Color Dare #364

 Meets Sketch #339

Close To My Heart's paper pack "Boutique" brings out my colors from the color pallet at Color My Heart. I used the colors Glacier, Saffron, and Peacock for my card. I've been working on Nativity cards for Christmas and liked these colors for a card. I also like the sketch at Atlantic Hearts for my pattern. Thanks Color My Heart and Atlantic Hearts for adding to my Christmas Nativity cards.

It's Mixed Font Time

At Heart 2 Heart

Close To My Heart has wonderful sentiments 

with mixed fonts. One of my favorite stamp 

sets is Some Kind of Wonderful. 

YOU'RE SOME KIND OF is all printed caps 

and the Wonderful is done in a beautiful script. 

The combination is very appealing

Now, it's your turn to share your favorite 

mixed font project with us at Heart 2 Heart.

The Random Acts of Cardness Stamp of the

 Month makes a great Collection of assorted cards.

Send these cards randomly to a special person.

 To make the leaves I used the re-inkers on 

baby wipes technique: Use re-inker 

drops on a baby wipe to make a unique 

ink pad. Ink your stamp into the different 

colors on the baby wipe. Stamp image on 

white Daisy and cut out to add to your project.
