Share the Love ... its' the name of a CTMH stamp set but it's also amazing advice for life!! This adorable stamp set supports Operation Smile. It's ONLY available in February for $17.95. $7 of that purchase goes to those who need medical assistance with their smiles. How awesome is that? I love knowing I can create AND help someone I don't even know.Maybe you came here from I Didn't Have Potatoes where you saw a colorful creation by Marg. OR maybe you're just getting started. No matter which, please take the time to hop all the way through to see what all of the amazing Rose Blossom artists have created. It's sure to be a great selection of ideas. I've seen a couple of sneak peeks so I know what I'm talking about!
Sometimes there are products that give you so many ideas you don't know where to start. This stamp set is one of those, so I turned to one of my favorite ways to get focused ... challenge blogs. Here's what my friends in cyberspace helped me come up with.
Once I put this whole thing together I didn't want to put journaling on it. OK, let's be honest, there's really no room for journaling here! I love to tell the story though and my scrapbook readers know to look further just in case. Here's a close up of the spot where it's hidden ...
Products used ... Share the Love Stamp Set, La Vie En Rose Paper Pack, La Vie En Rose Assortment, Pomegranate Ink, Pomegranate Fundamental Assortment, and Beautiful You Picture My Life.
