Once again it is time for the First Thursday blog hop and contest at Red Rubber Designs. This day is always fun because not only do you get to see new stamp releases but you also get to see several different ways to use the same stamp set as presented by the Design Team. This month's Spotlight stamp set is Lovely Peony.

This set will be available all month at a 40% discount. You can check out all of the other featured stamp sets here.
In anticipation of World Card Making Day on October 6th, the Design Team
is taking on the task of making cards today. Not only are we making a
card but we are also decorating an envelope to match.
On the inside of the card I used a sentiment from the Lovely Peony set as well as the small peony from the focal stamp.
For the envelope, I stamped the Peony, masked it and stamped the background with the same script that I stamped on the card. The address boxes are die cuts.

This month Red Rubber Designs is one of the proud sponsors of the 3rd annual Hope You Can Cling To event at SplitCoastStampers! Each October, SCS partners with the UT MD Anderson Cancer Center for a month long
card drive to benefit those affected by breast cancer. You can find out more about this event here.

Would you like a chance to win the Lovely Peony stamp set? All you have to do is leave a comment on each Design Team member's blog. One name will be chosen from the "mystery" blog. I wonder which blog that will be! Contest ends Sunday, October 7th at midnight CDT.
