This stamp features a lot of sentiments including birthday ones as well as a bunch of images that could be used in a number of ways.

To My Bestie - May Stamp of the Month #CTMH maz.closetomyheart.com.auToday I would like to share with you a creation which features Close To My Heart’s (S1905) To My Bestie – May Stamp of the Month

For my first card I pulled out one of the sentiments & balloons & mixed up the images from other stamp sets to create this Princess Birthday pop up shadow box card.

From this May Stamp of the Month set I used the saying (that one may normally use in the inside of the card) outside & the balloons inside , just peeking out behind the princess in this shadow box pop up card.

I used a lot of different stamps with the stamp of the month & loved how this card turned out.

My next card I went with something simple, using one of the border stamps, a flower & the Celebrate sentiment.

Celebrate Card with Stamp of the month To My Bestie #ctmh maz.closetomyheart.com.au

I used the large rectangle thin cut & cut it out of peach cardstock & paper from the National Scrapbooking Month – The World Is Yours & used Espresso Exclusive Ink to stamp the images. The scallop border stamped image looks great with the thin cut paper rectangles. The flower covers the join of the image. Quick & Simple.

I hope you enjoyed my ideas on how to use this great stamp set. This exclusive D-size (S1905) To My Bestie – May Stamp of the Month set – only available in January can be yours for just $8.25 AUD/ $7.50 NZD, when you place an order of $82.50 AUD/$75 NZD or more!
