CTMH Thin Cuts (aka Dies) Blog Hop

 

We are excited to share artwork made with some of our stand-alone Thin Cuts; that is, they are not associated with a stamp set. We have quite a few of them included in the NEW Core Idea Book that released September 1st. If you don't already have a copy,  you can view a digital version here.  

If you are coming from CatScrapbooking, you are on the right track. You can find a list of participants by clicking here. 

Believe it, or not, I did have a difficult time deciding which Thin Cut I was going to use. Being that I hadn't yet created with the Purse Card Thin Cut, I decided to go with it. 

If you are wondering where that patterned paper came from, it's part of the September/October Mix-In paper packet. I love the patterns and feel this one was perfect for making a fall/winter purse. 

Of course, I couldn't resisting adding some Gold Glitter Paper and added a bow made with the new color of Shortbread. (This photo is showing just the upper portion of the purse.) Who would have thought I would really like that color? (I did cut the handles twice, and glued them together, since there is a plain back on the glitter paper. I felt it made it look a bit more finished.)

Using the Purse Card Thin Cut, this card was super easy to assemble. I decided to add some white stitching using our White Gel Pen. 

Here is a look at the inside of the card. I loved stamping a simple sentiment, with a place to add a personalized message and signature. 

It's time to head over to Melinda's Blog to see what awesomeness she has created. Be sure to continue making your way around the hop. You're sure to find some awesome inspiration. Happy hopping!
