Your Next Stamp March Feature - Think Spring

Welcome to the March YOUR NEXT STAMP feature post. Each month the design team uses specific stamps or themes to create new projects that will hopefully inspire you!

This month our them is called.......THINK SPRING!

We just welcomed in the first day of spring on March 20th. As we are nearing the end of this month, I decided to use a few different stamps sets to create my April family calendar page. This calendar will hang in the house and is a fun way to keep everyone on track!

Once the calendar is done, I can add the page to my 12 x 12 scrapbook album for a reminder during the year.

I used a number of stamps on this page including:

Love to Plan
Hey Chickie
Word Critters Spring 
Word Critters Cats & Dogs
Mini Party Confetti
Love and Smiles
Birthday Phoebe (books)
Plant Some Kindness

Your Next Stamp June Release Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Your Next Stamp June new release blog hop.

Today we have an amazing blog hop showcase so many fabulous stamps and die. Sit back, grab your favourite beverage and enjoy this month's inspiration. 

Are you ready for summer? I know I am. Looking forward to vacation, not making lunches and lots of BBQ time. That's right BBQ = no cooking for me! My first card I used the BBQ SCENE stamp along with STITCHED SQUARE die set. I also added a few new GUMDROPS from a mixed colour set called Mermaid Fun!

The paper for my card is Echo Park Jack & Jill. You can't tell from the picture, however I paper pieced this image in multiple layers to get a subtle depth to my scene.

Stamps and dies used:

Do you like to garden? I have what I like to call a "black thumb", so I try to avoid any gardening. I will happily stick to colouring (not planting) flowers. I used the sweet PLANT SOME KINDNESS stamp and die set for my card. To create my window and flower box, I used the FUN WITH SQUARES and STITCHED RECTANGLE die.

Here is a look at the inside of the card. I just love the cute sentiments with this set.
