Just for FUN Blog Hop

Welcome to the Close To My Heart Just for FUN! Blog Hop. This month there are about 20 bloggers sharing projects they created with CTMH Fundamentals. If blog hopping is new to you, we try to keep it easy: just keep clicking on the link to the next blog (typically near the bottom of the post) to visit the next stop. Our blog hop is circular so visiting the next blog will take you back to where you started.

You should have arrived here from ***Michele Rowley's Evergreen Memories***. If you get lost along the way, Melinda Everitt keeps a list of participants on her blog at If You Bling It.

I continue to have fun creating cards with cuts from the Flower Market cartridge; if you visit my blog regularly, you probably have seen my previous projects inspired by the Mini Cricut® Flowers post at Make It From Your Heart—the Close To My Heart Corporate Blog. For this card I used papers from three different Fundamental Paper Packets.

As I did when creating the Christmas card I shared last week, I started to shape the flowers using a the rounded end of one of the Cricut® Tools with the embossing mat and then used the smaller ball of the tool that is included in the Piercing & Embossing Tool Kit. Starting with a larger ball/less fine tool reduces the chance of ripping the papers.
