May Stamp of the Month- again?

 


Another card I made with primarily Oxide Inks, Stencil Pack 1 and 2, Circles and Patterns Workshop kit, Postage Frames Thin cuts, and Black Acrylic embellishments and a left-over piece from In Full Blooms embellishments. White Daisy Ink, White Paint Pen, white gel pen, stamp set from the Circles and Patterns and the sentiment is from the May Stamp of the Month.

And I thought this stamp set was going to be hard to come up with very many card ideas. LOL!

Circles and Patterns Scrapbook Workshop Kit


So, another Close to My Heart Maker (unfortunately I can't remember who) made a heart on a card with these fun stamps and thin cuts and I looked up other Tangrams on Google and found this one that was fun to copy. I had to cut the card as a 6" x 6" to fit it on. Remember that size? LOL! I learned the hard way NOT to make it for a swap that had to be sent in the mail. This size is best for handing to the recipient. I used up leftovers of these circles and pieces from my previous scrapbook layouts shown earlier. 


I used the Postage Frames Thin Cuts for the sentiment, and the Love came from the May Stamp of the Month. I used Oxide Inks to color in the sentiment also. I thought it was fun playing around with this idea. 
If you have this set, find a Tangram to copy and make a card or scrapbook layout and share your beautiful creation in the comments of this post on my Facebook Group, Making Pretty Things with Paper.

 This Kit and all the other National Scrapbook Day Kits are available until May 31 or until supplies last.

May Stamp of the Month Kits

 

May Stamp of the Month Kits!

I used more of the Fresh Paint Paper and color scheme on these three cards. I wasn't sure how I was going to come up with 3 different designs, so here's my ideas and I hope you like them. Lots of watercoloring using our Watercolors and even the ink from our Ink Pads. So, you will be getting watercolor paper in your kits because our White Daisy won't stand up to all the water you will be using. 

Here are the close ups of each card that is included in the kits. 


Someone suggested that some of the sentiments and the scenery design would work great on Graduation Cards and Scrapbook Layouts. I think I would have to agree! What do you think?




I used pieces of the acrylic embellishments and Fresh Paint Acrylic Shapes on these cards. You may not get what is exactly on the cards but, you are guaranteed embellishments from these collections in your kits.

May Color of the Month Kit

 Sorry, I am kind of behind again. I keep getting closer to catching up though and I will be doing those lives to make all these cards soon. 

Anyway, here is the May Color of the Month

It's graduation time, what can I say? The colors of the Fresh Paint Paper just go so well with the graduation theme I thought. They are so bright and cheerful and "cool"! 

This month I couldn't find an A-size stamp set so you will be getting two of the M-size and they "were absolutely made for each other" as you can see in the picture below of the card, I designed for ya! I am also adding a bottle of the Stickles to round out that price!
