I am starting Stamp of the Month Classes each month. Each month, this Class will focus on a specific stamp set and we'll make 4 projects using that Set.
The first of these Stamp of the Month Classes will be held on Saturday, July 13 at 3 p.m. and will focus on the Label Love Set and matching Artisan Label Punch.
There are 4 ways you can participate:
1) Purchase the Label Love Bundle in your choice of Wood-Mount or
Clear-Mount by Sat., June 29. The bundle will be waiting for you at
Class. You'll make your projects and take the products home with you.
Cost of the Class if you purchase the Wood-Mount Bundle is $42. Cost of
the Class if you purchase the Clear-Mount Bundle is $35. You must RSVP
and pay for your Bundle by Sat., June 29 at 9 p.m. Eastern.
2) If you already own the Label Love Set, you may bring your set with
you to Class. Cost if you already own the set is $5. RSVP deadline for
using your own set is Weds., July 10 at 9 p.m. Eastern.
3) You may attend the Class and just use my stamp set and punch. Cost
to use my supplies at Class is $10. RSVP deadline for using my
products is Weds., July 10 at 9 p.m. Eastern.
4) If you are long distance (more than 1-1/2 hours drive) and purchase one of the Label Love Bundles
from me by June 29 at 9 p.m. Eastern, I will mail you the four completed
cards along with your Bundle products for an additional $10.

Welcome to the Best of Brides & Babies Blog Tour hosted by RemARKable Stampers. Enjoy!
I definitely had to pull out the Stamp-a-ma-jig, which many of you know I'm usually too lazy to do, to stamp the sentiment on this first card. I think it was worth it though! What do you think?
Uses Best of Brides & Babies Clear-Mount Set plus Pink Pirouette Classic Stampin' Pad, Smoky Slate Stampin' Write Marker, Smoky Slate Card Stock, Whisper White Card Stock, Pink Pirouette Card Stock, Hardware Clips Essentials, Pink Pirouette 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon, SNAIL Adhesive, Sticky Strip, Stampin' Trimmer, Paper Snips, Craft Scissors, Scallop Trim Border Punch, Clear-Mount Block B, Clear-Mount Block D, and Stamp-a-ma-jig.
This next card was really fun to create as I got to color all the little bears using Markers and the Blender Pens with various brown inks from the pad lids. I stamped the bears in Chocolate Chip Ink onto a strip of Watercolor Paper and let it dry for a bit while working on the rest of the card. I like to use the Watercolor Paper when working with the Blender Pens as it doesn't want to tear and pill like regular card stock can.
Uses Best of Brides & Babies Clear-Mount Set and Label Love Wood-Mount Set plus Baked Brown Sugar Classic Stampin' Pad, Chocolate Chip Classic Stampin' Pad, Crumb Cake Classic Stampin' Pad, Early Espresso Classic Stampin' Pad, Sahara Sand Classic Stampin' Pad, Soft Suede Classic Stampin' Pad, Pool Party Classic Stampin' Pad, Subtles Collection Stampin' Write Markers (Pool Party and So Saffron), Regals Collection Stampin' Write Markers (Island Indigo), Very Vanilla Card Stock, Soft Sky Card Stock, Watercolor Paper, Subtles Collection Core'dinations Card Stock (Pool Party), Stampin' Sanding System, Core'dinations Dust Buddy, Blender Pens, SNAIL Adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals, Stampin' Trimmer, 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch, 1-1/4" Scallop Circle Punch, Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine, Multipurpose Platform, Standard Cutting Pads, Alphabet Press Embossing Folder, and Clear-Mount Block H.
The button on this next card doesn't look nearly so bad in person. Scanning it just magnifies all the little imperfections. There are a few imperfections though because apparently my one cat likes the taste/smell/feel of the Simply Pressed Clay! I dyed the clay before pushing it into the mold by rubbing it across the So Saffron Ink Pad a few times and kneading the color into the clay.
Uses Best of Brides & Babies Clear-Mount Set plus Basic Gray Classic Stampin' Pad, So Saffron Classic Stampin' Pad, Real Red Card Stock, Whisper White Card Stock, Calypso Coral Card Stock, Pool Party Card Stock, So Saffron Card Stock, I Am Me Designer Series Paper, Simply Pressed Clay, Buttons & Blossoms Simply Pressed Clay Molds, SNAIL Adhesive, 2-Way Glue Pen, Stampin' Dimensionals, Sticky Strip, Silicone Craft Sheet, Stampin' Trimmer, Paper Snips, 1" Square Punch, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch, Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine, Multipurpose Platform, Standard Cutting Pads, Fashionable Hearts Embosslits, Needlepoint Border Embossing Folders, and Clear-Mount Block H.
I love to use products in different ways than they might have been originally intended to be used. So, for this last card, I used the bells in the Best of Brides & Babies Set as Christmas bells instead of wedding bells! The sentiment is from the More Merry Messages Set which is still available as a write-in item even though it isn't pictured in the catalog.
Uses Best of Brides & Babies Clear-Mount Set and More Merry Messages Clear-Mount Set plus Real Red Classic Stampin' Pad, Real Red Stampin' Write Marker, Regals Collection Stampin' Write Markers (Garden Green), Real Red Card Stock, Whisper White Card Stock, Garden Green Card Stock, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Delicate Details Lace Tape, SNAIL Adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals, Stampin' Trimmer, Paper Snips, 1" Square Punch, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch, 1-3/4" Scallop Circle Punch, 1-3/8" Circle Punch, 1-1/4" Circle Punch, Clear-Mount Block B, and Clear-Mount Block H.

I've been having lots of fun playing with all my new toys (um, I mean, my new supplies!). I decided that we would focus on monochromatic cards featuring the new In Colors at my Club Classes this month. Here's a little sneak peek at what I've created:
Want to see more of these cards? Then, be sure to check back on my blog starting June 25!
I can hardly wait to let my Club Members make these cards. I'm really pleased with how all five cards turned out!
I absolutely LOVE how this next card turned out! I combined three new stamp sets - Gorgeous Grunge, Feel Goods, and Hello, Lovely - and threw in the "kissing technique" on the ampersand. I did have to use the Stamp-a-ma-jig to line up the words, but it was soooo worth it! Do you like it?
Uses Gorgeous Grunge Wood-Mount Set, Feel Goods Clear-Mount Set, and Hello, Lovely Clear-Mount Set plus Strawberry Slush Classic Stampin' Pad, Daffodil Delight Classic Stampin' Pad, Pumpkin Pie Classic Stampin' Pad, 2013-2015 In Color Stampin' Write Markers (Strawberry Slush), Daffodil Delight Stampin' Write Marker, Strawberry Slush Card Stock, Pumpkin Pie Card Stock, Whisper White Card Stock, Quatrefancy Specialty Designer Series Paper, Pearl Basic Jewels, SNAIL Adhesive, 2-Way Glue Pen, Stampin' Trimmer, Paper Snips, 1" Square Punch, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack, Elegant Butterfly Punch, Clear-Mount Block B, Clear-Mount Block D, and Stamp-a-ma-jig.
That was the subject line of the e-mail I received from my Club Member Shannon Aydukovic the other day! She was so impressed (and so am I!) that her husband Bob asked if he could use her stamps to create these awesome gifts for his Little League team the other day.
Uses Designer Type Photopolymer Set plus Basic Black Classic Ink Pad, Clear-Mount Block G, and baseballs.
How clever is this?! Way to go, Bob! And way to go Shannon for letting him use your stuff!
Here's the card we sent my dad for Father's Day. It mixes some Epic Day This and That products with the new Six-Sided Sampler Set. I love how the designer paper looks like a map. It seemed appropriate since they are now at their Colorado house for the summer. I just hope the wildfires will stay well away from their property!
Uses Six-Sided Sampler Clear-Mount Set and Teeny Tiny Wishes Wood-Mount Set plus Gumball Green Classic Stampin' Pad, Basic Gray Classic Stampin' Pad, Crumb Cake Classic Stampin' Pad, Daffodil Delight Card Stock, Basic Gray Card Stock, Crumb Cake Card Stock, Pool Party Card Stock, Epic Day This and That Designer Series Paper, Regals Designer Buttons, Hung Up Cute Clips, Epic Day This and That Designer Washi Tape, Linen Thread, SNAIL Adhesive, Glue Dots, 2-Way Glue Pen, Stampin' Dimensionals, Stampin' Trimmer, Craft Scissors, Hexagon Punch, Word Window Punch, and Clear-Mount Block B.
I am loving the Label Love Set in the new catalog! It's a really versatile greeting set. I also love the matching Artisan Label Punch. And, I really love that you can buy the set and punch as a Bundle and save 15%!
Here are a few cards I created using this fun set. Enjoy!

I am thinking of starting Stamp of the Month Classes again in July where everyone would purchase the stamp set in advance and then it would be waiting for them to use at Class. In the Class, we would make 4 projects using the featured stamp set. I think the Label Love Set would be a great one for this type of Class. If you would be interested in this Class, please let me know by e-mailing me at michelerey@aol.com or leaving a comment on this post.
