®®September is NATIONAL STAMPING MONTH!!

September is National Stamping Month, and this year Close To My Heart has something to help every kind of papercrafter say a big “hello” to life!

These stamp sets also coordinate with shapes from the new Cricut® Artistry collection to help expand your artwork options even further.

Let’s take a look at EACH of these stamp sets individually….

Scrapbooking

Pocket Scrapbooking

Cardmaking

Each stamp set is designed to fit with a specific type of papercrafting, whether that’s traditional scrapbooking, cardmaking, or pocket scrapbooking. However, all the stamp sets coordinate with each other and can be used together to create dynamic artwork.

Remember, these stamp sets are available for one month only, so get your orders in for one stamp set—or all three—before these gorgeous stamps disappear! Make certain to follow Close To My Heart’s blog, Instagram, and Facebook page for artwork inspiration featuring these lively stamp sets all month long. You can post your own artwork to your social media channels using the hashtag #ctmhHelloLife.

Available only during the month of September, these exclusive C-size My Acrylix^®Hello, Life! stamp sets can be purchased for $13.95 USD each! Or, for an even better deal, you can purchase all three for only $34.95 USD—a savings of $6.90 USD!

Today I chose to share I card I created with the EXCLUSIVE Hostess Stamp set

“Sing Glory”…

A Christmas Stamp set you say???  YES J–a Christmas Stamp set!!!

I know there are many of you that are already thinking about Christmas of 2015…and even if you aren't thinking about it..... I don’t want YOU to miss out on this BEAUTIFUL stamp set!!!

2. Have a BOOK PARTY of $150 sales or more
3. Order $150+ in products  by yourself & be your OWN Hostess J

Ok…so let’s take a peek at the card I created using this beautiful Stamp set.

I was inspired by a card I recently received from a swap I was in…the card pattern was called a “wiper card”.  Take a peek at the interactive part of this card!

Yes – a “wiper” pops out of the top of the card, to give this card a little “pop”! I cut the square bracket from our Art Philosophy cartridge (cut at 1 1/2” & 1 3/4”) 

 

This wiper card was quite easy to create…I found the instructions at splitcoaststampers.com. 

I haven’t created much with our twill ribbon yet, and was excited when I thought to pair it with the white shimmer trim!! 

If you know our shimmer trim, you’ll know that it’s 3/8” wide…so I cut it in half prior to applying to the middle of the twill ribbon.   

Here is a list of products, in case you’d like to create a similar card.

X7188B Snowhaven Paper Pack

Z2448 ShinHan marker – Carmine (to color sparkles)
