Outdoor Borders Blog Hop

Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!  We will be featuring June's SOTM, which is Outdoor Borders, a set of 9 fun border stamps.  

If you have come here from ScrappinKaty's Blog, you are on the right path! The blog hop is a great big circle, so you can start here and work your way all around.  If you get lost along the way, you’ll find the complete list of participating consultants on Melinda’s Blog. 

This month we have 16 Close To My Heart Consultants sharing their creations using this month's SOTM and other great CTMH products on their blogs. This is simple to do - just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one! Here we go!

Of course I was immediately excited about the hiking themed borders- perfect for our recent day out at the trails of the Adventure Park.

I have created this double page layout by pairing the Outdoor Borders SOTM with the Lovely Paper Packet. The Toffee patterned paper made a great backdrop for my photos, paired with Sage Cardstock. 

Here is a closer look at the left hand side- I paired this page with some Cricut Cuts from the You Are Here collection as the hiking boot matched the border! I also added in the adorable wooden bunny from the Hillside Cottage Shapes to keep the wood/nature theme going throughout my pages.

As well as using the 'over the hill' stamp across the whole 12 inch strip,  I added some sentiment titles to my page by chopping up the words. Look how cute those small boots are paired with the Cricut cut boot!

The right hand side is a mirror image of the first, with more Hillside Cottage Shapes and Cricut cuts to help the theme. I cut all of the Cricut cuts using Sage, Toffee and Espresso Cardstock. 

I added more of the border words by cutting a strip- the back to nature was stamped in Espresso ink and I love that the little tree matches my Cricut cut trees!

The full 12 inch border features again on the right hand side, which I stamped onto the Sage cardstock in Evergreen ink. It is such a fun way to create an easy border! Once again, a few wooden shapes and Cricut cuts were added to the page.
