On Sunday, a couple of fellow consultants and I held our first ever CTMH Test Panel. We invited some folks who we thought might enjoy seeing and testing out the new products, looking at some products in ways they've never seen before, and trying out products they never thought they would try. We had forms available to attendees to provide feedback on the various items. We had displays for everything,...

TBT
For today's TBT I pulled out a card I made with CTMH's retired Silhouette paper. This card shown on my Instagram account was one of our most beloved and versatile paper packs from our Spring 2008 Idea Book. It is a testament to this paper that people still see it and want to get their hands on it!
When I decided to make this card, it was because I wanted to learn how to do teabag folding,...

TBT
I suspect not everyone is familiar with the acronym "TBT", but many of you reading this have likely seen it. For those of you who are not familiar, it means "Throw Back Thursday" and has become a widely used acronym and hashtag across the internet to typically show pictures, images and other items from years past. Therefore, I thought it might be fun to do a weekly feature to include the...

August 2015 Stamp of the Month - Framed
The "Framed" Stamp of the Month for August is perfect for applying sentiments to cards and other paper crafting projects. For the following sample from my Instagram account, I used the Blossom paper pack with this stamp set to create a "thinking of you" card for a special person in my life. The sentiment and frame were both embossed using pigment ink and clear embossing powder. I love to emboss!...
