New Stamps for June

So we're 10 days into the month and with the special releases being made available to everyone tomorrow, I figured I'd better get my post done about the really fun June stamp set!

It's the super cute Kites2Fly!


If you enjoy paper piecing, this is the stamp set for you. There are so many fun possibilities with this set. Here are a few of the things I came up with, including a digital scrapbook page using the digital brushes (.abr format, they also come in .jpg and .png formats so there are lots of great options).










And the digital scrapbook page:


You can see more wonderful ideas using this stamp set by visiting The {Stamps} of Life gallery! Share your creations with us and you'll be entered into the random drawing for a stamp set of your choice!

Stay tuned, I'll be back (hopefully tomorrow!) with samples using the special release! If you are a club member, you have already gotten to see the great sets, and have even been able to order them! Are you a club member? You should be! There are great perks and benefits that come from belonging to the club!

Another TSOL Challenge!

Lookee here! It's been two weeks since our last challenge. Is it just me, or is the passage of time a lot like trying to hold sand that just slips through your fingers?

Anyway! This week's challenge is to cut out the main image of your card. And the kite from the June stamp set is perfect for this challenge!

One of my favorite sources for little bitty cards is a 3x5 index card. They're the perfect size for a card base when you want a mini-card. This card was fast and simple but is also really cute (if I do say so myself!).
