In The New Year

Welcome to the New Year and lot's of "New" to talk about. Besides the New Year, 

there is a New Seasonal Expressions, with lots of New CTMH products, 

There is also a New challenge at Heart 2 Heart with  a 

New guest designer... me.

with coordinating Thin Cuts. Be sure to visit Heart 2 Heart for all the

On the Tree at Christmas

Nothing decorates a tree like silver & Gold. Two Silver & Gold Challenges

 inspired these Christmas tree ornaments. Heart 2 Heart and

  Color My Heart teamed up with a Silver & Gold Challenge.

Using the Silver & Gold paper pack I made 2 ornaments. One is a star

shaped cookie cutter with a winter scene in the center. The other is the

left over tag that was cut to make the center of the star. 

So grab your silver & gold and come play at Heart 2 Heart and Color My Heart.

These are month long challenges and Color My Heart is offering Free prizes.

Join the Christmas fun!

Anything Goes at Heart 2 Heart

Having Fun With Vellum

Anything Goes at the last challenge of the month at Heart 2 Heart.

So....I've been having fun with vellum paper on my cards.

To make these vellum flowers emboss the image with white embossing powder

on vellum paper. Sponge your ink color on the back of the embossed image.

Cut them out and attach to your card with a spot of bonding memory glue.

Don't miss out on the fun each week at Heart 2 Heart.
