Warmest Wishes

I thought I would share this adorable Flamingo Christmas card with you which features Deck The Palms paper suite and stamp set


 It is a fun easel card and uses the thin 3D foam tape to give the layers dimension and I used tri-blend alcohol markers to color the images - check out my Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/SaraBatkinCTMHLegaciesOfLove/videos/604372017511109/  for a step by step video on how to create this cute card.

Cherry blossom beauty

 I just finished creating this and I am so excited with it , I couldn’t wait to share it ❤️

Cherry blossoms stamp set C1889 stamped using Intense Black exclusive ink as it doesn’t bleed when it gets wet so is perfect for using with markers, paints or pencils.

I colored the image using our fabulous CTMH watercolor paints Z3132 along with the medium round water brush Z3225 .

Thin cut Fancy Borders Z3682 created the pretty scallops and I used 3D foam tape behind the stitched bracket Z3631 for the sentiment 

I hope you love this as much as I do as I am not a painter so I was thrilled to get such a pretty result on the first attempt 😃

You’ll find all of the items at sarabatkin.ctmh.Com 😘

You Mocha Me Smile

 This card is inspired by my love of coffee ...... and when you add cute shimmery flower sequins and a pretty paper suite and the new hot new slimline cards .... you have a perfect recipe for a cute card.

Triblend markers make coloring the images effortless and give a great saturation of color even when it’s a pale pink. 

Hope you love this as much as I do x

Love Sara x
