Here is the card I created this month.J

My card design came from our Make It From Your Heart #2 publication.

I used the NEW Heartstrings paper pack that will be arriving at CTMH on December 1st!! Wahoo!!! J

Take a look at this GORGEOUS new paper pack!!

These cupcake stamps needed some color, and this time I chose to color them in with our ShinHan alcohol markers.

First, I used my black pigment ink, and sprinkled clear embossing powder over top the ink & heat set it to have permanent lines prior to using my markers.

I wanted to use the NEW Heart embossing folder too!! I can’t WAIT to use more of this embossing folder…the hearts are ADORABLE!

Would you like to guess where the arrow came from?

Well, since you asked - the arrow is part of the Zip-Strip in this collection!! I LOVE Zip strips, and in case you don’t know what they are….they are an extra goodie that CTMH includes with ALL their designer sheets of paper!!

Zip-strips are a 1/2” strip at the top of all designer papers…there is a pretty design on one side, and a list of colors used in that particular paper collection on the other side!! What a FABULOUS little extra you receive when you purchase CTMH paper packs! J

Here is a list of Products I used on this card in case you'd like to create one of your own!
