Wednesday Stamper...Fleur De Lis card

I wanted to enter last week but couldn't come up with the right stamp...this week the theme is Fleur De Lis and I couldn't find and appropriate stamp either but got a little creative and found some card stock with Fleur De Lis image (from K&Co)...I background stamped a beautiful flourish from Crafty Secrets "Cherub"Clear art stamps in ColorBox chalk olive pastel ink...I added some fun image stickers from Crafty Secrets Heartwarming Vintage collection "Wonderful Women" and finished off edging the card with the olive pastel ink and added some ribbon trim... Oh, I almost forgot---the inside says "Your support means everything"...Thanks for looking!

Wednesday Stamper...Auto's




I have been in a creative frenzy and haven't caught my breath to post as promised...I have been playing with my new Clear Art Stamps from Crafty Secrets ! If you haven't tried these type of stamps yet I encourage you to give them a try...I LOVE them!!! They are so easy to use and to store... All you do is peel them up from their storage sheet and stick them to an acrylic block!

I found the perfect outlet for trying these stamps out called Wednesday Stamper...
Each week they post a challenge...then you create something using their theme and at least one stamp...this weeks challenge is Automobile...
so here is what I created... a fun ATC!


One thing that I did was to stamp the birds on vintage paper, then cut them out...and chalked them! Text is from a vintage book...
I'll have more to post soon!
