Welcome to the Stamp of the Month Blog Hop! 

We will be featuring December’s SOTM, which is called Amore a set of 13 stamps.  If you have come here from Mary’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.   

This month we have over 60 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!

For the romantic in you, look at all the beautiful images in this stamp set. 

And my creation:  I choose to emboss the viney heart with white embossing powder and then rubbed blush ink over the raised image.  Then stamped Love in tulip in the center.  Finally, I rubbed blush ink over an oval dimensional element and stamped Be Mine in the center, threaded through some tulip ribbon and wrapped around the blush paper.  The sparkles in the corner add the finishing touch.  This card design is from the Wishes book however, it is shown in a 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 size and I adapted it to a larger 6×6 card. 

Recipe:

Cherry-O Paper pack, Versamark stamp pad, White embossing powder, Booksmart Dimensional Elements, Blush stamp pad, Tulip Stamp pad, Tulip mini-medley (Ribbon), Pink sparkles, Tulip cardstock
