HAPPY MONDAY MY FRIENDS!
I am SO EXCITED TODAY!!!
I have been asked by the wonderfully talented Gloria Stengel at Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog to be their April Guest Designer! How FABULOUS is that!!! Let's get started . . .
Challenge #5 Pick a Stamp, Any Stamp!
You don't
have to be a card maker to hoard stamps! With the popularity of
pocket-style scrapbooking (Project Life and Photo Freedom) and the
explosion of journaling stamps on the market, many scrapbookers have
also become stamp hoarders. Digital stamps are more popular than ever. I
am sure that most of us have at least one stamp in our stash! You may
"collect" wood mounted stamps, clear stamps, cling rubber, or even
digital stamps! Get one out, dust it off, and make it the STAR of your
project! We want to see a stamp (sentiment, word art, image, etc.) on
your project! Feel free to use more than one stamp, but you must have AT
LEAST ONE stamped item on your project.
Over $100 Value - Product is NOT included

stampers, crafters and papercraft enthusiasts for over 20 years. One of
the earliest “art stamp” companies, Hampton has transformed over the
years to become a complete provider of creative products such as stamps,
inks, papers, kids crafts, stationery, scrapbooking supplies, and card
making accessories for crafters of every age and skill level. We focus
on working together with other companies through strong, personal
relationships and licensing partnerships to consistently bring fun,
inspiring products to market. We have a portfolio of brands including
Hampton Art™, Studio G™, Diffusion, Ditto™, and our latest addition, Ki
Memories®, acquired in 2012. Our products can be found via most national
craft retailers at over 5000 stores across the US and Canada. We also
ship to 20 different countries across the globe. Hampton was acquired
by National Spinning Co, Inc. of Washington, NC, our current home, in 2008. For more information, visit our Website. If you've seen my recent post sharing my 'crafting cave' you would have seen that I have a LOT of STUFF! Stamps of various types included. Since the theme of this challenge blog is 'Craft Hoarders' I dug around and would you believe I have an entire drawer full of LaBlanc stamps that have never even seen ink! Yikes! So that was my STAMP OF CHOICE for today's creation.
Isn't she pretty and so vintage (love that!)
My favorite color is PURPLE and with Easter on the way I thought it was the perfect color for today's card. Here's a peek at the inside of my card as well as the beautiful corner ribbon treatment. Graphic45 design paper is one of my all time favorites so of course that was my first choice to go along with this pretty lady!
