Etsy DT & Jazz Inspiration Card




This is a design sketch from SCS. The inspiration for the card came from Etsy.
I had so much fun with this card. The stamp design is a stamp I got from a Stamp Addicts Club member that pass away in February '08. She was a sparkle queen. Most of the cards she made had sparkle. She was a good person and I will miss her at our stamping gathering. I went a step further and designed the inside. with a birthday sticker and designer paper.

To playing along with the Inspiration Card design go to Ashley's blog to get the directions.

A New Blogger


I'm just figuring out how to 'blog'. I've enjoyed reading other blogs and have subscribed to several. I enjoy most crafts. My favorite by far now is rubber stamping. I started stamping about 10 years ago. My friend and I brought stamps and paper and ink pads not really knowing what to do. We didn't have anyone at the time to help us so that art didn't go very far with us. After that she was invited to a crop and she came back to told me of the wonderful things she had discovered and of course I followed her.

The container to the right is what I made for my Stamping Addicts friend but unable to share it at the December Dinner.
