The July 2014 Stamp of the Month, Circus Alphabet, is so versatile for all crafting projects. It is a complete set of whimsical uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers and punctuation. The possibilities are endless, and as a My Acrylix stamp set, placement is never easier!
Each month you can purchase a new D-size stamp set, available for one month only, for just $5 — that’s over 70% off retail! When you place an order of $50 or more in Close To My Heart products, you qualify for this special Stamp of the Month pricing. Otherwise, you can purchase this set outright for $17.95.
Since I am always in need of Thank You cards, I made the following using the Circus Alphabet set and the beautiful Ariana paper packet and coordinating accessories. I also used the Art Philosophy cartridge to make the floral centerpiece.
Want some other ideas? Take a look at this video for other fun uses for this set:
Speaking of inspiring art, I knew that I wanted to use the inspirational Skylark paper pack before moving into the next Idea Book cycle. Therefore, I created my final workshop for this Idea Book using the Skylark paper pack and coordinating embellishments.
Please join me in making three two-page layouts with the nature-based beauty of this paper (details below):
