What a beautiful card…I love how you came with just what you wanted to use but no plan …. it was fun seeing your ideas come together…..because that’s how I work too….and thanks for the masking idea … I never knew of this technique but will be using it often for sure…..and your idea for a stamping block would’ve never thought of this either…so enjoy your bits of time off….and thanks for sharing…you are one talented gal….wish I had the bucks to buy the whole Close to my Heart cartridge and stamps…..and ink pad….as I love it all….
Happy Holidays to you and your family! I also wanted to let you in on a little “secret”…You can get the CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge for HALF OFF by hosting a qualifying Home Gathering, and use it as a Hostess Plus! half off item!

Great Great Card! I’m starting to use stamps more in my cards instead of just the Cricut. Thanks !!
Beautiful Card and so quick to make. I never would of thought of using the Cuttle Bug plate for a large block…that is so clever! I like the pearls that you used. I will have to buy some of that.
Enjoy your Holiday and hope to see more of your videos for ideas.
Thanks for sharing

I just love the the Art Philosophy cartridge…and I especially love the clear stamps. This is why I joined the company!!
This card is simple and elegant. I love it.
Gorgeous card Megan. I agree this is a great cartridge. I’m using it to make my Christmas cards this year but it is definitely not just a Christmas cartridge.
Megan, thank you so much for a wonderful year of tutorials and other things that you have done for us in 2011. I know 2012,is going to even be better. Enjoy your time off with the family. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year as well.
I have this cartridge that was my early Christmas gift to me. Love the card, thanks for sharning. Be bless, Schuyler
Please help! I have to have those Chinese stamps for my sister who adopted a baby from China! Where can I get them?
Hi, if you haven’t heard from anyone yet – it’s from Close To My Heart, called Kanji Phrases, Item #C1339 for $13.95. I can order it for you or you can order it through my website – online shopping is easy! Good luck.
Nice Job! I wish I could afford all that you have!!!
You go girl
Love the simple holiday card! I better get started on my cards now that I have my holiday family portraits.
Also, I wanted to take this time to say thank you for a wonderful year of tutorials and all the wonderful tips you’ve shared with us. Take the time to enjoy your family during this joyous holiday season.
Great card! I am loving all that you do! I’m a newbie just starting out. I have a long way to go…. Thanks for sharing!
I love this card. I think you’ve sold me on getting this cartridge. I wonder if it would be possible for you to list the items you used in making your projects, so I wouldn’t have to replay the video again since I don’t usually get them all when I’m watching. Have a blessed holiday.
Hi, I sell Close To My Heart and would love to sell you the cartridge if you have not already found a rep near you. Remember, if you hostess a party (and we have an Inernet Party that requires no work from you), you can earn the cartridge for 1/2 off. It comes with 3 large stamp sets and 3 sets of dimensionals. It’s great! I just got mine this week.
Hi – I love when winter cards can be for ALL WINTER and not just for Christmas. This is a good one for that.
Megan,
When you use the CTMH stamps you need to condition the stamps before you use them by stamping them on scratch paper a couple of times. Also make sure to use the squishy insert under your paper you are stamping on. This should ensure you don’t get blotchy results. Just wanted to pass that on to you.
LOVED all the great tips today! Thanks so much for sharing!
Great video. Happy Holiday’s to you and your family.
Love the card Megan, thanks for the great idea!!!
Brenda W.
Wonderful, look like a must have cartridge
Beautiful card ! Looks like a great cartridge and I love the stamps you showed us !
Totally love that card. Might have to ask for that cartridge for Christmas.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family. Love the card and that sure is a great cartridge.
Beautiful card ! Love the cartridge and the stamp set. Thank you for a wonderful year of tutorials and all the wonderful tips you’ve shared with us. You and your family have a blessed and joyous holiday season.
WOW!!!! It doesn’t matter what you do — it turns out FABULOUS!!! I really would love that Art Philosophy cartridge/stamp set, and if it’s still available after the New Year, I may just treat myself.
Have a very Merry Christmas with your family, Megan, and I look forward to the class on December 15.
Hugs!
Beautiful card. I love that cartridge and the stamps. Wonderful job. Thanks Megan
Hi Megan,
God has surely blessed you and shown His favor upon you. You have so much to offer and share. I work on cards and my style is clean and simple and I love what I do. I don’t have much but am so blessed by God’s grace and love. May you have a wonderful Christmas and I am a super big fan of your’s as I continue to see how God has blessed and taken care of you. God is so good!
Be Blessed,
Audrey

I love this tutorial – great card. Thank you for sharing
Really a beautiful card. I just love the stamp that you used. Thanks
love the card,also love the stamps. Going on the website now to order cartridge
Beautiful card. Have an awesome, well deserved time off, Also wishing you and your family the most blessed of Christmas time. Jesus is the Reason for the Season !!!
LOVE the card! You are so creative. The tutorial is great…love it…especially the sneeze (bless you), the missing mat, and the cutting error…I am still a newbie at crafting (card making, scrapbooking, etc.) and I can SO relate to those things…LOL!! Thank you for taking the time to do these tutorials. May you and your family have a blessed holiday season and a great 2012!
What a nice holiday card. I just love those stamps.
I LOVE the card!! I actually became a CTMH consultant in order to get the Art Philosophy cartridge, and it was even better than I thought it would be! And then I fell in love with their stamps…
I’ve become a total addict!! Have a wonderful Christmas with your family, Megan!!
Thanks Megan, Great Card. Happy Holidays.
So beautiful. Soft colors and a lovely winter scene.
I so enjoyed the project. I will look forward to more.
I will be going to a weekend crop put on by a CTHM consultant. The Art Philosphy cartridge will be on my order form. Have a great holiday season. I will be looking forward to the new year and all your new ideas.
Using the Cuttle Bug plate as a large block was a great idea. I am new to stamping, and have stayed away from larger stamps but not anymore! Thanks Megan! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your team.
I LOVE this card. I wish I could have all the wonderful products you used for this card…I guess I’ll have to get creative to replicate the stamp! Thank you for this “farewell 2011″ video. It’s a warm welcome to the Christmas season! Happy birthday to your little ones!
This is my favorite time of year for scrapbooking. Enjoy your family and I’ll look forward to your tutorials in the new year.
When you stamp use the foam that comes with the stamp set under you paper. This gives you a cushion and lets you get a crisp, clean image.
Hello Megan,
I wanted to say Thanks to you for a great year of wonderful projects,giveaways and so much more. I wish you a Holiday season filled with wonderful things. Have fun spending time with your family and friends.

Hi, Megan,
I have the Art Philosophy Cart, but the month I bought it in did not have that particular stamp set. But I do love the cartridge. Well worth the money. Have a wonderful holiday with your family and friends.
Dianne Bell.
Beautiful card! Happy Holidays!
Thanks for the easy to follow tutorial. Now I can start my holiday cards by combining Cricut cuts and CTMH stamps; sometimes I get in a rut and use the same tools over and over- Now I can let my creative counter get cluttered with all those orphaned stamp pads, glitter pens, holiday prints, and even unused cuts sitting around! Holiday blessings to you and your family….
Beatiful!! Love this card…and I also love Melanie…
Have a great holiday!!
Mickey
Just a little tip for stamping with the acrylic stamps . . . . Each CTMH stamp set comes with a piece of soft plastic material that should be placed under the piece you are stamping on. You will get a much better image. It acts like the cushion that is on rubber stamps. They should also be seasoned by stamping on a scrap a couple of times or using the eraser like you did. Loved the card and the cartridge is now my #1 go to also. Have a wonderful and safe Holiday, can’t wait for January and your new tutorials.
Megan, I am a bit jealous of you. I would so love that cartridge and stamp set. I was able to use a friends at a scrap weekend and didn’t want to use hardly any other cartridge. I like the helpful little hints you have. Your videos are always fun to watch. Have a merry Christmas.
Finally decided to take the plunge and ordered your dvd’s Cricut 2nd edition and Gypsy. My Christmas wish is learning how to use my supplies and making some beautiful projects.
Wishing everyone a joyous and peaceful holiday…HAPPY CRAFTING!!!!
Beautiful Megan…i have never heard of a white eraser.. (I don’t get out much. lol) where would I find one?
Lovely card! You’re an inspiration, your tutorials are so relaxed and fun! I have that cartridge, I LOVE it!
I agree, that stamp set is such an awesome collection! Thanks for the ideas!
I just wanted to compliment you on how you do the videos. Love that you show what is done from above, nothing is missed. It makes it so much better than showing from the front. I agree with one of the above posts, never would have thought to use the cuttlebug plate. Scrapbookers are so inventive. One thing I would like to ask is where did you get your two tone pink cricut? I am a serious pink lover and have been looking for a completely pink cricut. Recently on black friday I saw one advertised in a sale paper from Menards. Thought I had hit the jackpot. But of course they didn’t have them. I have even been playing with the idea of painting my expression two tone pink. Don’t know how that will work, hope I don’t mess things up. Again loved your videos from above. Thanks for sharing.
Beautifully created card and video.
Thanks for the fun.
M.D.
Loved the video!!!! I am going to make that card right now! Adorable! There is a foam sheet that comes with the stamp sets and that works great under your paper to get a perfect image when stamping!!!
Carol
Love it! Thanks for sharing!
