JustRite Papercraft May Release

JustRite Papercraft's previews of their May stamp set releases continue today. If you missed the previews last week, you can find everything over on the JustRite blog. Today's stamp set is Summer Words: This set is perfect for all your Summer crafting needs, from cards to scrapbook pages, and of course, what I'm partial to -- calendars!

In this case, I inserted the month of June and quickly hand trimmed the frame. The pretty green medallion piece is from another new JustRite stamp set debuted on Friday, Botanical Medallions & Banners. The great lacy/ironwork border on the right is from another new May set, Classic Art Deco Lace Edges One, which coordinates with Spellbinders Classic Edges Two Edgeabilities dies -- makes a quick and easy accent!
