Welcome to our September Release! I LOVE this time of year, so goes along with me loving this release maybe a tad more thank other release, lol!

We will be giving away a $50 gift certificate to one lucky commenter from each day! total of three winners! Be sure to check the Big News forum on StampTV a few days after the hops to see the winners. Ok now for what you came here for!! :D
Up first today Melanie's set, Men Of Faith
Here is what I have done with this set:
When first seeing this set, I knew I had to put a cross charm in his hands! I stamped the image with versamark, then heat embossed in clear. All done on Kraft cardstock form Gina K. of course! Now this next card, I debated whether to show or not because Billy said it looked like the dude was in prison...haha! Here it is though:
I little different view trying to show the inside:
Ok, next up is a set by Rina, Mandala Maker
This awesome set can be used with the Wreath Maker, but it can also be stamped free hand in OH SO MANY WAYS!
Omg ive only barely touched the surface in creating with this set! For this, I colored in some of the details with white gel pen and a gold marker also. I cut out a few of the leafy looking images and inserted some red cardstock to give it some pop! Added a bit more red accents and called it done! so fun!!
