God Understands Our Prayers
Hey, friends! It's Jinny here to share a soft, girly, little number to highlight one of Nina's gorgeous, chalkboard sentiments.
I'm a huge fan of the chalkboard trend but wanted to go for a bit of a softer look. So I overlaid a cardstock panel, which had been stamped with flourishes and two sizes of little hearts, with vellum in order to frame the actual sentiment. And just because I like a clean, un-tampered with look to my vellum, I anchored it with machine stitching.
A couple more flourishes, stamped right on the vellum itself, and a simple, embossed butterfly ground the design.
Thanks so much for stopping by, y'all! I hope that I've given you just a bit of inspiration for your own creative times this week. Have a blessed Sunday!

Friend...
Hi there!
I'm Jessica and tt's my turn to share a card with you today that I made with one of my favorite The Craft's Meow stamp sets: Potted Garden, illustrated by Clare Buswell. I just love these flowers in the pail, don't you? I stamped the flower image and added the tag image to the handle along with the 'friend' sentiment from the same stamp set. How clever of Claire to give us several options for that tiny tag! I wanted my card to be a generic card, suitable for any occasion, so I went with the 'friend' sentiment.
The image was stamped in Memento's Rich Cocoa ink and colored with Copics to match the papers (Solid from Stampin Up; patterned from October Afternoon). A bit of dry embossing, some seam binding ribbon, rustic twine, a vintage button and my favorite doily attached with some stitching, makes this card one of my favorites. Gotta love a good floral image, right?
Have a great rest of your day, friends!

To celebrate the release, we're having a blog hop for more inspiration! The hop begins on Amy's blog and links from there. We've provided the entire list here in case there's a break along the way.
One lucky person will win all six stamp sets by making the rounds on the blog hop and leaving comments along the way. We'll pick on of the blogs (which one is a secret!) and then randomly draw a name from all comments left on that blog by 8:00 pm Pacific on Friday, August 23rd. The winner will be announced here on Saturday. Good luck!
The winner of Dream Catcher from all comments left on yesterday's post is...

Introducing Potted Garden & Cottage Garden!
Hello, stampers! Welcome to the first day of our August release extravaganza! We're releasing SIX new stamp sets for your paper crafting pleasure on Wednesday, August 21st, and the previews start today! If you're a flower lover, you're going to love today's two sets: Potted Garden and Cottage Garden... both are amazingly versatile! Take a look at what our talented designers have created with them...
Edited to add: These are the first two of the three stamp sets designed by Clare Buswell, to debut here at The Craft's Meow! We had a bit of a mix-up last night when the posts went live. Due to crossed wires, there were two versions of today's post prepared, one with that information and one without. Unfortunately, the one without went live. We are VERY excited about Clare's illustrations... just wait until you see the entire sets. Swoon!
I have a set of each Potted Garden and Cottage Garden to give away as prizes. All you have to do for a chance to win one of these sets is leave a comment on this post by 8:00 pm Pacific tonight. I'll draw the winners and announce them in tomorrow's post. Good luck!
I hope you'll join us tomorrow when we preview our next newest stamp set: Choose Hope. (I think you're going to love it!) See you then!
