March 2024 Stamp of the Month

Just Chicken In March Stamp of the Month

   

For March I used two ideas from Becca Witham

She created the two on the right and I copied them. 

I had the Thin cuts that went with set.  Thin cuts are currently on backorder but  these shapes are easily cut out using scissors.

A tip:  to make flat embellishments like the black dots here punch out matching cardstock (or glitter paper as shown) with a paper punch.  You may then cover them with Liquid glass if you want more shine and height. 

 

 

This Stamp of the Month is only $5.00 with a $50 product order or FREE with a $50 product order if you are a VIP.

 

 

Please go to my website at https://pamsheartart.closetomyheart.com

 

You will see these stamps on my website homepage.  

We are also having a Cardstock Carnival  with single packs or a bundle being on sale.  My bundle arrived on Saturday  --WOOHOO!

There are a few more days to take advantage of these March offers!

With heart, Pam

Silver Bells Digital Shapes for November

 As it is getting closer to Christmas, I decided to have 

some simple-to-put-together cards

for the November classes.

Perfect for this was the Silver Bells Digital Art Images

available at my website at

https://pamsheartart.closetomyheart.com

They full set is only $!0.00 and no shipping!

You must have a digital cutting machine (mine is Cricut) 

that will work in Design Space.

 

I designed a Slimline card (inspired by Lori Symank)

an embossed card with a digital image (Noel),

and a bookmark card with a bookmark that can be removed 

and used by the recipient.

 

 

I used my Cricut in Design Space to cut the bows and bells

 on the first card, the Noel on the second card and the 

Silver Bell and bow on the third card.

There are many different sentiments available to

stamp on the cards.

 

These cards will be very easy to create quickly!

 

Happy November!

With Heart, Pam

 

Autumn projects featured in October

 

The projects offered in October used the 

Seasonal Goody Basket, Z8043

 

and the Maple Leaf Thin Cuts Z8043.

 

  Both are still available through my website at 

https://pamsheartart.closetomyheart.com

 

These are the cards we made:

 Featured techniques were how to make the wood background  and

various ways to color images on the cards.  Markers, colored pencils, and sponges

with ink were used.

With heart,

Pam

"View catalog"  July -August will be there on July 1!

 

I loved the colors and designs of CAPE COD from the first moment I saw it!

It is my pleasure to share with you the cards you can make with the 

CAPE COD Cardmaking Workshop Kit  G 1284

Here is what you get in the kit that makes 4 of each card.

 And here are the cards I made:

 

 

This beach bag can be one of the projects you choose to do in my Grove classes.

It will hold five cards and envelopes for gift giving. 

 

Then there was the moment I realized I had a photo I would like to put 

on a page and these colors, stamps and Thin Cuts found in the Cardmaking Workshop Kit

would be so perfect for helping me in this project.

 

I am over-the-top happy with this result.

 

And now for the Stamp of the Month 

 

I adapted ideas from Makers Becca Witham, Tracey Ling and 

Cheryl Glass Arbo to create these cards.

If you wish to participate in one of my card classes in Grove, OK, 

please email me at pamsheartart@boltfiber.net for more information.

Long distance friends who submit an order on my website (cart at the top)

can count on receiving a card (made by me) for every $25 in product ordered.

I look forward to helping you make July a wonderfully creative month!

With heart, Pam

 

 

 

BOTANICAL SHADOWS June 2023 Stamp of the Month

 Botanical Shadows

June Stamp of the Month

Using ideas from Lucy Jones, CTMH Maker,

I created these projects with the Stamp of the Month

The item on the easel is a mini album that folds up and can be stored in a 4x6 Flip Flap adapted for this purpose.

I stamped the botanicals in black and added a bit of 

Gold Shimmer Brush for accent.

You can have the Stamp of the Month for $5 with a $50 order -or-

If you are a VIP with $50 order, it is FREE.

Hello Darlin' for June

 The Hello Darlin' papers for June can double as patriotic themed

for your Memorial Day or 4th of July pictures!

The vibrant colors of Candy Apple Red and Sapphire used with White Daisy make

the images pop off the card or layout!

G 1282 Hello Darlin' Cardmaking Workshop Kit would yield 4 of each of these cards

and has everything you need except inks to create them.  It is $31.95
 

These are the supplies you get in your workshop kit.  Notice you get

16 card bases and envelopes along with the Thin Cuts and stamps/

 

Here are my cards for June using Hello Darlin'

 

 

You can see the two 'corner" cards on the left are actually bookmarks

that can be lifted off for use by the recipient.  I used the D2049 In a Book

stamp set to add "Just One More Chapter"to the front of the bottom card.

While I did not use the star dies from the Cardmaking Kit, the ones included in that

kit would certainly work well.  I finished the designs with A1283 To Another Year

for the sentiment.   

For those ordering on my website, I will send one of these cards 

for every $25 in product you order.

With Heart, Pam

  

Hey Handsome kit for May

Hey Handsome is the featured kit for May

I absolutely love this kit G1279 for the masculine cards

you can make.  Think Father's Day and Birthday.

BUT it can also be used for feminine cards when using the 

Thin Cuts with other papers and stamps as shown 

in the cards designed by Becca Whitham.  

 

Using the Thin Cuts in this way adds so much value to the kit which you will surely grab time after time as a favorite!

When you order through my website in May

 (cart at the top of page or

https://pamsheartart.closetomyheart.com  )

I will send you one of the these cards for every $25 in product you

order as a thank you.  

With heart,

Pam
