Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop and HAPPY NEW YEAR!! We will be featuring January’s SOTM, which is Happy Valentine’s Day, a set of 7 stamps. If you have come here from Allisa’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.
This month we have almost 50 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!
I love the elegance of this set and can see it in many different projects. I wanted to show a few things you could do. This stamp was perfect for random stamping. I stamped a tag for a future layout. I am in love with this word, smitten! To achieve this look I layered my stamping in first and second generation stamping.
Here are a couple others that will be used in future projects. You’ll have to bookmark my site or pin it and be sure to come back and see what future projects I create with these.
Here I wanted a grunge look. So, I used the stipple brush to create a smudged background. Then I stamped in black and fill it in with 1st and 2nd generation stamping in Cranberry on Cranberry cardstock. It gives it a totally different look.
Here I colored the image with our alcohol markers and then stamped the sentiment. After I stamped it with black pigment ink, I traced over the words too to make it pop.
I hope you are inspired and excited to see what everyone has made with this beautiful set.  Keep hopping over to Jill’s Blog.
