Share a Smile Blog Hop

A blog hop is a big loop through crafty, fun ideas for you to visit as you go from blog to blog to collect inspiration for your own paper crafting.  If you are coming from Gina's Little Corner of StampinHeaven, you are on the right path.  If you are starting here, just look for the link near the end of my post (and successive posts) to see which blog to visit next. 

This particular blog hop is connected to a wonderful special CTMH is offering this month.

(See more information at the bottom of this post.) Here is the cute stamp set, Punny Pals, used for this blog hop.

I love the cute sayings and the cards I could create, but when my 4 year-old granddaughter and I were looking at this set and I asked her to pick he favorite, she loved them all, so I created a two page layout to use with pictures and memories of her that are just too stinkin' cute!

THIS MONTH'S SPECIAL

With the purchase of every Punny Pals stamp set, $17.95, (shown above)  Close To My Heart donates $7 USD of the proceeds to Operation SmileTM, an organization that provides surgeries to repair cleft lips and palates for children around the world. 

• To bring these stamp images to life, Close To My Heart is also offering a coordinating set of Thin Cuts dies and an exclusive card kit during October. 

• The card kit includes the dies, card bases, envelopes, paper, and step-by-step instructions for creating 32 cards like those you see at the very top of this post, and it is available at a discounted price!  $39.95 (a $48.69 value) 
• If you already have the stamp set and want the Thin Cuts separately ($28.95) and/or cards separately, they are also available that way.  See more info on my website.
