Flock Together April 2017 Blog Hop

Welcome to the April 2017 SOTM Blog Hop featuring the stamp set Flock Together. This month there are almost 20 bloggers sharing projects they created with the CTMH Stamp Of The Month. If blog hopping is new to you, we try to keep it easy: just keep clicking on the link to the next blog (typically near the bottom of the post) to visit the next stop. Our blog hop is circular so visiting the next blog will take you back to where you started.

You should have arrived here from ***Sheila's Stamping Stuff by Sheila Bennett***. If you get lost along the way, Melinda Everitt keeps a list of participants on her blog at If You Bling It.

When I saw the birds in this stamp set, I immediately thought of a photo I took on vacation in Canyonlands National Park. I saw a flock of birds that looked very similar.

I stamped the Sweet Leaf before tearing the paper. The bird on the left was stamped with Cashmere; the bird on the right with Saddle. The hearts were first stamped with Pomegranate, then with VersaMark and heat embossed. I used the Journaling Pen on the eyes to make them stand out a bit more.

Before you head to ***Jean McNulty's Stamping Maui***, the supplies I used to create my project are listed below.
