"--4" tall will do.
Oh...and lots of adhesive
--the liquid glass works well for those items that really have to stick together or that red tacky tape
--tombow adhesive (1514) is my choice for most everything else.

Now, I think that's about all you will need to re-create this project.
