Close To My Heart's New Months of the Year Stamp Set Series

There’s something to love about each month and season, so we’re rolling out an entire years’ worth of stamping fun with a 
Months of the Year stamp series!!

With sentiments, icons, and borders for a variety of crafting projects, the stamp sets in the Months of the Year series provide a way to create beautiful artwork for any time of year.

Today, I'm going to show off a few of the ways that the January and February sets can be used, and I have a feeling that once you’ve seen these two, you won’t be able to wait for the rest!!

With every new set comes new opportunities to craft calendar pages, layouts, and so much more!!

Each Months of the Year set comes with a variety of different stamps to aid you as you create seasonally specific artwork all though the year.

Throughout 2021, these stamps sets will be released, two at a time, with each of our bi-monthly catalogs, so you can look forward to the release of new sets through the end of the year!!

Because Close To My Heart serves a global market, we’ve created two stamp sets for each month—one for crafters in the northern hemisphere, and another for artists in the southern hemisphere!!

(Fun Fact: Seasons are reversed between the northern and southern hemispheres!! When someone in the US might be sledding or skiing, it would be a great time to hit the beach in Australia!!)

These stamp sets are not only great to use individually but can also be used to create your own series of artwork along a theme!!

One of the most challenging parts of memory keeping can trying to decide which stories to tell, and where they should be placed.

With a separate set designed for each month of the year, it’s easy to put together monthly scrapbook pages and in no time, you’ll have an entire album telling the story of the past year!!

This adorable Valentine layout is a wonderful example of how the stamps from the February stamp set can be used as perfect accents for the page design.

In this example, it’s easy to see how well the stamps and the paper we used complement each other, even though they weren’t specifically designed to coordinate with each other.

Each Months of the Year set is easy to integrate into your artwork and includes enough variety to mix well with all our paper collections!!

In addition to scrapbook layouts, the Months of the Year stamp sets are also a great tool to use when creating calendar pages!

As you can see here, we’ve used these stamps to add decoration to full-size calendars and smaller perpetual calendars as well!!

The Months of the Year stamp sets will all be available through the end of 2021, so you can order them at a time that works for you, pick and choose your favorites from the series, or get them regularly as they’re released.

No matter when or where you use these stamps, we know you’ll love the beautiful designs and gorgeous artwork you can create with them!!
