September SOTM Blog Hop (Blessed Beyond Measure)

Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop! 
 We will be featuring September's SOTM, which is "Blessed Beyond Measure", a set of 19 stamps.  If you have come here from Melinda Everitt, you are on the right path! The blog hop is a great big circle, so you can start here and work your way all around.  If you get lost along the way, you’ll find the complete list of participating consultants on Melinda’s Blog: HERE

This month we have  approximately 30 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 on! Here we go!


I like Poppy, so inked the Whimsy Sorbet patterned paper with Poppy ink.  The paper used for the smaller leaf and the 5 smaller leaves is from the Saffron paper from the Enchantment Fundamentals.. The leaves were "Cricut cut" using Artbooking according to the instructions found on the Blessed Beyond Measure carrier sheet instructions.  I added gold sequins with clear sparkles, a strip of gold shimmer trim, Rustic Home jute ribbon, and a strip of the Whimsey Sorbet paper with more Poppy ink and stamped with a pattern from the Flower Market Stamp background stamp set (chocolate). The 5 smaller leaves also have a texture stamped in chocolate.  The "paint strokes" are Stamped in Poppy - 3 generations using the Brushstrokes (C1608) stamp set. 

Now "Hop" on over to Jean McNulty  see her work! Be sure to visit all the Consultants at their Blogs to get some great crafting ideas and other fun ideas! Remember, the September SOTM is only available until August September 30!  Contact your CTMH Consultant (or click here) to see how you can get this stamp set at a discount!
