Broken Treasures: April Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

Welcome to April's Stamp of the Month blog hop! I can hardly believe it is April already! I am so ready for the warm weather, working in my garden and enjoying spring :) If you have come from Jill's blog Scrap Wench you are in the right place! If you not don't worry this is a round robin hop and you can just circle through FIFTY different projects using one fabulous stamp set :) I'm so glad you are here. If you want to start at the beginning you can go to Kathleen's blog Bowl of Stamps.

Our April Stamp of the Month is called "Your Are . . . "

I wasn't sure about this set at first but after working with it I fell in love! It really is a must have kind of stamp set because it is a nice mixture with two different background stamps, a border stamp and some fun title/phrase stamps!

You can get this stamp two ways:
1. Purchase directly from your CTMH consultant or on my website here or
2. Place a $50 order with your CTMH consultant or with me here and get the "You Are" stamp set for $5

I made two cards with this set to show you. The first is a fun birthday card that I made from Theresa over at Lost In Paper (a new found favorite paper crafting blog)

Materials Used:

Black, Smoothie, Sunny Yellow, Pear, Lagoon & Gypsy Ink

Creme Brulle Baker's Twine

Sweet Leaf & Daisy White Cardsock

The second card is more of a masculine card that I made inspired by this card on Splitcoasters

Materials Used:

Chocolate Ink

Chocolate, Daisy White Cardstock

Chocolate Brads

Cork Stars

Art Philosophy Cartridge (to cut out the stars)

Both of my cards were taken off of my pinterest board - where I get a ton of inspiration :)

Another fabulous deal this month is the Dotty For You Paper Pack (valued at $19.95) for only $5 with a $35 order. This deal starts April 17th and runs through the end of May. However, if you sign up with the Close To My Heart club from April 1 through the 16th you will get this paper pack for FREE!
