Highlight the Details - CTMH Technique Blog Hop

Thank you for joining us this week as we use Close To My Heart products to "Highlight the Details". Participating Consultants can interpre the theme as they see fit so be sure to make your way around the circle to see what they have to showcase.

If you are coming from Tamara's Blog, you are on the right track. You can find a complete list of participants at the bottom of this post.

I decided to "highlight" the word on the sentiment, by using the BACK of a stamp image - which created a solid "block", and the Peep (which I love), by placing the stitched heart behind it.

The "Bunny Trail" stamp set was used.

To create the highlighed image, I placed the "Know that I care" sentiment backwards on a block. That created a solid surface that I then inked.

With various techniques, even in how items are highlighted on your card, you can draw attention to different elements of your card.

Now, head on over to Catherine's Blog to see what she has to share with you!

We appreciate you stopping by and always enjoy reading your comments. Happy hoppin'!

Welcome to our Blog Hop where today we are featuring BRAND NEW PRODUCT from our NEW Idea Book which debuted on January 1, 2019! If you haven't gotten your hands on this beauty, do so ASAP!

The front cover itself is worth it as our Founder and CEO, Jeanette Lynton, is the focus as we celebrate 35 years of Close To My Heart! Isn't that exciting?! It's hard to believe I've been part of that journey for 20+ years!

I had fun making this Easter card and absolutely love this adorable stamp set, "Egg-stra Special". 

The sentiments are adorable, as are the images, and the fact you can get it with the coordinating Thin Cut images...that makes it perfect, and a must-have! 

I used the Something Fierce paper packet, coordinating cardstock and inks. 

A little distressing with Sponge Daubers, White Ribbon, and Silver Glitter Gems were perfect for finishing up. 

Thank you for much for stopping by today. Be sure to continue to make your way around the Hop to enjoy the other wonderful creations made with new product. I guarantee you will want to have a paper and pen ready because you will need to make a wish list!
