Stars and Stamps

Have you been to the new OWH blog for card makers, Stars and Stamps? It's got great ideas and now a challenge. I loved the sketch because it came with a few measurements and this card came together in no time (which I need midweek!). I combined the sketch with the ColourQ challenge: Real Red, Bashful Blue, Taken with Teal, Basic Black, and white. I'm glad to play along for the first time, thanks for the inspiration Arielle!

I love this sentiment, which I haven't used before today. It's SU but I don't know what set it's from. When I was in Maine over the summer I was antiquing with my mom and one of our favorite stops had a booth filled with random rubber stamps. So I picked up one that would be versatile. I guess I need to start using it more often!

Smiles,

  1. So cute Caryl! I have not had much time to check out the other USDT blogs, but I've really enjoyed looking at yours tonight! I loved the 2 bags you did... I really wish I sewed... I've been thinking of buying a sewing machine - my hubby would probably kick me out though- lol! Thanks so much for playing along with the colourQ this week!!! ~Arielle
