February Stamp of The Month Blog Hop!

Welcome to the CTMH Stamp of the Month Blog Hop! You may have come here from Carol Horton's blog.

This Month's set is "Piece of Cake". It is a fun set of 10 stamps. I can't seem to put it down.

My first card uses the Caboodle Level 2 Paper Pack, Sorbet Ric Rac and mini brads in black. The image is stamped in black archival ink and colored with watercolor pencils and a blending pen. The little flowers (in the corner and on the top of the lower cake layer) are cut out from other cake images in the set.





My second card uses the More to Adore Level 2 Paper Pack and Stickeze, Craft Buttons, Waxy Flax, and Colonial White Ribbon. The image is stamped in Chocolate ink and colored with watercolor pencils and a blending pen.





My third card is the super quick and easy design. I picked three colors (Olive, Sorbet and Twilight), stamped the ink color onto the coordinating cardstock. I softened the lines of the images using a blender pen and a little ink. Add a stamped phrase and a little embelishment and that is one easy and adorable card!



The next stop for the Blog Hop is Michelle Loncar's Blog. Have Fun!
