December CTMH Spotlight Blog Hop is Featuring My Stickease

Welcome to the Close to My Heart December Spotlight Blog Hop!  If you have found yourself here from Terry Metzger's Blog then you are in the right place.  This month we are spotlighting our wonderful Close to My Heart My Stickease!   My Stickease is an incredible product.  They match the paper pack and actually are made with Close to My Heart Cardstock.
I just love Christmas but am ready for a change.  I needed some birthday cards, so I decided to use the Roxie My Stickease.  I really needed to work on some artwork.  I have been taking care of my husband after is surgery for a complete knee replacement and I needed a creative outlet.  I have not had a chance to participate in Mojo Monday and a fellow CTMH Consultant, Debbie Carriere, designed this week’s challenge.  Here is the card pattern:

I really love the large heart from the Roxie My Stickease and wanted to showcase it in a very special card.  Here is my card.

And here is another view of my card.

The main image is the large heart “sticker” from the Roxie My Stickease.  Isn’t it a magnificent image?  I also used the Roxie Level 2 Paper Pack.  I applied the Stardust Glitter Gel to the flourishes on the stickease for a little extra interest.  There are bitty sparkles on the heart and I used Mocha Opaques beneath the image.  All of the edges are inked, even the My Stickease.  Close to My Heart’s My Stickease is made from Cardstock, so the images are sturdy enough to even be popped up from the card, like I did with this card.
