JoyOfStamping

What? Can this be? I actually had time to stamp? Well, actually I had to make time. Ever since the business took off, I have only had time to stamp to make samples for my stamp club. This was fun to actually take time one evening to make 22 of these babies! 🙂

There is a swap group that I am in and I always kick myself if I don’t join the various swaps. These women are amazing. There was a vote as to what kind of a swap we were going to do next and I chose Technique Swap. But, my choice didn’t win. So, when “Please Don’t Go” (sets that we don’t want SU to retire) won, I had to figure out which set to choose. I love the “Do the Hula” set. I used it A LOT when it first came out, but not as much lately. It was fun reviving her. I was kind of stuck for a while, since my creative juices haven’t been flowing too much this year. Well, my favorite technique is the shaker card…. why not just incorporate what I was going to do for the technique swap! 🙂 Hence, the design of the card!

I actually made one very similar when this set first came out, but I just added a blue border around this one. I used my fantastix and dipped them in re-inker to color the hula girl. The flower was stamped with my Pink Passion Craft Pad. It’s really not THIS bright. (My scanner is getting old and my parents took my camera with them to Europe.)

Well, I told myself that I will make more time to stamp. (…. now if I can only find room to WALK in my stamp room! LOL!)
