April My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #5 + Giveaway!

MMH Countdown to Creativity

Hello again, kit lovers! This afternoon, Sally is back with a few more ideas for using this month's fabulous My Monthly Hero kit. Sally always loves to find unique ways to use her stamps, and we really love what she came up with today...

For my first card, I used washi tape to block off squares, and filled them in with bits of stamps. Add extra color to deepen the look.

Here's one of my favorite things to do with flower stamps! Stamp on fabric and use your sewing machine to outline portions of the design. This could be made into a pin to wear!

While I had my sewing machine out I added stitching the background panel on this card. I love how the pearls give the center a completely different look.
