A Bushel & a Peck SOTM for June 2018

I'm actually posting!  I haven't been idle crafting, but posting has been a back seat to life...




Here is the stamp set of the Month "A Bushel & a Peck".  Super cute gal.  I can see her colored in winter colors and showing up on a Winter layout.  Or in the fall with the blowing leaves.

With the "I love you a bushel and a peck", this card could be used for an anniversary or Valentine's day.

This stamp set is only available in June 2018, but it's uses far outlast the month.




This is an example made by Close to my Heart using the girl.  They used markers to color the girl, sign, apple, and leaves.

Change the saying to "you're the apple of my eye" and you can give it to your daughter for a thinking of you card or birthday.






I made this card.  The saying could easily be changed to one of the other ones and this card can be given to your son (or daughter).  It is also an example of a thank you card.

I used Splash of Color (D1733) stamp set to create the blotches of color with second generation Peacock (Z2849) ink.  Under the basket there is a Toffee (Z2828) scribble from the same stamp set.

The pattern is from Make it From Your Heart Vol. 4 (9044).  It's pattern #4 that's been rotated 90 degrees and then the banners were flipped.

Nutmeg (X5951) cardstock was sanded and bannered.  The dotted B&T paper the saying is stamped on is from Fresh Air (Z7232B) paper packet.  The bottom striped B&T paper is from the Enchanted Fundamental (Z3352) paper packet.  Glacier (X5979) and White Daisy (1385) cardstock were cut out using the Thin Cuts - Basic Circles (Z3318).  The bushel of apples were stamped using Archival Black (Z3271) Ink on scrap White Daisy, colored with pencils (3505), blended with water using our waterbrush (Z3225), cut out, and (finally) mounted using Thin 3D Foam (Z2060 or Z3341 - thin dots).  Lastly, the Bronze Sequins (Z4029) were added.

What will you create?  Order yours before June 30, 2018!
