Hey! Guess what!?!
I’m posting.
and not only that, but i’m POSTING PICTURES OF CARDS I MADE!
Take a gander at the cards we’ll be making at my Christmas Card Stamp a Stack.
Well? What do you think? Okay, ya, i totally CASE’d 2 of them. But they are from 2 of the best stampers out there, so it’s all good. I’ll give the deets on that below. The other 3 were inspired by others, but my own creation- which amazes me that I still can stamp something cute (if i dare say so myself!). And it was… FUN! I am such the “pressure stamper”. heh.
Now- I came up with an idea- maybe other demonstrators already figured it out- but I really wanted “HO HO HO!” for the “Just Beclause” card, instead of “Be Merry”. So I went to the personalized stamp section of the IB&C (page 137) and ordered “HO HO HO!” using the Wedding Special Date one line stamp (#116480). I also thought “Believe” would be nice in that font for the “Dasher” card. So I ordered both! They should be here by Weds so I’ll upload a new version of both cards then. If it hadn’t been for the single stamps available on page 208, it may have never dawned on me to make my own sentiment. I love that SU has started offering single stamps under $10.
