If you have arrived from Debi's blog you are right on track.

May is FILLED with Fabulous specials here at Close To My Heart!!  Because there is SO MUCH goodness ;)....I wanted to share a card I created using this Month's Stamp of the Month (SOTM) Live, Laugh, Love stamp set.  

Take a look!  

I adore this month's stamp set....but I was running short on time, and wanted to make a "quick" card (that means not having to color in those precious little flowers inside these letters). WATERCOLOR PAINTS to the rescue! :)  

I colored a background, dried it with my craft heater, and then used Memento black ink to stamp the "Love" letters. 

Have you noticed what NEW paper collection I used?  If you haven't checked out the NEW ITEMS that arrived on May 1st at CTMH - you'll want to check in with your CTMH consultant OR  CLICK HERE to see the brand new Seasonal Expression 2 Idea Book! :) 

Look at the BEAUTIFUL colors of the Little Dreamer paper collection....and there are so many coordinating items to go with this set! 

I knew the card needed a bit more embellishing - and that's when I decided to stamp the flower included in this stamp set onto Blossom cardstock, and the leaves were stamped on Sea Glass.  I stamped them with Whisper ink & then cut them out with my handy, dandy Micro-top scissors. 

  

The Black dots - from our White & Black enamel dots collection & some White Twine, were just what was needed for the finishing touch! :) 

Here's a picture of the ENTIRE stamp set....and don't forget - this stamp set is ONLY AVAILABLE in MAY 2017!!!  

You can purchase this "Live, Laugh, Love" stamp set for the $17.95 retail price OR pay ONLY $5 when you place a $50 order with your CTMH consultant!! 

 I LOVE Bargains!!! Woot - woot!! :) :) 

  

That's all for today....thanks for stopping by, and I hope you were inspired to go CREATE something on your own! :)
