Stamp of the Month Bloghop for May 2015

Hello! Happy May Day!!

Welcome to the May 2015 Stamp of the Month Bloghop!!!
This month we are featuring, "Just Sayin'", a stamp set with 14 images.

By completing the bloghop you will be treated to the artwork of 68 participating, CTMH consultants. This page is mine, but you may have come here via http://www.stampologist.com/2015/04/may-sotm-blog-hop-just-sayin.html. When you are ready hop on over to Lela Norris' Blog.

I spent a while looking at this stamp set trying to decide what to do. After several searches on Pinterest, I found a route that I could go with and decided to make a spiritual card. But it could easily be about something else such as coffee..."Anything's Possible with Coffee...Full of Goodness". After all isn't there a classic coffee ad with something like that? I then found a layout that seemed to work for me by LeAnn.

I wanted to use Jackson papers, so I made a manly card. Here it is ...

I wanted to use up some embellishments from my stash. Don't you remember corporate telling us to use what we have and quit hoarding?!! So you will see Cocoa Grosgrain Ribbon, Houndstooth Washi Tape, and Color Ready Kraft Borders from the past. Current products I used were Jackson B&T (available starting today through July 31), Colonial White Cardstock, Juniper Cardstock, and Cocoa Exclusive Ink. Adhesives were a Tombow Gluestick and 3-D Foam Tape. I used a green marker for the handwritten words, but I'm sure we have a Shin Han Marker perfect for this.

You will be able to purchase this stamp set during this month only for $5 with a qualifying order. Adding Jackson paper will help you get there and also this month only we have "Taste of Summer" papers and stamp set to celebrate National Scrapbooking Month. You are invited to place an order here.

Enjoy the rest of the bloghop whichever direction you are moving!

April 2015 Stamp of the Month Bloghop

Welcome to this month's Stamp of the Month Bloghop featuring, "Typed Note".

Prepare to see some wonderful projects using this versatile stamp set. This month there are 67 CTMH consultants participating in this bloghop. In each post there will be links to the before and after blogs. So you may have come to mine via Stefani Ewing's Blog. When you are ready, just click on Gina Brandstetter's Blog to go to the next one following me. Should you have a problem during this hop you can visit Melinda Everett's Blog for a complete list of the bloghop order.

I have created a birthday card appropriate for a guy. It was so easy to make. I stamped the vintage typewriter image on White Daisy cardstock using Sunset Ink Pad and stamped the sentiment with Glacier Ink Pad. I used the Sunset colored B&T from the new, Blossom Paper Packet and did second generation stamping in Lagoon Ink of the pointed index finger image to make a different pattern. I stamped the same image with Lagoon Ink Pad in regular stamping on White Daisy. After I fussy cut it out, I attached a bow from Glacier Extra Thick Twine with a mini Glue Dot. The whole image was adhered with 3-D tape. Everything else was attached with EZ Dots tape runner. I applied our blue sequins from a retired WOTG, but our Lagoon Dots would work nicely. The base is 4.25" x 5.5" regular card from our Value Pack of cards and envelopes.

The "Typed Note" Stamp set is available only in April of 2015. You may qualify to purchase it for $5 or pay $17.95 outright on my retail site nancysheart2heart.ctmh.com. Your own consultant will offer it, too.

Enjoy the rest of the SOTM Bloghop and thanks for stopping by! Nancy

Card Kits for May 2014

Father's Day is on the horizon! I always try to make guy cards at this time. Then I send one to my uncle and save the rest for all the men's birthdays for the summer and fall seasons.

I am excited to send the Happy Camper card to my BFF because she is going "camping" this June. Last year she pitched her tent and then saw all the bees and ants in the campsite. That was it for her; she packed up and rented the one remaining cabin at the resort!!

On another note, I made a "card in a box" which mails in a regular envelope. They are such fun to make and can easily be adapted for any occasion.

Each kit below will come with full assembly directions. You will have precut papers, ribbons, and embellishments to make five cards. I will prestamp for you or you can buy the stamp set(s) used to complete them. Under each card kit are options for purchase.

Here are the kits...
