Art Philosophy - Layout
I wanted to create something to show how versatile the Art Philosophy cartridge is. I created these layouts using only the Art Philosophy Cartridge (paper is CTMH Top Stitch). I used my daughters spring school photos for inspiration.

Bird Cage Card ....
The last few days, I have been addicted to using my cricut. It all started with the arrival of my Art Philosophy Cartridge and then like the icing on the cake my Sophie cartridge arrived. This card was made using the Sophie cartridge. I have found that if I create a cut file on my gypsy for the project in the front of the book it gives me a good sense of what the cartridge has to offer. This is my take on the project in the front of the Sophie cartridge book.

On a Roll ...Christmas Card Roll
I think this cooler weather we are experiencing here has put me in the mood for Christmas. So, I am inspired to make yet another Christmas Card. This time I used my gypsy and the Christmas Card Cartridge and Jingle paper.

Art Philosophy - Christmas Card
I just received my Art Philosophy cartridge and I can`t stop playing with it. It is amazing. My next few posts are going to be all about this cartridge. I am so glad that Close to My Heart decided to partner with Provo Craft to come up with this cartridge... there are over 700 AMAZING images on it... that is almost double the images on a regular cartridge. Plus you get 3 exclusive D size stamps sets (the stamp sets alone are worth around $60) and then you get 3 sets of die cuts (valued at around $22).
I love Christmas ... so I decided to start with some Christmas Cards...
This is my take on the Card featured in the catalogue (page 76)...I used a border punch(don`t know the name) to create some interest on the inside. It is difficult to see from the pic but the `holly` berries have Red Glitz Glitter on them for a little bit of bling!

Hidden Treasure
I was cleaning up my scrapping space and I came across a sparkly little Christmas Card (I know what you are thinking... Christmas but it is only August). But in January I love to take some of the Christmas Cards I receive and repurpose them into my own creation. Well this little card was missed back in January and it was soooo cute I couldn't through it out so I cut it apart and this is what I came up with.... what do you think?

Fabulous New Cricut Cartridge Coming to CTMH
In just a few days Close To My Heart's Fall/Winter Idea Book 2011 goes live to customers. One of the exciting changes to our product line is the addition of an excluseve Cricut cartridge that co-ordinates with many of the new stamp images in the new Idea Book. I have held off purchasing a Cricut, but this may be the extra push I need to finally pick one up. Here is a CTMH video describing the Cricut Art Philosophy Collection.
Fellow consultant Amanda Leahy has also created a great video to view the images on the cartridge.
