Marvy Le Plume Alcohol Markers

IMG_5096
Hello Friends. This week Penny Black’s blog  is featuring thank you cards created with Christmas stamps. I find myself using certain Christmas stamps all year & the stamps on this card are no exception.
 Have you heard of the new Le Plume alcohol markers?? They are quite a bargain for $2.99 & they blend beautifully. I used them on my hedgehog. If you want to add more colors to your stash or just getting started I would encourage you to try them.

It’s not often I use acetate but, I need to get it out more because I love the look acetate gives your card. The SRM sticker sentiment was prefect for the inside because the sentiments are nice and long.  After completing my card I decided to add the super sweet hedgehog. Which one do you like better??

The inside I used a Spellbinder die that I am always reaching for.  To create the background I embossed with clear powder onto white card stock with this stamp, distressed and stamped again but, with distress ink this time. Before I forget this is the 6×6 paper pack I used on the butterflies and the inside trip. Let me know if you have more information. I was in my kitchen for 12 hours straight and am pretty whipped. Thanks for taking the time to stop by. Hugs, Kathy

    Fun composition that had me really intrigued. Definitely prefer Hedgie one – it’s the way he’s holding that flower
    & the positioning that makes it so eye catching. Hope you recover from the marathon cook/entertaining.
