from the bottom of my heart!


On the 7th of each month new special release sets debut for members of the {stamps} of Life...the gallery opens with always amazing cards from the design team using the new sets. Early access is one of the benefits of membership, because the rest of the stamping world doesn't get to see them until the 11th!  Let me tell you, the creativity of this team always blows me away!

When my new stamps arrive each month, I like to think on 'em for a while before I get to work. I always show them to my 16 yo son, Matthew, and this month we were at lunch at PF Chang's brain-storming about what I could do with them (usually he is rolling his eyes, bored to tears, but he sweetly indulges me)!  This text-message sentiment using basic4abc was actually his idea and I absolutely adore it!  This card is one of two that I made using it.  The cursive sentiment is from thanks2You, with a little heart and xoxo from love2hug.  They all go so perfectly together!  And on back, the bottom of the card is stamped with a signature from stamped4You.  :)

This was made with scraps of designer paper left over from long-ago cards.  The pale swirlies on the background are from another new set, swirls2build.

I'll be sharing more cards made with this month's sets throughout the rest of June, so I hope you'll visit again!
