July Stamp of the Month: Life is Wonderful

I'm loving' July! Well, maybe not all the rain -- but definitely the warm weather.  I could never deal with another winter the rest of my life and be perfectly content. July's stamp set is named Life is Wonderful.   I finally found some time to make some cards to share with this set.  

For the first card I started with basic, neutral colors -- Black, White with a bit of Flaxen (Whimsy Paper Fundamentals).  Then I added a pop of color with the flowers in the Wavy Blooms set.  I love how the colored flowers pull the card together.  I added the "awesome" sentiment from the Hello Summer set. 



With this next card I knew I wanted to use the Cranberry heart-patterned paper from the Adventure Paper Fundamentals.  Then I kept everything else neutral -- Black, White and Slate.  I added the "you are loved" sentiment from the Your Own Kind of Wonderful set.  For the final touch, I added a few Red Enamel hearts.



This last card, I used the Jackson papers from the Seasonal Expressions 2.  I paper pieced a few flowers from the Love This set and used a sentiment from a stamp set with the Cricut Artfully Sent collection.  I did all the stamping with Cocoa ink; I love how all the papers and colors coordinate so well.



And with a $25 purchase in current, retail priced stamps -- you can qualify to receive this stamp set FREE -- as part of Jump on it July's special.  Check it out!  :-)
