A crazy kitty cat!

It's my birthday month! And it's almost over! And that means the August Stamp of the Month is almost over too! Before it is, I wanted to share this silly cat card using the August Stamp of the Month with you. It makes me smile.


Here is the Stamp of the Month set in its entirety. But you have to order by tomorrow or it is gone!


One last shot of that crazy cat. I thought the googly eyes were appropriate. 


Happy Crafting!

Calypso for Summer!



My daughter just reminded me that school starts in two weeks. Two weeks folks! Since the Olympics is in full swing and I have a tendency to get swept up in the games, that two weeks will go even faster than expected.

Along with the passing of August will be the end of the most recent Seasonal Expressions. If you missed out on some of your favorites from the last Annual Inspirations catalog as it retired, don't miss out on some of your favorites from this seasonal catalog. And that includes Calypso.


This paper packet embodies summer! It makes me wish I were sitting on a beach somewhere. I need a last minute summer vacation just so I can get the perfect photos for these pages.


These is one of the three layouts featured at my Cherish Your Memories August workshops. Interested? Order the workshop your way from me and I'll provide you the cutting guide.

Happy Summer!

New Catalog! New Papers! New Stamps!


It's that time of year again. A brand new Annual Inspirations is now available. As of August 1, you can order from this lovely new catalog with all of its new toys.


As a consultant, I get an early product preview so I had some time to play with some new stuff before August 1st. If you love color and pattern then you are going to love the new Fundamental paper packets and coordinating complements.


I played first with the Adventure Fundamentals packet.You can check out all of the Fundamental packets at my website, blythe.ctmh.com. Look at these great patterns. There are new colors introduced in this catalog as well.


Here's a close up. I love these gold accents in the Good Life complements.


Here is the second page of my layout. The pictures don't do justice to the colors.


And more of those gold accents.


I can't wait to play with more of the great new product in this new catalog! I hope it inspires you as well.
