Paper Garden – September 2015 Stamp of the Month

 

Today I would like to share with you this little creation, which features Paper Garden – September 2015 Stamp of the Month, available exclusively throughout September for $27 or for just $7.50 when you spend $75.

I love this month’s stamp set there is so many different things you can do with it, so many different techniques & ideas work with this stamp set. For this blog hop I have choose to do a soft look with pigment ink pads.

Paper Garden September Stamp of the Month

Because pigment ink pads are in little squares & stay wet longer, I was able to use multiple colours on the stamp images to create this mason jar of flowers. The flowers were fussy cut out and attached behind the mason jar.

The Mason jar was cut out from the Cricut Artistry Collection and I wrapped thick Glacier twine & added a charm. In the heart window I added Gold Glitter Paper. The jar has been placed onto some Zoe paper cut at an angle and attached to Kraft cardstock and embellished with Gold Foil Tape.

Add the September Stamp of the Month: Paper Garden stamp set to your cart at full retail price of $27 OR, with your qualifying order of $75, add it at checkout for the promotional price of $7.50. You only have until Sep 30th to own it.

I’d love for you to leave a comment before heading off to the next stop, the very talented Doris Taylor: Creative Inspirations who I am sure will showcase something amazing with this set!

Enjoy the hop!

    1. Yes I wouldn’t normally be into fussy cutting, in fact I originally thought it needed more, but I rearranged & cut one of the flowers down to fill up the jar.
