National Scrapbooking Month Taste of Summer Blog Hop


Have you heard?  May is National Scrapbooking Month and Close To My Heart is celebrating with a Taste of Summer!  To inspire you with a bit of this sweet sample, over 30 Close To My Heart consultants are sharing some tasty artwork that will surely inspire you!   If you arrived here from Melinda Everitt's blog you are on the right track!  If you are just getting started, don't worry, the hop is a big circle so when you get back to me, you have visited all the blogs!  If you get lost along the way, you can see the entire list of hoppers HERE.

I've created several layouts and cards with the Taste of Summer paper pack and coordinating stamp set.  I have chosen the following layout to share for the hop:




















For this layout, I also used the Documenting Moments (D1647) stamp set.   White Shimmer Trim (Z3024) and Pink Glitter Gems (Z1807) make great accents for this paper.

During the month of May you can purchase the exclusive Taste of Summer paper pack for $8.95. Add the coordinating stamp set for $17.95!  
Visit my website at www.stampinheaven.ctmh.com and order yours today!


Now it is time to hop over to Donna Digby's blog and see what she has created!
