This stamp set has coordinating shapes that can be cut from the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge, so I decided to make some ornaments or gift tags.
I used the Art Philosphy cartridge to cut out a few of the ornaments. One great thing about the stamps that coordinate with the various Cricut cartridges is that the cartridge name, image size and page are listed on the stamp carrier right next to the image, making it virtually fool-proof.
I cut out the images, then stamped them with Versamark ink. For two of them I used a colored embossing powder, but for two of them I used clear. After allowing them to cool, I used a sponge to color the two that were heat embossed with clear powder (which allows the paper color to show through). You could do a bunch of different things with these: use ribbon or twine and hang them as ornaments or gift tags, add them as a dimensional element to a layout or card, put a bunch of them on a length of twine to create a garland (you could even use one alone to be a simple bookmark).
Remember, the October Stamp of the Month is only available from October 1st through 31st. Contact your Close To My Heart consultant, or click here to find out how to get this stamp set for yourself.
