CTMH--Stamp of the Month - Baroque Borders - Artiste in August

Welcome to the DOUBLE BLOG HOP!!!

Today is the FIRST day of the Artiste in August Blog Hop!! You should be arriving from Amy's Blog. Your next stop will be PAMELA'S BLOG.

It is also the Stamp of the Month blog hop time! The stamp of the month for August is Baroque Borders. If you have come here from Melinda's blog you are on the right path. Your next stop will be SUSAN'S BLOG.

Today I have created the Magazine File card holder found on page 47 in the Artiste handbook (assembly instructions are on page 18). The handbook says to cut the images at 6", so that's what I did. I cut the bottom box portion in Sorbet cardstock. Before cutting the outer part, I stamped the Smoothie Cardstock with the Baroque Border stamp set. I added some sparkles for some bling, and Color Ready Seam Binding for an accent.

This box will hold several cards, and even envelopes too!

This will be a project for my All You Can Create Card Class in August- I know the ladies will be super excited about this one :)

CTMH- Washi Tape Card

Do you WASHI??? Washi Tape is one of the new and super trendy products being used. I'm not afraid to jump on the bandwagon :) CTMH now has a Slate Polka-Dot Washi Tape (and I HOPE there are lots more to come!!!) I also have picked up a couple others at Michaels recently. This weeks Color My Heart Color Dare is JUNIPER. I decided to use Juniper as the accent color for my card today. I used the black banner stamp set from Artiste Kudos , CTMH's Slate Washi Tape , CTMH's Silver Shimmer Trim and a black arrow washi tape. The sentiment is from Artiste Birthday , stamped in Juniper, then popped on foam tape. A simple card like this, called for some dressing up of the inside too. I stamped Happy Birthday from Perfect Fit Birthday and added some Slate Washi Tape to the bottom. Head over to Color My Heart to check out the other color dare entries :)

CTMH-- September Stamp of the Month- Fall Favori

Welcome to the Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for September 2012, featuring Fall Favorites All artwork on the hop will feature Fall Favorites! This is a set of 11 stamps and it's really making me want FALL---- NOW!!! How cute is this set!? If you have come here from Susan's Blog y ou are on the right path. For my card today, I used the new Clementine paper pack, which is so versatile! I cut the tag from Art Philosophy and stamped Fall Favorites in Brown Staz-on ink, then colored the pumpkin and leaves with my new markers. I found that they don't blend and shade terribly well on Kraft cardstock- but the color showed up. I added some of my favorite Burlap Ribbon to the card :) Do you think I like pumpkin pie??? Just a little bit ;) The September Stamp of the Month- Fall Favorites is available September 1-30th. With any $50 purchase, this set is yours for $5....
