July Blog Hop: You've Got Flair

Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop! We will be featuring July's SOTM, which is You've Got Flair, a set of 8 stamps. If you have come here from Julia Menssen's blog, you are on the right path! If this is your first stop, you may want to go back to Jena's blog and start from the beginning!

This month we have 44 Close To My Heart Consultants sharing their creations using this month's SOTM and other great CTMH products on their blogs. This is simple to do - just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one! Here we go!




















You've Got Flair - 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" card
I used the colors from a recent Color Me Monday challenge from Jeanette Lynton's blog. I love the way the pinks and greens go together! The image was stamped using brown Staz-On ink, then select portions were cut out using a craft knife. The image was pop-dotted on the background piece. I love the effect!
