May Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

Hi and welcome to the CTMH Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for May.  You may have found your way here from Shirley's Blog.

This month we have a set of ten stamps that I love called Pinwheel.  I have created a few cards to share.  The first is a circle card using the Claire paper pack, inks in Outdoor Denim and Sunset, and embellished with Baker's twine and Epoxy Bubbles.

I also created a set of two easel cards.  I used several colors of cardstock and inks and each is embellished with Baker's twine and Epoxy Bubbles.

January Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

Welcome to the Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month Blog Hop.  You may have found your way here from Haley's Blog.  January's SOTM is Happy Valentine's.  I have a circle card to share using this beautiful stamp set and the Clemitine Paper Pack. 

The flower was stamped with Sobet ink on Sorbet cardsstock.  I cut a mat for the heart and then added glitz around the edge.  The mat makes getting a consistent edge of glitz easy.
