Oh, we didn't quit making cards with Chantilly paper...we tried the Dream Pop paper too! And combined it with the Pinwheels I made with the Cricut and the Pinwheel Stamp of the Month! So much fun!!!

Oh no...more?
Another Pinwheel Graduation card! We know a lot of HS grads this year!
The stencil is the reverse of the numbers I cut for the previous card, using the CTMH exclusive Cricut Artiste cartridge.

| Card A Card B |
And I love the glossy Dream Pop paper for backgrounds! Look at that shiny faux wood finish!
Card A uses a patterned strip off the top border of a double-sided sheet, and a non-CTMH sentiment.
For Card B, I cut this year's graduating class number using the Cricut Artiste cartridge, set at 1".

Pinwheel Graduation Card
At long last another pinwheel card! Pinwheel is the May SOTM for CTMH. I mixed it up with the CTMH Dream Pop paper.
I cut the card base from Whisper Cardstock into a 4.25x11 strip and folded it at the top. The outside of the pinwheel is cut using the Cricut Artiste cartridge (exclusive to CTMH). The inner piece is stamped with Cotton Candy ink, fussy-cut and attached with a pink glitter brad!!! Add A ribbon stem, a graduate sentiment from TPC Studio and viola!
I think the inner pinwheel piece can be cut using the Cricut, but I haven't experimented with it yet. Sometimes I just need to get a card done :).
The reason I have a separate blog other than CTMH is because I have other stamps and though I try, I find that I don't have exactly the words I need in my CTMH stash o'stamps. I just cannot be monogamous to CTMH.
I don't think it's a requirement of the company...and I would think they would want people to include CTMH products as part of a healthy stamping stash. I find that it expands my possibilities!
Well, enjoy the card!

Another Dream Pop Card
I used the Cricut CTMH Artiste cartridge to cut different sized pinwheels from my Dream Pop paper. The banner sentiment is included on the top strip of the patterned paper. The 2" and 2-3/4" pinwheels are the correct size for the May SOTM, Pinwheel. Once you have several different patterns cut they are easy to assemble!
