May 2021 - New month means a new Stamp of the Month from Close to my Heart! May 2021 Stamp of the Month is Flowers for You (S2105) and it is fabulous! This Stamp of the Month is great for scrapbook layouts, cardmaking and has so many versatile sentiments. This card was inspired by the large flower bouquet and the You Are Enough Paper Collection from Close to My Heart. I love the papers and colours in the You Are Enough Paper collection.  I think it is perfect collection to create some amazing cards for some fantastic people in my life. The large flower bouquet image was created two tone using the stamping technique - Rock 'N Roll. Close to my Heart has this great stamping video showing you how to create the Rock 'N Roll stamping technique.
