Welcome to : June SOTM Blog Hop - It's Your Day to Sparkle

Hey! Can you believe it's June already? We have been having a very wet

spring so maybe June will bring some dry weather.

Meanwhile, there is 20 Consultants posting in this Blog Hop featuring the June Stamp of the Month~It's Your Day to Sparkle. It has several different uses including Weddings, Anniversaries and even birthdays. Hope you enjoy the different ideas as you hop through.

If you have come here from Brenda Lapp you are on the right track. 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 on Melinda Everitt.

First of all, I used the June Paper Pack of the month- True Love and the colors this paper pack was based on for all the projects you see here.

I decided to make a two page layout and two cards. The layout background was stamped with the new background stamp set using Mint and Sage stamp pads. The hearts are stamped with the Ballerina Stamp pad.

Left Side of Layout

The flowers are water colored using the Ballerina, Sugar Plum, New England Ivy stamp pads. The Cake is Sugar Plum and Pewter. Stamp with the Black Memento first so the lines don't smear. The Layout design came from our Make It From Your Heart Vol. 3.- Pattern 19 (page 42 and 43)

Right Side of Layout

This card is made from the Make It From Your Heart - Vol. 4 Pattern 13 on page 30 and 31 with a little bit of tweaking. The circle and scalloped circle are cut from Thin Cuts. I stamped the Happy Birthday with Canary Stamp Pad on Canary Card stock for a background. Very simple card that could be used for a guy.

This card was made from the Make It From Your Heart Vol. 4- Pattern 9 (page 22 and 23).

I embossed the background on this card with the new embossing folder Flower Garden. The Squares are the stitched thin cuts. I stamped the corner of the cake on a White Daisy so I could watercolor and fussy cut just the flowers and adhere them to the corner with foam tape. The congratulations and sign are stamped separate and fussy cut and adhered with foam tape. I used the Sugar Plum Shimmer Brush to all the flowers on everything for the darker shade after water coloring them with the Ballerina Stamp pad.
