Welcome to the September Stamp of the Month Blog Hop. I am the next stop in this blog hop following Jill Lucas' Blog. We have over 60 Close to My Heart Consultants participating in this month’s Stamp of the Month Blog Hop.
The September Stamp of the Month is entitled Fall Favorites (Set of 11). Here is a picture of this stamp set:
I have so been waiting to work with this stamp set! Close to My Heart now has alcohol markers! Woo Hoo! Our markers are in Close to My Heart colors so they match our papers and dye inks! Can I hear another Woo Hoo?!! I don't have all of the colors I needed so I added a few of my Copics to finish off the scene. Our markers are a bit different from Copics. First of all they are a whole lot cheaper and they come in a set of 2 markers. For a set of 2 markers, the price is $5.95. In the set one of the markers is the Close to My Heart color and the second one is a complementary color. I love to color so I had a ball making this card.
I wish that I could get a better picture. The colors are so vibrant with the alcohol markers and I even colored the sky blue. I may try and take a better picture tomorrow, but for now this one will have to do.
