Hello! Don't freak out, I know I am early with my samples! Truthfully, they got made a couple of weeks ago because I am doing a booth at a stamp convention the last weekend in July. I am teaching a couple of classes with the June and July kits so I had to get them done to promote my class. But, beyond that, I knew I could not think about them until the June kits were made and in the mail. That happened last weekend so now I thought I should show you July! I love summer image stamps so that is the theme but I did combine the summer images with all occasions, like birthday, thinking of you, get well, friendship, etc. I love them all, and I hope you do too! Enjoy!
Wait, I should give you the kit details, just in case, you are not familiar ... you get 2 of 5 designs, plus a bonus card made by me, ready to send. And of course, it includes complete instructions, and color copies of each finished card. Cost is $35. ($30 + $5 shipping).
Card #1 is my fun fold of the month! It is a Peek-a-Boo card! It is one that I have not made before, but I love it!
From the front, you see a circle opening with a ice cream cone, but then,,,
When it gets opened, instead of a ice cream cone in the circle, there is a sentiment -Peek-a-Boo!
What is summer without flip flops? I had to do it, especially when you find cute paper!
Here is the inside, which makes for a perfect thinking of you card, or you could even write in Happy Birthday!
Looking for summer papers and all, I came across this set of seal stamps, cuteness overload. I had to order them, sealiously!!
Since I used a die to create the water instead of designer paper, I decided to add another seal stamp on the inside panel...
Summer picnics and ants make for a perfect friendship card ...
I had in my mind to do a summer daisy card, but then I saw this floral stamp with daisies and thought perfect!
I decided to leave this card blank on the inside because it will work for a couple of different occasions like thinking of you or get well. And it might even be okay to make it a birthday card. If you need me to stamp a specific sentiment inside, just let me know, and I can do that!
And then there is the bonus card. The paper reminded me of a pool, so I was glad to be able to ink up this Pure Innocence girl that I bought a year or so ago and have never used! lol!
Another one I left blank, so that you can add what you want! It will definitely work for most all occasions!
Those are the July cards. I am making more than usual but that doesn't mean you should not let me know you want one, especially if you are one that picks and chooses the months you want. And if you are local, and are planning to attend the Heirloom Stamp Convention in Grapevine, let me know, and I will bring your kit and you can save on shipping. Plus, I would love to see you!
Happy Stamping!
