Addicted to Stamps at Addicted to Stamps and More!

By
The new challenge this week over on Addicted to Stamps and More is actually - Addicted to Stamps! I decided to take this literally and actually added stamps to card - take a look


Here is a close up of the 'stamps'


I used a small metal die to create my stamps and matted and layered black card stock and my stamped images.
The background paper was some So Saffron DSP, it was over stamped in So Saffron and Crumb Cake ink and the edges sponged too.
Flat backed gems coloured with a permanent marker were also added.

Stampin' Up Materials
Stamps: Fresh Vintage (retired)
Inks: So Saffron, Crumb Cake
Card Stock: Whisper White, Basic Black
Paper: Subtles DSP
Other Non Stampin' Up: Metal Die, Flat Backed Gems
(All current Stampin' Up items can be ordered through me and delivered direct to door, or you could join one of my Stampers 6 Clubs. For all the relevant details please see the top tabs - thank you).

Please do stop by the challenge blog and see all the other DT cards - we are all Addicted to Stamps this week! Bye for now - Jacqueline xx

Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr
