Oh, Mojo Monday's...how I have missed you! It's been a couple of months since I have participated, and I truly have missed creating from the sketches created by Julee Tilman of Verve and her design team at mojomonday.blogspot.com. I really connected with this sketch and couldn't wait to start creating with Close To My Heart's Wonderland paper pack - perfect for this time of year, although we haven't had much of a winter so far. I used a MS punch edge called Drippy Goo to mimic snow (so fun).
Here is a close up of the stamping I did on the label. I love the clear overlay I used over the snowflake shape I cut using Close To My Heart's Cricut cartridge, Art Philosophy.
Below is the sketch created by Julee. Her sketches make it so easy to put a card together!

I saw a card/technique by Nichole Healy and decided to give it a try using Close To My Heart stamps. I have seen a similar card by another CTMH consultant, so it was nice to see that others were inspired by Nichole as well. I used the Glory to God stamp set to create this holiday card and was quite pleased with the results. I started off by sponging Bamboo ink around all the edges, bringing it towards the center of each layer w/o inking it so it got lighter towards the center. I then sponged Desert Sand ink around the edges only. Next I stamped a variety of word stamps, including the verse Luke 2:14 that comes with the stamp set. I did those in 3rd generation Desert Sand. The wise men & baby Jesus were done in black. I also did some of the stars in 3rd generation Desert Sand ink too, and kept the one in the center 1st generation to stand out. I used a tiny sparkle on the middle star as well, so it would shine brighter than the others. The saying Celebrate the Season was stamped in black also. I hope this card has inspired you to try this technique as well. It's a great way to Celebrate the Season.*all products Close To My Heart.

This is my first Close To My Heart H2H Challenge! This is a blog created and sponsored by Close To My Heart Independent Consultants. Click here to see the blog/challenge. I hope you visit the blog often to check out all the challenges and beautiful artwork/techniques that my fellow consultants post. Anyone is able to participate, so hopefully you will participate as well!I used the Backdrop-Charmed stamp set and embossed the Halloween image with black embossing powder and brayered the color on top, using Honey and Sunset ink. I cut out the number 31 on the Cricut and used the silver Glitter Glue over the numbers and popped them up using foam tape. All of this was then layered onto a variety of patterned cardstock from the Mischief Level 2 Paper Pack, including the zip strip that is attached to the top of the patterned cardstock.
*All products are Close To My Heart.
