For my project using the CTMH Home Sweet Home Stamp of the Month and the paper packet called Clementine and some new amazing products from the new Idea Book for Spring/Summer 2013 I created 2 wall signs. 

For the top sign I used the Pigment inks in Saddle and Twilight to create the stamped image on the chipboard. For the details I used the beautiful Clementine Complements Canvas Shapes and the NEW Wooden Mini-Medley Accents. 

 

In this photo you can see the details even on the mini-clothespins! So cute!

 

 On this second sign I made a photo mat using the Clementine Papers and more of the Canvas Shapes.
