Thank You Card Using CTMH Kaleidoscope Paper with Cricut Artbooking and Cricut Artiste Cartridges

Hello friends. I am celebrating my 600 Followers and 3 years with Close To My Heart; and would love for all of you to participate in my Blog Celebration.  Click here for the blog post. Join my followers on Google Friend Connect, link your blog with Mr. Linky and leave a comment.  No blog, no problem.  Leave me a comment letting me know you don't have a blog.  I will add you to my list.  I am giving away at least 25 wonderful prizes; maybe more; depending on entries. Anyone who wins outside US will qualify for digi stamps from my wonderful sponsors; as I am not allowed to send CTMH products outside the US.

I created a Thank you card using my new CTMH Kaleidoscope Paper with my Cricut Artbooking and Cricut Artiste Cartridges.  It is so much fun trying to create new combinations with all of the five CTMH Cricut Cartridges.  I love the owl and couldn't wait to use it with this new paper.  The colors are much prettier in person.  Purple and Pink are hard colors for me to photograph.  The ink on both sentiments is Gypsy (purple); and the ribbon is dark purple. Purple doesn't photograph well for me.  It always looks blue.
