Capture the Date, Capture the Savings and Gratitude

Counting Blessings card

First of all, THANK YOU to everyone who shopped with me on my Black Friday sale. I am SO GRATEFUL for my Close To My Heart customers and friends!  I am blessed beyond measure to have this wonderful CTMH business, to be able to make a great living doing something I love, and to be able to meet so many wonderful people who share my love of paper crafting. So often my customers become some of my very best friends!  I am blessed!

Today I am sharing another card (4 1/4" x 5 1/2") I made with the November Stamp of the Month (Capture the Date).  I have really enjoyed this set and know you will too.  I'm also sharing two November specials: Capture the Date and Capture the Savings. Don't miss either one!

CAPTURE THE DATE:  Remember, with a $50 purchase (before shipping and tax) this stamp set ($17.95 value) is yours for only $5! You can shop right on my website conveniently.

November Stamp of the Month: Capture the Date (actual size of carrier sheet is 6" x 6")

 Keep reading. At the end of this post I will have a supplies used list for this card. To see the technique I used to create the numbered background paper on this card, check out this post.

BONUS...CAPTURE THE SAVINGS: When you take advantage of the offer above (spend $50 and get the November Stamp of the Month for $5) you also get any stamp set in our current Idea Book for half off.  $1 of that will go to the Red Cross relief efforts for Hurricane Sandy! Nifty! Both of these specials end at 11:50 (MST) on November 30.  You can shop right on my website conveniently.
