Heat it Up!...means getting out that fabulous heat tool!

I adore Sparkle & Shine & love to incorporate it into whatever project I'm working on.

Today, my "shiny" card was created with our BEAUTIFUL Mix-In papers.
Take a look...

I enjoy Heat Embossing very much & it's been a while since I did embossing on my ENTIRE card -- sentiment and all!

Let's take a look at the stamp sets I used for this card.

First up --- the Fairy Tale Magic stamp & thin cut bundle.

Ever since this stamp set was released, I've wanted to stamp those mushrooms! Well, today was FINALLY the day!! Yay!

Next up --- my FAVORITE Birthday stamp set!! This one is called "Birthday Greetings". This stamp can be found in the ONLINE ONLY section of your CTMH Consultant's website! This stamp set I use, over & over, and OVER again!

I used our Princess Gold Embossing powder. to emboss the sentiment AND the mushroom border. And yes...I did fussy cut that border ;) I really enjoy fussy cutting, and when you have a FABULOUS scissors, like CTMH carries, our Micro-tip scissors are the BEST around to do your fussy cutting!!

I decided to also turn this into a Shaker card for some added fun!! I used our Loose Gold Sequins, and tried to pull out most of the clear sequins in that mix, with just a sprinkling of gold sequins.
The "Birthday Hello" and single mushroom, were heat embossed on the shaker part of the card, prior to filling the shaker with sequins.

To color in the mushrooms, I used our Tri-Blend alcohol markers. I LOVE how these markers blend "effortlessly" together!
