September Stamp of the Month - Thriller

Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop! We will be featuring September's SOTM, which is Thriller, a set of 9 stamps.

If you have come here from Caren's blog you are on the right path!  You can also find a complete list of Blog Hop participants at Helen's blog.

This month we have 68 Close To My Heart Consultants sharing their creations using this month's SOTM and other great CTMH products on their blogs. This is simple to do - just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one! Here we go!

When I saw this set, I knew it was perfect for Halloween bags! 

I got the instructions for the bag here.  I randomly stamped a piece of Cotton Candy cardstock after I scored my paper.  I stamped the skull on a piece of white cardstock and then sponged Cotton Candy ink all over.  I used some Stardust Glitter Glue on the eye patch to make it stand out some.  Finally, I closed the bag with some ribbon.  I think I'll be using these as goodie bags for my upcoming crop!

Supplies Used:
Cardstock: Black, Cotton Candy, White Daisy
Stamp Set: Thriller
Ink: Cotton Candy
Embellishments: Black Ribbon, Stardust Glitter Glue

Now, "hop" on over to Toni's blog to see her work.  Be sure to make your way through all of the consultant blogs to see the fun ideas.  Remember, this stamp set is only available thru the month of September!  Visit my website or contact me to see how you can get this set for a discount or even FREE!

Hooligans - what a fun word!  As soon as I saw this paper and the stickers, I knew what I wanted to do.  I created a board book for Halloween pictures.  After Halloween, all I need to do is get my pictures printed and insert them in the book.  This would probably make a good gift for Grandma but I have a feeling I'll be keeping it for myself.

Supplies Used:

My Creations Board Book (Z1310)

Paper Pack - Hooligans (X7129B)

Cardstock - Black, Lagoon, Pear, White Daisy

Stamp Sets: Chocolate Alphabet Small (D1296), Troublemaker (WOTG Set)
