Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!
We will be featuring April's Stamp of the Month (SOTM), which is called “My Sunshine”, a set of 8 stamps.
Take a look at this ADORABLE set!!
If you have come here from Michelle’s Blog, you are on the right path! The blog hop is a great big circle, so you can start here and work your way all around. If you get lost along the way, you’ll find the complete list of participating consultants here HERE…
This month we have 60 Close To My Heart Consultants sharing their creations using this month's stamp set!! So, sit back and enjoy your tour as you click on the link at the end of the post to see what EACH Consultant has created!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I created my card by using Close To My Heart’s FABULOUS How-to book called Make It From Your Heart! This card uses pattern # 21.
The 2nd order of business (after choosing my card design)...I made SURE I had my Artiste Cricut cartridge (LOVE this cartridge!!!) in my machine!
I cut out the balloon AND the two different sized clouds!!! (both images on page 70 of booklet) I LOVE when the stamp set I'm working with is Cricut compatible! J
By adding some stardust glitz glitter to the balloon, and using the 3D foam tape to give it some “pop”, it created dimension and feeling to my card. J
I wanted to use the circle of words in this set, (I LOVE this group of words!) but I wasn’t sure how….UNTIL I decided to create a background with it! It turned out a LOT better than I was expecting! Yay!!!
Also, take notice of the great wording “Have a nice day!”…this is just a sneak peek to what’s coming next month, in the EXCLUSIVE MAY Stamp of the Month stamp set. (wink, wink)
Did you GUESS what designer paper pack I used on this card?? I only used one strip of designer paper, while the rest is cardstock...
But, if you said CHANTILLY - than you were correct! A “pink, flowery” paper pack CAN be used for MANY different occasions AND creations! J
Products Used on this card:
Ink colors: Sunset, Outdoor Denim, Champagne, Buttercup
Be sure to visit ALL the Consultants at their Blogs to get some great crafting ideas and other fun ideas!
Remember, the April SOTM is only available until April 30th!!! J

Blessings to you for a WONDERFUL day!!!

ReplyDeleteOk where to begin? I so love your take on this stamp set...first love the colors you choose....love how you used the center for the sun as a stamp for a background on the cardstock...love how you used that ribbon (which sends my virago spinning)cause it didn't make my spin-I think covering some of it up helped..love the distressed edges...and how you mixed papers!!!! beautiful
ReplyDeleteGreat idea using the circle stamp for a background...great color choice too!
