Happy New Year! CTMH January 2012 Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

Happy 2012! Let's ring in the new year with a Close To My Heart January stamp of the month blog hop! Check out all the great artwork with this versatile set, Little Reminders. (If you're hopping already, you should have arrived from Scrapi Traci's blog. Your next stop will be the talented Sarita Schraeder's blog.)

I'm really excited about what 2012 will be bringing, so be sure to come back often or even consider following my blog.

I have two projects for the Little Reminders stamp set. The first is a New Year's card using the Believe paper pack. I think Sky & Holiday Red look great together! (The "Happy" sentiment is from the stamp set.) Everything else is from the January stamp of the month. I created the little pinwheel with a 3/4"x12" scrap and then adhered the rhinestone button to the center with Liquid Glass. Of course I had to use some Red Glitter Glitz on this festive card!

My second project is one I've already shown, but for those who missed it, here is the title page for my 2011 highlights album. I am so excited about this project that I have created a "12 for 2012" tab at the top of my blog and a Facebook group by the same name to get scrapping in 2012! (Please check it out if you'd like to learn more!) My 2011 title page uses the Sophia paper pack and My Stickease. The center year date is from the Little Reminders stamp set. I just love these numbers!

My family and I wish you the very best in 2012. Feel free to leave a comment about any of my projects, etc., before hopping along to Sarita's blog. Happy 2012!
