Beautiful Bride Card

This week I worked on a special card. Weddings are coming up and I just love the “Beautiful Bride” stamps and thin cut set from Close to My Heart.

Plus I got to use more of the gorgeous “Cosette” paper.

Check out my video to see how this card came together….https://youtu.be/bGmf-8N0IKE

While todays stamp set is an olden but golden one, I am sure you can find something similar in your stash to recreate this card. The papers I used were regular Close To My Heart cardstock and one of our Mix-In papers. Haven’t heart about the Mix-In papers? Oh I love these small paper packs. You get 6 sheets in a package and they usually all work with the paper collections in the seasonal book. The beauty of this paper is that they all work on their own and with any of our paper packs. Neutral patterns and colors make them fit in everywhere.

Busting my stash with some Sawyer paper, Blush Glitter Paper and Document Dots. Thanks to Amy McGrew, a fellow make, who introduced me to the corner bookmark this months card comes with a surprise. The corner bookmark comes off the edge and is a nice little gift that comes with your Thank You card.

I used the Close To My Heart stamp of the month from March with the cute little critters. While this one is not available anymore, there are some cute alternatives available.

Close To My Heart’s Cardstock Carnival is back!

April is the month for stocking up on cardstock. I love the Close To My Heart cardstock because not only do you get on color with each sheet, no, you get two…. a lighter and darker tone of one color. Yes, thats right, our cardstock is two toned. Beside the multiple tone, I love that is also has a white core so when you rip the paper, it will have this nice white edge.

The quality is excellent and you always find that the colors match perfectly with the paper collections we have, past and current ones. It is the perfect weight for scrapbooking, cardmaking or 3-D objects.

In the month of April all single cardstock packages are on sale, plus there are mixed packages available and some special die-cuts with us coding. Here are all the offered available for you:
