September Stamp of the Month "Limited Edition" Blog Hop:

Pin It Welcome to the Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!  If you are new to the hop, here is how it works:  About 60 fellow Close to My Heart consultants all make a piece of art (scrapbook page, card, specialty item, etc) using the Stamp of the Month.  They all include links to eachother's blogs so that anyone can begin on any blog and hop from blog to blog which eventually becomes a big circle. Easy right?!  It is a great way to view many different ideas using one stamp set which is available only that particular month, so don't miss out!  Now let's get started.  You can start here or if you've come here from Paige Dolecki's blog then you are on the right track. 

Here is my card:

Recipe
Sept. Stamp of the Month: Limited Edition
Backdrop-Charmed Stamp Set (saying)
Mischief Paper Packet
Black Cardstock
Black Waxy Flax
Black Ink Pad
Clear Sparkles
Bling Assortment
Foam Tape
Glue Dots

All supplies can be ordered Here!

Notes:

• The tag from the Stamp of the Month was stamped in black onto a piece of Sunset B&T Duos from the Mischief Paper Packet. I used Foam Tape to pop it up on the card.
• The Bling Button was adhered to the card using Glue Dots
• The Bling Pins are stuck through the Foam Tape under the tag. It's a great way to keep the pins in place!

Crazy Campers

Pin It

Sorry I've been a little MIA lately, but this is the crazy crew I've been hanging out with at our annual campout.  We went to Ft. Flagler on the Washington State peninsula and had a great time.  Camping isn't my favorite thing, but I love seeing my family happy and hanging out with some great friends.  As you can see, they are a lot of fun!  Do you like to camp?  If so, what is your favorite meal?  We always like to try new things!

Salutation Seals with August Stamp of the Month: Wicked

Pin It

Does the border on the center strip look familiar? It's from the Stamp of the Month!  It is a beautiful border that works well on just about any card!  I added the Roxie (striped) paper along with my new favorite stamp set: Salutation Seals.  I love how the different "seals" fit perfectly in both our 1 1/4" Round and 2" Scallop Punches!  Don't forget that if you order the Stamp of the Month this month then you also get the bonus Extra Extra free!
