CTMH Featured Products Blog Hop - Fundamentals

Hello and welcome to our CTMH Featured Products Blog Hop. This week our featured products are the new Fundamentals Papers, Fundamentals Complements and the Fundamentals Ribbon Packs.  Have you checked them out??  OH MY GOSH I am in LOVE with their versatility!!  These can be used as a stand alone paper OR be paired with Close to my Heart's featured paper packs.  

If you have just joined us you can start here and continue on, as this is a circular hop or if you get lost along the way you can find the complete list at the end of this post.   If you came here from Donna Digby over at Dat's My Style, you are in the right place. Now on to my project:

I have a couple of different projects I want to share with you!!  The first is a card that I created using the tea pot from CTMH's new Flower Market Cricut cartridge.  This is the first time I have played with this cartridge and I am in LOVE!!  LOL  Initially, this card was supposed to be my featured project for the Fundamentals.  BUT I ended up only using the Canary yellow striped paper.  I mean, I GUESS I did use paper from the Whimsy Fundamentals paper pack... so TECHNICALLY it counts!  lol



I LOVE the White Glitter Paper used as an accent around the tea pot!!  When I first cut out the outline for the tea pot, I used White Daisy CS.  But I got a speck of glue on it, which turned black for some reason, and ended up not being able to use it.  SO instead of cutting out another outline in White Daisy...I remembered I had some White Glitter paper!!  Don't you just love it when mistakes turn out for the better???  

Since I may have failed at "featuring" the new Fundamentals papers, ribbons, and complements with the card, how about a cover page I created to go along with a workshop I am holding featuring the Adventure Fundamentals Paper pack and Good Life Complements.  


This page also features the new Star Thin Cuts.  I used Black Glitter Paper for the outlines of the stars, then adhered them onto patterned paper and cut out the extra paper around the outside of the star.  LOVE the way they turned out and how they complete the page!!


Thank you SO much for checking out my project. If you would like to purchase our featured product of the week or any additional supplies you can buy them here Jen.CTMH.com. If you enjoyed my project please comment below as we love feedback! Next on our blog hop is Corinna Murphy's over at Corinna's Crafts.  Make sure to check out her amazing work featuring this same product.


Thanks SO much for stopping by!!  See you on Wednesday September 7th as we will be featuring the new Thin Cuts!!!   I guess I'm ahead of the game this go round!  lol  But never fear, I will have something else created featuring them!
