We are still on hurricane watch here in SE PA, and we still have power, so I was able to get a little extra stamping time in today! I was thrilled to have this card chosen as a winner for the last Inspired By challenge! Woohoo! So of course, I wanted to play again this week because look at this fun inspiration photo:
The clean and simple challenge at SCS was collage style, and I love that as well, so I did a one-layer card incorporating some vintage images with a pink typewriter from Established Elegance:
I stamped my typewriter in Blushing Bride, then using my SU grid paper, I made a mask for the front of my card as well as a mask for the typewriter, and sponged the inside with Sahara Sand ink, then stamped my collage images. A simple saying from Blessings from Heaven and my one-layer card was done!
Praying that everyone is staying safe, warm & dry on the east coast! And thank you to those who have been praying for us…we appreciate it!

ReplyDeleteFabulous LeAnne! I love this style of stamping! So pretty! Gorgeous creating! A few years ago I did something similar, one of the few times I've had something published. Your card makes me want to try my hand at it again! TFS!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness I remember playing with my grandmothers buttons. They were not as fun as those but I still loved sorting them.
ReplyDeleteYour card is gorgeous! Love how the boarder sets it all of. Wow amazing!
WOW - LeAnne,this is gorgeous! So soft and vintagey. I love the collage and the colours you've used here. I don't have all of these stamps, but I sure would love to try to CASE this with what I do have.
ReplyDeletePraying for your safety.
Congratulations on your win LeAnne - this one could be another winner I think! I love your collage and the way you stamped it in neutrals allowing the butterfly and typewriter to pop in pink.
ReplyDeleteWe've been hearing about hurricane Sandy and the devastation it's leaving on the east coast. You are in our prayers.
This is amazing LeAnne.
ReplyDeleteThe master stamper strikes again! Gorgeous!
