National Stamping Month Blog Hop


September is National Stamping Month.  I think we should call it INTERnational Stamping Month but we’d have to change the acronym NSM.  With that we have a special Blog Hop featuring the exclusive NSM stamp set.  If you have come here from {Heather’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: http://ifyoublingit.blogspot.com/p/stamp-of-month-blog-hop-list.html.
This year’s National Stamping Month we’re celebrating Close to My Heart’s 30’s birthday with #30YearsOfHappy.  There’s 30 stamps to celebrate too!  It’s FREE when you place a $30 STAMP order this month.  (It has to be stamps, since this is National Stamping Month). 
Here’s what the set looks like.  Isn’t it adorable?1409-cc-nsm-b

I ended up creating this adorable treat bag that's isn't so boo-ish with our stamps and the Cut Above™  treat bags that just came out!



I didn't use the stickers that were enclosed with the bag kit.
I stamped the #30yearsofhappy on white cardstock and punched it out with my 1" punch.  They fit perfectly on the top of a Reece's mini-Peanut Butter Cup with a glue dot!  I'm excited to make up a bunch of these for the team of great people.  (I'm not saying who quite yet!)


They fit so well in these bags!

I used the You Mean the World to Me stamp set.  It's just $9.95 but a workhorse of a stamp set!

If you're looking into getting the treat bags you may also want the Sweet Salutations which was specially designed for these treat bags and are sized perfectly for the circles that are included in the kit.

Don't forget, #30YearsOfHappy is FREE with a $30 purchase in STAMPS and is only available in September 2014!  
When you have $30 of qualifying stamps in your cart, it will prompt you to add the free set to your shopping cart!




Now on to the next blog which belongs to {Lilian Yeh}  There’s about 40 of us participating so you’ll see plenty of inspiration for these stamp sets!  Come back soon!
