March's Stamp of the Month…."Floral Happiness"

Welcome to the CTMH Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!

March 2013’s Stamp of the Month is called…..

****Floral Happiness****

The blog hop makes a circle so if you are starting here just continue until you make your way back and you will have made it through them all. If you have already started and are coming from Laurie Newton’s blog, “Scrap’s from the Beach”, then you are on the right track.

For my card, I was inspired by both this challenge at The Shabby Tea Room and this lovely card on Etsy.

I cut the zipper off of the Hollyhock zipper lace to add just a punch of deeper shade of pink. It actually cut very nicely. 🙂

Supplies used (all CTMH unless otherwise noted):

Paper: Chantilly, Kraft CS, White Daisy CS

Stamps Used: Floral Happiness, Love Doily
Inks: Blush, Cotton Candy, Sweet Leaf, Cashmere, Desert Sand, VersaMark

Embellishments: Hollyhock Zipper Lace, Sparkles Flourish, Color-ready Seam Binding,

Other: White Embossing Powder, Edge Distresser, Corner Rounder, Sponge, Micro-tip Scissors, Paper Trimmer, Bone Folder, Craft Heater, 3D Foam Tape, ATG Adhesive (Scotch), Stick Pins (Jenni Bowlin Studios)

Here’s a look at the entire stamp set.
