CTMH--- July SOTM Blog Hop- Happy Forever

Welcome to the Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for July 2010!

All artwork on the hop will feature July's Stamp of the Month- Happy Forever a set of 9 stamps! If you have come here from Sarita's blog you are on the right path!

This month we have 70 CTMH Consultants sharing their SOTM creations, and other great CTMH artwork. Hopping along is fun and simple to do - just click the link at the end of each blogger's post to move to the next one!

This month I have a couple layouts to share :)
This first one was created with the Splendor paper pack. I added the whimsical little hedgehog as an accent to my page. I stamped him in Chocolate ink and sponged on chalk for his body and face. I then cut him out and added color and bling to the little butterfly on his nose.

Supplies:
Splendor Lv 2
Happy Forever SOTM
Circle Around chipboard
Friendship Alpha Small
Chocolate Alpha Large
Autumn Brads
Just Blooms- Spring Blossoms
Moonstruck, Topiary, Goldrush, Chocolate ink
Tulip Marker
Bling
Chalk

For this next layout, I also used the little hedgehog as an accent to my page. He matches the little hedgehog on her shirt so I thought it was perfect :) I stamped him in cocoa ink this time and used a sponge dauber to apply chocolate and cocoa ink to his hair and body. I then stamped the balloons again on 3 different pieces of patterned paper and cut them out, paper piecing them to the original stamped image. I cut the image and placed it on my layout.
This layout features non-CTMH papers so here is the hedgehog up close :)

Supplies:
Happy Forever
Cocoa, Chocolate ink
Friendship Alpha lg

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....
