SAG Challenge # 5 - Product

When the SAG girls suggested I do a product challenge, I automatically knew which product I would choose...STAMPS! Of course this is partly because that is what I sell, but also because I don't use stamps on my layouts very often at all so I knew it would also be a challenge to myself!

So as I promised on the SAG blog, here is another layout using stamps.

On this layout, the hearts are stamps. They are from the I {Heart} hearts stamp set and I love how they turned out. I have used the 3 heart punch to punch them out (this punch co-ordinates perfectly with this stamp) and then I've stuck them on the layout. It was all a very quick and easy process. I think they work really well with this layout. I haven't done the text border for awhile so it was good to do it again as I think it adds a bit of interest to the page! It takes a little playing around in Word, but is fairly easy to do. I was really happy with how this layout turned out.

So if you haven't alread, go to the Simple Aussie Girls blog and check out my other layout using stamps along with the layouts from the SAG team. We'd love you to take part in the challenge and I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!

Just a reminder if you spend $100 with Stampin' Up! during July (in one purchase) you receive a free gift. Go to my website and click the promotions tab for all the details.
