S1608 Purr-fect Halloween Australasian Blog Hop


Hello and welcome aboard our August SOTM Australasian Close to My Heart Blog Hop.

If you have arrived here from Doris then you are in the right place, and this is also the start of this month's hop!

If you landed here by accident, no problem, please join in by following the link at the end of this post.

Today I would like to share with you a creation which features Close To My Heart’s August Stamp of the Month- Purr-fect Halloween.


Halloween is not as huge here in New Zealand as it is in America, however this stamp set is way more versatile than just Halloween projects.

I created this card for my friend who always jokes that she is going to end up as a crazy cat lady-this stamp set sentiment was purr-fect indeed!



I used the Art Philosophy Frame cricut cut and stamped the frame in Sweet leaf ink, then added the sentiment in Eggplant ink. I cut the cat pocket card from the Artfully Sent cricut collection. The Flaxen paper was leftover from the Regatta paper packet, and I also used a purple bow I had in my stash and some green epoxy triangles. I am entering this card in the Between The Folds Creative Cuts challenge and the Color My Heart Color Dare of Eggplant, Flaxen, Sweet Leaf and Colonial White.

This exclusive Stamp of the Month  is only available during August. It can be yours for just $10 with a qualifying order of $75 or for $33 if ordered separately from your CTMH consultant.

I'd love you to leave a comment before heading off to the next stop, Scrap Stamp Share.

  3. Isn't it funny how you can own the cricut collections and never notice a shape until you see it used - I love that cat pocket card. I know plenty of crazy cat ladies who would love this card.
