For our September deadline projects, The Stamping Studio design team was given the challenge to use book pages in our designs. I made three cards and a votive candle holder for my projects and used the Flower of The Month stamp set for April, which is a daisy. Daisies have a special place in my heart. My mom's nickname was Daisy Mae, and her birthday was in April......so this is just a sweet stamp set all around!
Boogie on over to The Stamping Studio to see all of the Flower of The Month stamp sets!

Great job on all the projects Wendy. I love that daisy stamp, and the way you used the pages from the book. I think the votive holder is my favorite though.

Wendy, this is a lovely set! The daisy stamp is great, your colouring is fantastic, and I love the colour combo - never ceases to amaze me how well kraft cardstock goes with pretty much all other colours! :) Beautiful!

This is such a beautiful set! Love the colours and the book pages.
I find it really difficult to take pages out of a book. so I got some backround stamps that sort of have the same effect (But not as good as yours!) I love what you made, it is so so beautiful!

So pretty and I like the idea of using actual pages! Maybe I do not need the new PTI text stamp after all LOL!
