I finally made the cards from the Avonlea Cardmaking Kit. There are two of these kits in the Autumn/Winter Close to My Heart Catalog. The other is a Christmas theme. Each kit makes 15 beautiful cards, 5 each of 3 designs. It's really not difficult. Complete instructions are included. It took me around 2 hours to complete. All embellishments are also included, so you can use the coordinating ribbon and bling.
The November Stamp of the Month is "Capture the Date". When I looked at this set originally, I was not sure what I'd do with it, but once I started playing with it a bit, I came up with lots of ideas for it. The other really neat thing about the November special set is that when spending $50, you not only get it for $5.00, but the company will be making a $1.00 donation to the Hurricane Sandy effort for each set sold! Just another way to help those Americans along the East Coast who are in need.

As I begin looking toward Christmas, I used the Cricut Artiste cartridge to create a Gift Card Holder. It's quick and easy to make. What a neat gift....who doesn't enjoy Gift Cards?!!
