 Hello and welcome aboard our "Nevermore" Australasian... Close to My Heart Blog Hop. If you
 have arrived here from Tanya's Page,- Happy Paper Crafting http://happypapercrafting.com/?p=72 then you are in the right place. If you landed here by accident, no problem, please join in by following the link at the end of this post to go to the next blog page.

"Nevermore" colour palette and complements are New and featured in the Holiday Expressions supplement along with the Christmas products and papers. Most of the samples are of Halloween theme so if you celebrate this event then this is the palette for you but what I love about CTMH is that all the palettes suit any occasion. As you can see from the samples above it showcases the purples, oranges, greys and black.....a great colour combination. My project focuses on the greys in this paper pack and I teamed it up with my most favourite September Stamp of the Month.



This is a card cut from Whisper cardstock and finished size is 8 x 4 inches and is featuring the wonderful, amazing NEW Fundamentals Assortments in black... along with black shimmer trim and the flowers from September SOTM. The flowers are stamped with sunset and eggplant inks using the rock and roll and dab technique.....so effective.

Spring is in the air and this would be a delight to give and receive

CTMH September 'Paper Garden' Stamp of the Month

14 comments


 Hello and welcome aboard our Stamp of the month Australasian Close to My Heart Blog Hop. If you
 have arrived here from Shaunna's Page,- Passionate about Pages http://wp.me/p43YPS-mf then you are in the right place. If you landed here by accident, no problem, please join in by following the link at the end of this post. 

September's Stamp of the Month S1509.....'Paper Garden'......  is available exclusively throughout September only.... for just $27 or for $7.50 when you spend $75. There are 10 individual stamps in this set and they are flowers so they are just wonderful and can be added to any project. This stamp set has so many possibilities so check out all the posts for loads of ideas for cards and scrapbook pages.
Some of the images in this set have a red outline and this means that they can be cut to size with the cricut and our amazing Artiste cricut cartridge and then stamped.....fitting perfectly and no fussy cutting. I chose to feature the other flower stamps and just wanted to include them in a 'scene' format. I used our inks and ink distressing tools...daubers and sponges to create a sunset. I have so many photos where I captured the sunset but also picked up the weeds or foliage growing on the sand dunes. My favourite sunsets are the orange/ yellow but you may enjoy the pink so we have both.

This makes an amazing 6x6 card. As this set has no sentiments you get to partner it with one of our wonderful sentiments of your choice. To complete this project you will get inky with sponges....just choose 2 colours and add ink with a circular motion. In order to get the bright sun/moon just use our double purpose bonding memories broad tip glue and place a circle of card stock on the page and ink distress around it. Just play and when you are satisfied add your floral display in black so you get the silhouette effect.





 "Paper Garden" Stamp of the Month is only available until 30th September from Wendy Hopper your CTMH consultant. I'd love you to leave a comment and follow my blog before heading off to the next stop. Check out ....Maz Wood Inky Fingershttp://wp.me/p45lJH-nu
