S2007 - For My Beautiful Friend CTMH Australasian Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

Hi & welcome to our S2007 - For My Beautiful Friend CTMH Australasian Stamp of the Month Blog hop. If you arrived from Lauren's blog, you are in the right place. Or if you just popped in, I hope you will hop around and see what the other talented ladies have created.

I have been busy with other projects, but did have the chance to create 2 cards, so far, using this gorgeous stamp set. 

For my first card, I used some paper from the NEW Mix In pack - now available - to cut an envelope using the Artfully Sent Cricut Collection. After colouring my flowers with Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend Markers - Pale Pink, Hydrangea, Citrus Yellow, Orange & Dull Green, I fussy cut around the bouquet then added it just inside the envelope. The background paper is from the NEW Summer Vibes paper pack. I added some Gold Embellishing Thread and White & Gold Ribbon to finish off my card.

For my second card, I used the same paper from the NEW Mix In paper pack for the background. One of the great features of the CTMH stamps is that they are flexible so can be bent. I cut a circle using the Basic Circles Thin Cuts, then curved the stamp onto the block before stamping in Black Memento ink. I coloured the flowers using the Peach Shimmer Brush & the leaves using the Evergreen Shimmer Brush. For the butterfly, I added strips of Peach, Wisteria & Mint Shimmer Brush to a piece of White Daisy cardstock, then when that had dried, I stamped the butterfly using Black Memento ink. I then fussy cut the butterfly and added it to the circle using 3D Foam tape. Added a Scallop Circle from Glacier cardstock behind my stamped circle & finished my card with Silver Embellishing Thread.

The July Stamp of the Month - S2007 For My Beautiful Friend is available during July for just $9.00 when you spend $80.00 with your consultant, or you can purchase the stamp set for $34.00 without a qualifying order. But make sure you get it this month before it goes!
