My wonderful niece Ellie turns 14 on Thursday, January 3rd and I made her a special card. I followed the Try Stampin' on Tuesday sketch and used some new and old Close To My Heart products and a Cuttlebug folder. After the Cotton Candy CS was embossed it was distressed with a sanding block from the CTMH Sanding Kit. I used the Artiste cartridge to cut the numbers from the new Glitter paper available February 1st or in the December--January Who's Your Valentine special promotion available now. The paper is from Close To My Heart Sweetheart paper packet (retired). I also used the Artiste cartridge to cut the Accent 4 frame from page 60 at 3". The edges of the frame were lightly distressed with Slate ink and a Round Sponge. 3D Foam Tape was used to raise the frame up from the rest of the card. The silver stripe on the bottom is Silver Shimmer Trim which is backed with adhesive to make it really easy to apply.
The sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday:
Ellie likes to play in my craft room when she comes to visit and I think she will like this card.
Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful new year filled with fun and creativity!
