Live, Laugh, Love - CTMH May Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

Welcome to our monthly Stamp of the Month (SOTM) Blog Hop!!!

If you have come here from Shelia's Blog, you are on the right track!!

This month, we will be featuring the EXCLUSIVE May SOTM stamp set called "Live, Laugh, Love".

This blog hop is a great big circle, so you can START HERE & work your way around to the many consultants on this “hop”! If you get lost along the way, you’ll find a complete list of PARTICIPATING CONSULTANTS by clicking HERE…

This month we have 26 Close To My Heart Consultants that will be sharing items using this month’s stamp set.  So, sit back & enjoy your tour as you click on the link at the end of each post to see what EVERY consultant has created.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here is this months EXCLUSIVE stamp set....

These block, flowery letters are all the rage, and are so fun to create with!  Today, I'll be sharing 1 of the 3 cards I created with this stamp set.  

Let's take a look.... 

This fun, card sketch, came from our How-To-Book - Make It From Your Heart, volume 1!  I hadn't used this sketch book in a while, and challenged myself to pull a pattern from this book. 

If you take a close look, you may notice I used TWO different paper packs for this card. 

I used the BRAND NEW "Little Dreamer" paper pack, as well as the EXCLUSIVE paper pack available during May - "Live Beautifully" (the small polka dots).  Since May 1st is the DEBUT of our Newest, Seasonal Expression 2 Idea Book - neither of the paper packs may be familiar to you...so let's take a LOOK!

X7219B Little Dreamer Paper packet

CC1212B - Live Beautifully paper pack
CC1212C - Live Beautifully stamp set

The word "Love" was heat embossed with white embossing powder....

...while the flowers & leaves, were heat embossed by using the whisper pigment ink pad & clear embossing powder.  

I wanted a "pink" (smoothie) colored string for the left side of my card, and wasn't quite sure how to do that...since we only had white. 

Then I remembered...ANYTHING white can be colored to whatever you need it to be!  So...I cut off a piece of White Twine & "pulled" it through my Smoothie ink pad to give it some color.  Yay!!  A Smoothie colored accent! :)

I also did something I haven't done in a LONG time...and that was to use my Stitch Guide & stitched some white twine around the card edge! :)  FUN...and it adds a little bit of "extra" to the card. ;) 

Here is the list of products I used for the card above...
