August Stamp of the Month Blog Hop - Framed

Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!  We will be featuring August's SOTM "Framed", which is a set of 12 stamps.  If you have come here from ANGELA'S BLOG, you are on the right path! The blog hop is a great big circle, so you can start here and work your way all around.  If you get lost along the way, you’ll find the complete list of participating consultants on Melinda’s Blog:  http://ifyoublingit.blogspot.com/p/stamp-of-month-blog-hop-list.html.




This month we have over 30 Close To My Heart Consultants sharing their creations using this month's SOTM and other great CTMH products on their blogs. This is simple to do - just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one! Here we go!

This is the card I made for my nephew's birthday.  He was born on the 4th of July and is serving in the Army stationed in Washington State.  I am so proud of him!   I used our Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge to make the 5 x 7 card on page 20.  I made a card liner for the inside of the card and traced some of the words lightly with pencil onto it. This gave me an outline to back each word with a different color of card stock, washi tape, some glitter paper or shimmer trim.  Below is what the card liner looks like before I adhered it to the inside of the card. I stamped one of the frames from the STOM set with Holiday Red ink and trimmed out and then used the sentiment "happy birthday" stamped in black for the inside of the frame.


Now "Hop" on over to MICHELLE'S BLOG to see her work! Be sure to visit all the Consultants at their Blogs to get some great crafting ideas and other fun ideas! Remember, the SOTM is only available until !  Contact your CTMH Consultant (or click here) to see how you can get this stamp set at a discount!
