October Stamp of the Month Team Blog Hop

October is here and we're all enjoying a lovely fall, 
but you know what is lurking right around the corner - 
the holiday season! 

It's time to get a new stamp set for your cards and gifts, 
and the October Stamp of the Month 
S1410 Home For The Holidays
will be perfect!

BROOKE is working on her holiday projects - 
maybe you have arrived from her blog. 
If not, start here and click through for great ideas!

I used the Cricut Artfully Sent Collection,
item # Z3017, to make some cute holiday cards.

The first is a pop-up card stamped with 
"home for the holidays" and made with
X7187B Yuletide Carol Paper Packet
Z2012 Sequins Gold Assortment
 


Next is a 5"x7" overlay card stamped with 
an ornament stamp from the SOM and made with
X5770 Glacier Cardstock
1385 White Daisy Cardstock
Z1829 Glitter Paper Black & Grey
Z1752 Sparkles Clear Assortment
Z1921 Baker's Twine Neutral Metallic Assortment


Another 5"x7" pop-up card featuring the 
polar bear stamp from the SOM and made with
X7188B Snowhaven Paper Packet
1386 Black Cardstock
Z1752 Sparkles Clear Assortment
Z1933 Washi Tape Ruby Chevron
Z1932 Washi Tape Silver Geometric


This is a super fun sleeve card! 
Add the  tag stamp from the SOM and your card is 
ready for gift-giving - no wrapping required!
1386 Black Cardstock
1385 White Daisy Cardstock
Z1921 Baker's Twine Neutral Metallic Assortment
Z1752 Sparkles Clear Assortment
The sleeve card holds a 4"x6" photo or tag. 
I used a tag, which you could stamp on, 
or write a message on if desired.
On the back of the tag you could affix a gift card, cash, 
a lottery ticket or tickets to a sporting event or performance!

Here's a border card featuring 
the ornament stamp from the SOM.

I love this new Cricut Collection! 
In addition to the card types shown here, 
there are also fun scene cards, 
pocket cards to use with picture My Life, 
envelopes with liners, 
and tons of cute icons for cards, scrapbooking and more!
What cards are you most excited about?

Make your list and check it twice - 
and don't forget to add this versatile Stamp of the Month!
