It's Hello Thursday and you know what that means, right? Provo Craft has a monthly launch of new cartridges and today is that exciting day!
First off lets talk about the giveaway, I am giving away a Best of 2009 cartridge!
To win all you have to do is:
1) be a follower of this blog (either through blogger or email)
2) leave a comment on this post.
Its that simple! I will draw a winner next Thursday!
Scandinavian Christmas Cards: This cartridge has images that are reminiscent of German Christmas festivals. The cuts are easy to assemble and look great on cards, layouts, home decor, and even bags (you know I had to make a bag, right?). This cartridge also includes some great word art, envelopes, and card shapes.
 |
| I used Close To My Heart cardstock, ribbon, and stamps. The glitter cardstock is from DCWV. |
 |
| I cut the ornament out at 2 1/2". |
 |
| The stamp set is from Close To My Heart and called Christmas Love .The oval shape is a die cut from My Creative Time. |
 |
| I used the cuttlebug folder called Sparkle. |
 |
| With this card I was trying to give it a carved wood look. The glitter paper is from DCWV. |
 |
| I cut the 'Joy' cut out at 3 1/2". |
 |
| All supplies for this layout are from Close To My Heart. |
 |
| I cut the title out at 2 1/4". The star is cut out using the Art Philosophy cartridge and then stamped using the coordinating stamps that come with the bundle. |
 |
| The journaling tags are made using the September stamp of the month from Close To My Heart. The star is cut out using the Art Philosophy cartridge and then stamped using the coordinating stamps. The star cut was then mounted on the coordinating chipboard to give it some depth. |
 |
| I cut out baby Jesus at 4". |
Thanks so much for popping by today! I will be back here tomorrow with the last bag of the week, but this bag is made using the NEW Scandinavian Christmas card cartridge!

Hard to think about Christmas when we are just closing the pool! very pretty. And I love the embossing folders used. Thanks
Love what you did with the new Christmas cartridge! I could see myself using it for lots of home decorations as well as cards. Thanks for all the fantastic ideas!
Your projects always do a great job of opening my mind up to the possibilies of each new cartridge. Sometimes all you do is change a color scheme and I change my mind from "absolutely not" to "hmmm, can I do without this one?"
I really want to get my hands on the Scandinavian cartridge. If for nothing else but the cute Christmas gift box / bag. We have so many on our candy / cookie list and that would make such a great gift! Good job and thanks for posting!
Super cute projects. Love that Scandinavian Christmas.
Great Cards, wonderful ideas
Fortunately for my budget, these are not "must have" carts for me. But if you keep making gorgeous Christmas cards, I might have to pick up that one!

Love! Love! Love your wreath today! Gives me some new ideas. It's always so hard to find a simple, elegant, modern wreath. I am working out the design in my head! Thank you!
I love your projects. I always get so many ideas from your site. Brdchan@ shaw.ca
I love this new cartridge and the fact that you are a CTMH consultant. I am too and I just got a Cricut and I'm loving it. I hate that I didn't get one sooner.
I like this cartridge, it looks like a lot of fun and you came up with some great ideas.
Oh boy oh boy oh boy! I'm a follower and fingers crossed that I win. PS, cute cards. I like the Joy one, I would love to get that in the mail. BTW, what do you do with all your cards you make? I'm just curious, do you mail them all, give them out as gifts, etc? I always have such great intentions for my cards and they wind up just sitting there, never mailed.
I love the Christmas cards but totally fell in love with the flower wreath you made! It is totally awesome!! Can't wait to try to make one like it!
Gosh oh gosh! Love your wreath and hope to copy it this weekend! Getting my E2 ready to make the flowers and have a fun Fall decoration ready toput up SOON!
As always, you ROCK!
Who doesn't love the Best of anything offered. Thanks so much for the chance to have some Best in my life :)

Pick me! Pick me! Seriously, anyone would be happy to have this cart to work with. Thanks for the ideas.
I love the "Joy" card especially! These are all so pretty, though!
