It's All About the Hearts

There's a new gang hangin' at Close to My Heart. Punny Pals is all about creating smiles.
Smiles with the fun critters and smiles for Operation Smile with a donation of $7.00
with each purchase of the Punny Pals stamp set. Lots more smiles coming in October!

It just seemed right to make some Punny Pal cards with the colors
Heart 2 Heart. For my Color My Heart colors I used Almond
B&T from Basics Fundamentals, Toffee CS, Nutmeg ink, and the
yellows in the Whimsy Fundamentals. I colored the critters with
Mad About Markers Clay, Mahogany, Yellow. and the blender marker.
CTMH Supplies:
Fundamentals: Whimsy, Basics

It's All About the Hearts

Using a coordinating color in the negative space behind a cut out 
image gives dimension and texture to your project. Heart 2 Heart
 is having a negative space challenge challenge this month. 
Come join in the fun!
I used the sketch below from Atlantic Hearts to make the circle
my negative space to accent the sentiment and flowers.
Use this sketch to create your project to share at Atlantic Hearts.
PS. It only seemed appropriate to use the Happy Heart stamp set.
