On a Mission



Good Morning! I have a card to show you that I made for a card drive that Card Cupids had asking for some birthday cards. One of the girls will be celebrating her 15th birthday. I am not sure what 15 year old girls are into since all my nieces and most of the daughters of my friends aren't there yet. I hope this isn't too young for  her. The stamp is from Inkadinkadoo, papers are from my stash, the sentiment is from a Clear Dollar Stamp set and it was colored with Copics.


I am on a mission right now to use some of my older stamp sets, especially my clear ones, because some of them were MIA. Way back in May of 2010 the Nashville area dealt with some major floods. We were lucky, we didn't flood like so many I saw but we did have water come into our downstairs area including my craft area. Fortunately we were home and we just madly threw things into boxes to keep them from getting ruined. My craft area was one of the areas that was hastily packed. I store most of my clear stamps in CD cases and those go into plastic cases. In the craziness of moving everything from downstairs to the upstairs I forgot that my MIL offered to take a few boxes to her house. I knew I was missing some stamps and a couple of other things but I could not find them. Evidently we both forgot about those boxes because they have been over there since. So I found my missing stamps and some socks and a missing shoe. I am not an organized packer under the best circumstances, but that day was insane and all the boxes had random stuff in them. In the next few weeks you might be seeing lots of older stamps make their way onto my new cards!

Have a great day.

I adore ths! I am 56 yeas old, and love it, so I think a 15 year old will love it too. I need to commit to using the stamps and images I have, and not buy more...don't know how long that will last...
