Guess what I did just now!!? I STAMPED!!!! And it was FUN!!! Today is the first I've stamped just for fun in nearly a month. Don't get me wrong, doing the things for the silent auction was fun too - but not as fun as this!! :-) This week's Ways To Use It challenge on SCS (
WT155) was to be inspired by music - so of course I *had to* use my friend Diane's DURAN DURAN stamp
again!!!!!! Can you believe she actually has a Duran Duran stamp?? It's been in her possession since the 80's, and it's not likely you'll find one for yourself, so don't bother asking me where to get one! And
Carole even offered up her organs in exchange for this stamp and Diane wasn't interested in negotiating, so don't ask if she will sell it. :-) For this card, I stamped the Fab Five across the bottom & embossed them with "black sparkle" EP. I also used my new SU Sticky Cuts letters and Fine Cosmo glitter - I just *love* this glitter!!! Of course I went straight for the purple - it's sooooo pretty. This card has some SERIOUS sparkle IRL! The cute little XOXO ribbon is from Elsie Flannigan. I have been really bummed about my lack of stamping, so this card definitely made me HAPPY!!!
Speaking of HAPPY - I'm going to have some extremely HAPPY news to share with you in a few days, so please come back and visit again! Have a great weekend!
