CTMH July 2013 Stamp of the Month: Sweet Life

The Close To My Heart July 2013 Stamp of the Month is Sweet Life.

If you enjoy making baked goods from the fresh fruits we are able to harvest (or purchase) in the summer, this stamp set is perfect for putting a little tag or gift card on the goodies you might share with friends and family. It would also make great cards and I also see these stamps used on a summer wreath. To obtain a list of products used to create the above items and suggested techniques, please see the current Stamp of the Month page (ideas for previous months can be found on the left side of that page).

Sweet Life is an exclusive D-size stamp set of 9 stamps that you can only purchase during the month of July 2013. The stamp set can by yours for $5 when you place an order of $50 or more in qualifying Close To My Heart Products (or you can purchase it for $17.95).

Recommended CTMH My Acrylix® Blocks: 1" x 3 1/2" (Y1002) and 3" x 3" (Y1006).

The Patriotic Stamp Sets that debuted June 1 are available to purchase throughout the month of July. See the [New] Patriotic Stamp Sets post of June 6 for more details. Sales of the My Acrylix^® Courage (B1437), My Acrylix^® Home of the Brave (D1576) - USA themed and My Acrylix^® Strong and Free (D1575) - Canada themed stamp sets benefit the USO ($3 of the Courage stamp set and $5 of the Home of the Brave and Strong and Free stamps sets).

In July you can "Work the Workshop" and save 50% off the Workshops On The Go® Canvas Art Kit. The best news - there are no other purchase requirements and no minimum purchase. The only thing to remember is the Kit could sell out before the end of the month so if you really want one, please do not hesitate to place your order.

The Chantilly, For Always, Surf's Up and Tommy Paper Packets will be available in the Autumn/Winter 2013 Idea Book, but the Workshops on the Go® that use these paper packets will not be carried in the next Idea Book. Also Later Sk8r, Claire, Buzz and Bumble will not be available in the next Idea Book - in fact, all of those paper packets have already been claimed.
