August Stamp of the Month- Something Splendid!

I created these cards last week using the new Something Splendid August Stamp Set. Each month Close To My Heart has a Stamp of the Month, a stamp set that is featured and only available that particular month.  The best part is that you can get the Stamp of the Month at a discount or free! Click here to learn how!

I used the August Stamp of the Month, Something Splendid (D1424) and the Cherry-O Level 2 Paper Pack to create these super cute cards. I love how easy it was to create cards using our idea books!  The patterns for the 8 x 3 1/2 card is Center Sash from Originals book.  The pattern for the 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card  is Lucky Layers from the Wishes idea book. 

Do you like what you see?  Contact me before this month is up to order your set.  Here are all of the fun images on the Something Splendid stamp set:

Happy Creating!
