July Stamp of the Month art: Circus Alphabet

I'm anxiously awaiting my new supplies so I can create some art for the Open House with brand new products from the upcoming Close To My Heart 2014 Annual Inspirations Idea Book.  Looks like my order may come in tomorrow - yeah!  I had to move the date of the Open House back a bit to Saturday, August 16th from 9am to 2pm.  Here is a sneak peek of the brand new cover:



A quick note, we are getting 5 new colors!  Woo-hoo!  Unfortunately, that means we have to say good-bye to some colors: Blush, Buttercup, Creme Brulee, Sky, and Twilight.  I always hate having to leave behind colors, but I definitely love getting new ones!

I found some time to whip out a few cards with July's Stamp of the Month set, Circus Alphabet.  It is a super cute alphabet, great for quick titles or sentiments.  For the BEE Yourself card, I used a couple of bee themed sets too: Honeycomb and Happy Hive. Playing around with colors, I ended up using Crystal Blue, Lagoon, Creme Brulee, Honey and Ruby. 



With the Thanks for the LIFT card, I used the Feathers and the In the Background set along with the quatrefoil print from the Basics Assortment Paper Fundamentals set.  Good news -- if you are a fan of this paper set, it now comes in Whimsy, Enchantment and Adventure colors too when the new Idea Book goes live.



Finally with the LOVE card, I stamped hearts from one of the stamp sets from the Cricut Art Philosophy cricut collection.  I also used the chevron print from the same Basics Assortment Paper Fundamentals set along with the colors Whisper, Hollyhock and Ruby.



Sweet, right?  Don't miss out on July's stamp of the month set, Circus Alphabet.  It's too cute to miss out on, make sure to get your order in this month.

Enjoy!
