Each month, at Close To My Heart, we have an EXCLUSIVE stamp set available we call our "Stamp of the Month". 

Today, I'm sharing another card I created, using this BEAUTIFUL stamp set. 



  

First, if you don't know about our Stamp of the Month (SOTM) program...make sure to ask your CTMH Consultant!💗

Here is a look at this month's stamp set - "Reindeer Crossing". 



This stamp set can be yours for ONLY $5 with any $50 CTMH purchase during the month of December.



Let's chat about a few details on this card...

I used 3 of the stamp images, included in this stamp set.  I also used an ADDITIONAL stamp set, do you see it?? 



The "splotch" behind the 2 deer, comes from our "Strokes of an Artist" stamp set.  This is a stamp set, that I ALWAYS have in my stamp stash...and I use it quite often! 





Our NEWEST embossing folder....sigh....is all about SNOWFLAKES!



Look at the design this embossing folder creates.  I chose to run our White Daisy cardstock through the machine to get this snowflake background design. 

Oh the DETAIL & beauty this folder creates!! You'll notice I added a couple Julep colored glitter gems, to give some extra sparkle too. 

One of my FAVORITE, new items we carry at CTMH, are the NEW Tri-Blend alcohol markers.



  I didn't use them a lot on this card, but after stamping the pine cones with Memento ink pad, I colored & shaded them in with the Earth Brown & Dull Green markers.  You'l want to give them a try!



Thanks for stopping by today!  I hope you enjoyed my card & were inspired to create some of your own. 


Happy Crafting & have a LOVELY evening!!!
