CTMH-- July SOTM Blog Hop

Hello,

Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop! We will be featuring July's SOTM, which is called Sweet Life, a set of 9 stamps. If you have come here from Krista's Blog, you are on the right path! The blog hop is a great big circle, so you can start here and work your way all around. If you get lost along the way, you’ll find the complete list of participating consultants here Helen's Blog.

This month we have over 50 Close To My Heart Consultants sharing their creations using this month's SOTM and other great CTMH products on their blogs. This is simple to do - just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one! Here we go!

To create these cards, I used CTMH's now retired 'Claire' line. For the stamped images, I used CTMH's new line of alcohol based markers.  The color combo markers make coloring so easy! The cherry card was inspired by page 72 of the current Spring/Summer CTMH catalog.

Please be sure to check out Melinda's Blog.  Thanks for stopping by, Maureen:)

CTMH-- Perfect Fit Dad

Hello, I'm back after 5 weeks of unpacking!!  We only moved 1/2 mile away, but this was a killer move for us.  I think I'm just too old for this:)  On the plus side, our home is much bigger, has central air and I have a huge craft studio!  I'll be posting pictures of my craft room shortly.  Anyone that has seen it is like "Wow!!!".

Anyway, here is a card that I made for my dad. I used CTMH's now retired Dakota paper line.  The stamp set is "Perfect Fit-Dad" (C1542).  I love the mustache, which I was able to cut out using CTMH's Artiste!

Thanks for stopping by, Maureen:)
