Oh boy....I am so excited about this Holiday Expression Idea Book ...there are so many beautiful new products just for the holidays.  

There are more that 20 of us Close to My Heart consultants that are taking part in this hop show so off the new products.  So grab some coffee and hop along.  If you came here from Michele Rowley's Blog you are on the right track.

Here is what I made:

I used the new Flower Market Cricut Cartridge for this card.  I cut the pine cones from our Kraft paper and the sponged the top layer with Chocolate Ink. I embossed the Kraft background piece with the new Wood Slats embossing folder and inked it with Chocolate Ink. I used the Red Enamel Gems as my berries and the sentiment is from one of the stamp sets that comes with the Flower Market Bundle.

On this card I used the Surfin' Santa Stamp Set.  I colored the images with our ShinHan Markers.  I fussy cut out Santa and stamped the boards as my background.  I love this stamp set....Santa is so cute!!

Warm Wishes

Had some time to play with on of the new holiday stamps.  I saw this one and knew I had to have it.   It is called Surfin' Santa.  I had stamped, colored and cut out the images and was trying to decide how to use them in a card when I saw this great gate fold peek-a-boo card, which was perfect.  Here is my card:

I used the City Sidewalks paper pack and the Warm Wishes is from the zip strip. I used my ShinHan markers to color my images.
