July's Stamp of the Month set: Sweet Life!

I made some time early this month to play around with July's Stamp of the month set: Sweet Life!  It is a very artistic set with several sentiments that coordinate perfectly.  My first one, I just reached for our new markers and colored away.  Have you used our new markers yet?  I absolutely love them!  I can easily color without any lines, blend and color over areas without the paper pilling.  So nice!!!  I think I used the two Creme Brulee colors with a touch of the lighter Autumn Terracotta color.



Then I decided to color with our Watercolor pencils next.  I also had fun with combining several embellishments on the card as well.



Then just to keep with doing something different, on this last card I paper pieced.  It is very clean and simple, but I really like how it turned out.  I love the patterns peeking out on the images.



This set is only available until the end of July, so don't wait to order it.  You can just purchase it regularly priced, or get it for only $5.00 with a qualifying order.

We also have a couple of patriotic stamp sets available this month, and here is a quick card made with one of the sets.  Love it!  Perfect for the Fourth of July holiday weekend pictures.  :-)



Our current Idea Book is live until 7/31/13!  This is your last chance to stock up on any patterned paper, embellishments and basically everything else but the stamps.  Any of the retired items are on a while supplies last status, and there are a few things already unavailable -- so don't wait to get your order in!!!  Starting in August, we'll have a brand new Autumn/Winter 2013 Idea Book (and a brand new Cricut cartridge that you are going to absolutely adore, and so much more to share!).  More details on an Open House to come soon...
