CTMH Stamp of the Month Blog Hop: Sunny Thoughts

Welcome to the February Stamp of the Month blog hop featuring the cheerful Sunny Thoughts stamp set! (If you're already hopping then you've probably arrived from Jean's blog.  From here, you'll visit Carol T.'s blog next.)

Of course I had to use a sun CTMH/Cricut cut (from the Artbooking cartridge) to coordinate with the Sunny Thoughts stamp set.  I cut this sunrise at 4" from Canary card stock, and  I stamped the sentiment in Glacier onto the card front, and then splattered gold shimmer brush onto the card front and the Canary sun.

NOTE: Be careful squeezing your shimmer brush to be able to splatter it onto your card front!  I ended up with a huge blog on my sentiment, so that card went in the trash.

My second card front went much better, so I mounted the sun rays onto the pretty Glacier patterned paper from the Chelsea Gardens collection.

I wish you could see the pretty shimmer on this card in person, because it is so difficult to photograph!  You'll notice that I finished the card with a piece of Whimsy Glacier & Gold ribbon.
