Cricut Art Philosophy by CTMH!

Yes! It is here... CTMH has released a Cricut cartridge that coordinates with tons of the new stamp sets in the New Fall Winter 2011 Idea Book. Here is what CTMH has to say about its arrival!!

We’re delighted to introduce the exclusive Close To My Heart Cricut^® Art Philosophy collection! We’ve worked with Provo Craft^* to bring you a Cricut^® cartridge filled with 700 shapes hand-selected by company founder and CEO Jeanette Lynton. Simply insert the cartridge into your Cricut^® machine (sold at retail stores) and you’re ready to cut any of the shapes with the touch of a button! Choose from stunning rosettes, unique gift boxes, elegant doilies, crafty banners, and more. The exclusive images are incredibly versatile, and many are designed to be used with specific My Acrylix^® stamps for real eye-popping power!

CARTRIDGE & MORE

Bring your artwork to life with stamps and chipboard Dimensional Elements! When you purchase the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge,^** you’ll also receive three exclusive D-size stamp sets and three sets of Dimensional Elements designed to perfectly coordinate with images on the cartridge. That’s a retail value of over $120 US / $140 CAN for just for $99/$109.95! Stamp on your Cricut shapes; cover your Dimensional Elements with a Cricut shape; or cut, stamp, and then cover!

COMPLEMENTARY STAMP IMAGES

Numerous My Acrylix^® stamp images in our Idea Book pair wonderfully with images on our Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge. When you see the Cricut icon or a stamp image outlined in red in the Idea Book, you will know there’s a matching shape on your Art Philosophy cartridge. Cut out the coordinating shape with your Cricut machine using the setting indicated on the stamp’s carrier sheet, then stamp your image on the base shape—quick and easy!

MAKE IT FROM YOUR HEART ART GALLERY

Autumn/Winter 2011 Idea Book

Get inspired! We’ve gathered amazing artwork from Consultants and Close To My Heart to highlight how you can use Close To My Heart products in beautiful and exciting ways.

This layout uses the new paper pack Typeset, and is one of my favourites! Definitely has a graphic and vintage feel to it. I loved playing with the corrigated chipboard shapes and the paint to make it very artsy. The Workshop uses the new Cricut cartridge too! so less cutting for all of us. If you don't have the Cricut, I have a template for you to borrow for the center design. The image design below is one featured in the Make It From Your Heart Art Gallery. Check it out and see all the new papers and inspiring art work!

Free Double D stamp set!! Make a qualifying purchase and get these 2 stamp sets for free! They have the most wonderful sentiments, which are always a welcome addition to any stampers collection! Available only until the end of September!
