Would you like some new rubber? Or maybe some accessories

Maybe you've tried selling your rubberstamps or punches or cardstock on EBay or some other venue ... and you haven't had much luck. Well! Why not try something different?

Pay It Forward (PIF) with those sets or accessories or cardstock that you don't use anymore! Trade it off for something different and new-toyou. All it costs you is the postage to send your items to the person who snags it - what better way to get new stamping stuff?

Try it, you'll like it! LOL

Merry Christmas!


Christmas! Yay!


It's been very busy around our house, getting ready for Christmas and all! Everything is done & so today I can relax ... until it's time to head to my brother's house for our family get together. This morning, I took the time to participate in today's technique challenge seen here: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=309371


It was fun, but it took some practice! I finally figured out that if I held the stamp at arm's length when I misted it that I could better control the amount of water that went on the stamp. I did end up with a few images that I can use on future cards. But for now, this is what I ended up making, a card for my soon-to-arrive great-nephew.
The recipe for this card is:
Paper - White & Night of Navy cs; DP from AC Moore
Ink -Bliss blue (misted color) and CTMH' Moonlight Envy (top color)
Stamps - Oh My Word and Studio G $1 set
Accessories - ribbon and spiral clip
