The bold sentiments in the January Stamp of the Month, Everyday Magic, can totally stand alone! I just love the script font. I kept this card super simple and let the sentiment stand out! I embossed my Sangria panel with the Stitched Circles Embossing Folder. After embossing, I rubbed some super fine sand paper over the top to allow the white core to show through. If you have yet to try Close To My Heart cardstock, it is two toned and has a white core. The cardstock features one shade on the front and a lighter shade on the back. The core is white to allow you to create special effects. The two tones are great for finding just the right color for your project. Here is a sampling of the colors available-
You can purchase the cardstock in a variety of ways: single bulk packs, coordinating packs and custom packs of 12 to 24 sheets. You can view all of the cardstock options here. Don’t forget, you can add the January Stamp of the Month to a qualifying order for only $5! This set is perfect for sending out positive vibes in the New Year-
