1 + 12 Thrives in '25: June!

 

Hi friends!


Down. to. the. wire!

I am just barely squeezing in my June card

 for my personal card challenge!


Once upon a time, I had an idea to take ONE stamp - 

and ONLY one stamp - 

and use it once a month.

This is my 7th year of this challenge!




The idea?

We spend so much on our crafty supplies 

and often would get a stamp/die/product and use it.

Just once.

So to challenge myself to use my products more than once,

 I came up with

One (stamp) Plus Twelve (months) of cards!




 For 2025, I am using Alex Syberia Designs Close At Heart

from the Stamptember collab with Simon Says Stamp.

Since it's June, I went with a rainbow theme!

#ally



 I invited my dear friends Barb and Jeanette to join me

and you can see on their blogs what they chose as well!



                     I'll be back with the July card in a few days :)

Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Stunning work Kelly - I love that you make these fabulous backgrounds and then stamp directly over them, rather than colouring your stamped image
