CTMH SOTM Blog Hop

Happy August!!  It is sure busy around here with the NEW Idea Book release today!!  But that also means that today is the Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!  If you have been hoppin' with us, then you have just arrived from Krista's blog. 

This month's stamp set is called S1208 Baroque Borders and every time I looked at it, I thought "Wow - wouldn't this make a great wedding invitation?!

 
 But sadly there are no weddings happening here anytime soon BUT there will be a celebration of our Wedding this month!  My husband and I are celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary on August 12th!  Here is that "oh so young" couple from 1972.....
And here we are today!!

Still laughing or we are both crazy for hanging in there so long!! So I decided to create a anniversary card for the "Big Guy" with this stamp set.  A very simple and plain one is perfect, I think!  What about you?

 Supplies:
S1208 Baroque Borders
White daisy, Black cardstock
NEW COLOR!  - Z2173 Slate ink
Z1335 - Licorice Opaques Adhesive Gems 
Z1787 - Slate Mini-Medley accents 
Z1802 - Slate Polka Dot ribbon 
"Say It In Style" retired card sentiments 

So it is off to Amy's blog  to check out her inspiration for this hop.   Remember there will be lots of action in this creative space so you are going to want to check in often - or better yet.  Sign up to follow my blog so you do not miss one day of inspiring creations!
