Current Project - Rubber Stamping


I noticed that my greeting card stash is getting low, so I decided to make some more. 

I loved loved loved how this came out so I wanted to share. So pretty, yah. This will end up making around 20-something individual cards.

These are the stamps that I used. It came in a set.

I'm not sure if I paid full price for the set or if I got it at the swap meet. If you're interested, it's on eBay right now here for $9.95 plus shipping. It's made by Stampin' Up and the set is called Spring Garden.

I used this ink pad for the flowers. I got mine from Fisher Hawaii awhile back. Actually, this is my second one. My first one is so old that it's falling apart. It's my absolute favorite. In fact, I like it so much that I bought inks for the five different colors so that I can re-ink it when it gets too dry.IMG_1369

Here's the finished card.

I also stamped these to make more cards.

j: your cards are always so artistic and gorgeous. Since I got your cards, I've been using them and in today's email society, people love getting one of yours so much. I always say how it's hand made so they know how precious they are and you are right store cards are so pricey. -N

Yes, I wanted to share with you that my family knows where my card stash is and it gets used up. Sadly, I've had to make a lot of sympathy cards lately. 😔 (It's therapeutic for me too.)

Kat, I not really too creative. I steal other people's ideas I find online.

Hahahaha, Celia, you're so busy with all your photo outings to have time anyway.

Susan, I know what you mean about sympathy cards. I kinda have that in mind when I make the cards.

Not yet, Dd. Wanna replenish my supply first.
