CTMH portfolio workshop

I’m getting a little behind on my challenges, but I’ve been busy. For example, today my Close To My Heart hostess group met at my house, which meant cooking lunch (and it should have meant cleaning, but we know better, don’t we?). I made a nice manicotti and salad, and a cheesecake for dessert. After everyone arrived, we made this:


It’s a card portfolio, made from two 5x7 envelopes. Inside there are six cards, two each of three designs:

Yes, I have to show you the stamped, envelopes too.

She offered us ribbon for this one, too, but I had enough ribbon by this point.

Our demonstrator, Linda, always comes up with something new, and challenges us to do things that are different from how we normally do things. All this tearing and distressing is something I would never have done without her constant encouragement, but the look is growing on me, and I find myself doing it more and more even when I’m not in a workshop.

This stamp set is part of a special this month. It's a pretty cool kit, and a great way to check out the quality of CTMH is you've never used their products before.

Linda’s cat eats glue dots. I can’t even get my cat to eat cat food half the time.
