August Studio AE from Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Welcome to the July Studio AE from Technique Tuesday Blog Hop!

Each month the Technique Tuesday Studio AE design team create projects featuring the new stamp set. These stamps are available individually ($19.99) or as part of a monthly auto-ship subscription program ($14.99).

This month’s stamp set is called Love This Memory:

DIGITAL SCRAPBOOKER? This set can also be purchased as a digital file via Designer Digitals: Memory Circle Brushes. Love cutting this one with my Silhouette too. Check out a layout I created using these digital files with my Silhouette here.

Here’s a look at my layout:

I love this stamp set.

The story here is that I’m really happy.

And I liked that I was embracing imperfections as I created this page – especially the freehand cutting of the photos and the circles.

Here’s some close up images:

Striped arrow from My Mind’s Eye The Sweetest Thing Label Stickers.

Word stickers from My Mind’s Eye Bright The Sweetest Thing Tiny Word Stickers.

I stamped the circles on white cardstock, hand cut around the stamped area, and inked the edge with the other ink color.

The blue is Colorbox Luxe Metallics Cat’s Eye Classic Pigment Ink Queue and the orange is Autumn Terracotta from Close To My Heart.

Little scallop accent is BasicGrey Paper Cottage Printed Chipboard.

Yellow word stickers are My Mind’s Eye Perfect The Sweetest Thing Tiny Word Stickers.

ALSO | Don’t forget to check out all the new stamps and Story Cards now available. Grab them from Technique Tuesday, Two Peas, Scrapbook.com or ask for them at your favorite local retailer.

    Grids are my absolute favorites. Love how you displayed so many pictures but still had areas of embellishments, as well. This stamp set just may make me an autoship customer! :-)
