2012 National Stamping Month Blog Hop

Welcome to the 2012 National Stamping Month Blog Hop!  I'm so glad you stopped over from Allisa Chilton's blog, Rocky Mountain Paper Crafts.

I'm loving this adorable double stamp set CTMH is giving you for only $5 with your $35 order, now through September 30th.  With a retail value of $35.90, It's Your Day really increases the value of your qualifying purchase.  You'll love the trendy images and musings, and will love even more that many of the 48 images work with your Cricut Artiste cartridge!


It's Your Day

Here's what I came up with using It's Your Day:

First, I stamped that awesome chevron stripe with Ruby to create a background paper on Cashmere:

It was late and I was tired, so it's not perfect, but neither am I.  I like that it's a little wonky in some places.  Here's the finished piece of cardstock:

Then, I fed the now patterned cardstock into my Cricut, loaded up Artiste, and cut out the little box using 3D Object  at 3".

I also cut out the little tab with Accent 1 <7> at 2 1/2".  I created another patterned paper with the tab using the dots image and Outdoor Denim ink.  I used Smokey Plum, Ruby and Outdoor Denim for the sentiments.  A little Burlap Ribbon (Z1760) and a Foundry Pin completed my box.  Hello Life!

Now, head on over to Gina Brandstetter's blog, Gina's Little Corner of Stmapin Heaven to see what cute creations she's come up with.
