Tuesday Morning Sketches sponsor is Close To My Heart!

Isn't it cool that Tuesday Morning Sketches has a sponsor from Close to My Heart!   I would think so...and what does that mean?  Well, you need to get an awesome card made before Sunday night so you will have a chance to win!  And guess what else?

The sketch is super duper easy..i bet a 15 minute card tops, especially if you use a sentiment..i am just saying...

So let me show you what i made..took me longer than 15 minutes because of the paper piecing and sewing the hearts down to make them 3-D.  But not longer than 30 minutes..  I have used the mini stamp called, Dotted Love.
Let me say that Patti Rowe is our CTMH consultant sponsoring this challenge.  She is so very generous..she sent us stamps to use and some pretty paper for the background of my card and is from the Laughing Lola collection.   Those of you that know CTMH paper know that it is double sided too!  The turquoise is also some paper she sent.  The embellishments under the circle are called Durable Artisan Studs.  The gold metallic and pink paper are from my stash.

Here is the super duper easy sketch to use this week at Tuesday Morning Sketches:

Copics used on the lettering:
BG11, 13
Stickles/diamond
