CTMH-- July Stamp of the Month Blog Hop- Live Out Loud!

Welcome to the Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for July  2012, featuring Live out Loud!


 
All artwork on the hop will feature Live out Loud!  This is a set of 8 stamps, featuring wonderful sentiments!  It is a must have :)  If you have come here from Beth's blog you are on the right path.

How fun is this set of stamps!  "Imagine the Possibilities"!!!


Today I have taken inspiration from a couple different cards that I've seen lately.  I love the black and white with pop of color that I found in Wendy's card on Pinterest.  I saw another consultant sponge color on little strips of our Color Ready Seam Binding Ribbon on Pinterest as well. 

For my card- I combined both of those- I used a White Daisy card base, stamped my sentiment "Imagine the possibilities" in black.  I used some markers to color in a couple of the letters. 
I then used a sponge dauber to color strips of the Color Ready Seam Binding in Tulip, Sorbet, Creme Brule, Pear, Lagoon, Pacifica and Gypsy.  I cut the tails of my ribbons to a pennant and placed them under a strip of black cardstock. 
Very simple and easy- yet so fun!  







The July Stamp of the Month- Live Out Loud is available July 1-31.  With any $50 purchase, this set is yours for $5.  

Don't forget July's Perfect Pairings special!  Spend $75 on my website during the month and you'll get an added bonus to your order (based on the date you place your order).  Be sure to check out all the details HERE!  And then SHOP HERE!

CTMH- Everything ABC's Blog Hop- E is for Easter

Welcome to the Everything ABC's Blog Hop! For this hop we will be featuring the letter E. This may be the name of a paper, a stamp set or an embellishment. Whatever the crafter has chosen as their E element will be featured in their post. If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start at the beginning at Amber's blog ~ Scrapper's Therapy  If you came from Shelly ~ Just One Piece then you're on the right track! E is for EASTER You may recall a few months ago, I posted a couple layouts from the baby album I am making for my niece.... well she's now 3 months old and I only finished through 4 months!  I have some work to do..... Today I created an Easter Layout using THIS layout as my inspiration.  The Chantilly paper pack is perfectly girly and springy!  I cut two strips of the green pattern, then sliced it up to make it look like grass.  Using Art Philosophy, I cut out a bunch of different eggs in 1 1/2", 1 3/4" and ...

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 :)
