Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for February. Wild About Love includes some adorable foxes to make you wonder 'What Does the Fox Say'?
If you have come here from Nikka's Create Your Vision blog, you are on the right path! Blog Hopping is simple to do - just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one!
One of the pieces of patterned paper in the new Skylark kit includes nice colorful strips in the corner with birds on a wire, so I used that portion of the paper for the background. The cute pair of foxes along with the sentiment are in the Wild About Love stamp set. For something a little different, a cloud shape was cut using the Artiste Cricut cartridge and a mini Hook & Loop Dot is used to keep the flap closed. On the flap is a piece of cardstock with a nice edge using the Scallop Border Punch along with some metallic Baker's Twine and woodgrain Washi Tape.
Place a $50 minimum order this month (February 2014) and you are eligible to purchase the Wild About Love stamp set for only $5.
If you get lost along the way, the complete list of participants is available on Melinda's 'If You Bling It' blog.
All papers and stamps are from Close To My Heart (CTMH).

Love it - just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lori. :)
DeleteCute card! Those colors really work together.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nancy. In my mind, the foxes need to be brown and I really loved that corner of Skylark b&t.
DeleteYour card is fabulous- and foxy!
ReplyDeleteThanks Haley. It was fun to create.
DeleteLove your card! I really like how you made a closure for it with the cloud using the little velcro dot. Great use of the patterned paper.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Melinda. Using the cloud was a happy 'surprise' because when I reached into my White Daisy bag of cardstock, I intended to punch a scallop circle. But then saw that leftover cloud from the Cloud Nine kit and it worked beautifully with the sentiment.
DeleteSuperb card- so much thought put into this!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Joy!
DeleteI really like the way this card works so well with the Skylark paper, it has the outdoors feel, and I love the layered scallop border. Fabulous design.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Michelle. It actually came together very quickly after decided on the corner piece of the Skylark b&t. :)
DeleteThis is my favorite card so far! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Adeline. This stamp set is not really my style, so I was very pleased with how the card turned out.
DeleteLove the colors, love the layout and well everything! Great card.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Susan. Glad you like it. :)
DeleteBeautiful Sheila! The sweet stamp inside reminds me of Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michelle. I love the tree stump stamp.
DeleteLOVE, LOVE, LOVE this card...especially the Skylark B&T you used and the wood-grain washi!
