Heart 2 Heart- A Sketch







Hello, it is Monday again already, I hope you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving weekend, I know I did. Daddy got to be home from work for 4 whole days, we got about 6 inches of wonderful fluffy snow perfect for playing in, lots of leftovers and we played lots of UNO. Now it's time to get back to school and work. The challenge this week at H2H Challenges is a sketch challenge, which by the way I love it gives you a great starting point. For my card today I used the wonderful "Mistletoe" paper which I just adore, I also used the Father CHristmas stamp set for the sentiment which I stamped in New England Ivy, then I colored in the berries with a cranberry marker. Now do you notice those lovely red pearls? They are from CTMH, they are our Opaques they just happened to start out white and I colored them. I really wanted red so I just colored them with a red Copic marker while they were still on the carrier sheet and then let them dry. AHHH the perfect solution to make any color you wish, this also works on our clear sparkles as well. That super cute button was made with cranberry cardstock and a button Die-namics die from MFT. I hope you all head on over to H2H and be inspired by the fabulous stuff the design team created this week, then try out the sketch for yourself using mostly CTMH products then link it up on the H2H blog and hey you never know you just might be featured in the next Friday Five.
