Before I get talking about Close To My Heart's beautiful August Stamp of the Month, let me remind you that the "$2, $4, $6, for 8" scrapbook sale begins tomorrow morning on my website, August 4 and goes through August 11 (while supplies last). This over 50% off sale is stupendous. Click here to get the details and see the actual products that are available now.On to August Stamp of the Month information: As you know, with a new month comes a new CTMH Stamp of the Month. This month's (Something Splendid - D1424) is gorgeous and one that makes me happy just looking at it. The large flower (solid and outline images) is gorgeous and very timely. As I drive along the road I see the big wild sunflowers that look just like this everywhere. Although I didn't choose to use the traditional wild sunflower colors of golden yellow and brown on my card, you sure could!
The image you see of the stamp set is of the carrier sheet the stamps come on. The actual size of that sheet is 6" x 6". This card features the large flower stamped tone-on-tone as a background image. I used the smaller flower image on the little circle accent. It's a simple card, but I kinda like it!

Ooooh! I love the card and never would have thought to put it with those papers and colors...you inspire me!
Of all of the cards I have seen made with this stamp set, your card certainly is at the top of the list! I love how you used the flower as the background image. The use of Cherry-O paper is an excellent addition, as well.
Thank you for sharing!
Beautiful, love the tone on tone!
WOW!!! Soooooooo gorgeous!!!
