Welcome to the stamp of the month blog hop- today we are featuring the Cross Stitch Wishes stamp set! If you have come from Michelle’s blog then you are on the correct path. To see this stamp set you can follow this link to view it.
I had to think out of the box for this stamp set – and since New Year’s Eve is today I am always ‘stuck’ on gold and party thoughts! I used the stamp set on the large heart and on the three small hearts- you cannot see them as I then turned them into a scalloped border to the right of my photos. I also added one of the arrows and stamped it in colonial white pigment ink (I love how it looks agains the black paper).
Here are some close up photos. Since my photos were of my daughter all dressed up like a diva (on a day she was very sick but she wanted to go visit Santa)- I decided to play up the diva-flair with the use of gold. For this I used some of the Washi tape the comes in the cloud nine card kit (this is a special during the month of January) and I also used a generous amount of our gold glitter paper. The images in glitter paper are cut from our art booking cartridge and the heats from the stamp set are from the artiste cartridge.
Now hop on over to Michelle Jones blog!
