Default WT113 - Small Stamps rerun

Pull them out and dust them off! Today your challenge, (you are going to accept it, right?!) is to find Ways to Use those tricky SMALL STAMPS. It seems that these babies tend to get lost in the drawer and sadly neglected. I've had a few requests for this challenge, especially for ideas using incentive stamps! Sorry I don't have any as I'm not a demo, but "brownie" points to all of you who do have them and use them! If the stamp is around 1.5" square or smaller, I'd classify it as small. Feel free to pair them up with larger stamps and whatever you wish! You can also get creative and make a papercraft project other than a card if you wish.

Please remember to put WT113 in your keywords section and post a link back here so that we can all enjoy your designs. I can't wait to see all your ideas!

If you need ideas, you can also check out the original small stamp challenge WT75 from August 2006

For my card design...

Simple Sweet Pea

Wishing you all a fabulous day and to my fellow Canadians...a safe and happy Victoria Day long weekend! Happy Stamping!

Small stamps -- I'm pretty sure I probably have several small stamps that I've NEVER used! I'll give it a shot when I get home from work.

Oh my gosh -- I can't believe it -- I'm ahead of the game for once in my life!!! I uploaded a card last night before bed -- the rocking horse in only 1 1/4" wide, so it qualifies for today's challenge -- so I edited the keywords to include it -- hope that was OK? Here it is:

You mean we're supposed to actually stamp with those tiny stamps? I thought they were just to fill up the stamp box and make it more fun when you drop the open box on the floor! bwaahahahahaha!

Oh, man! I hope I get time to play today! I am off to my mom's in about an hour to start pricing GOBS of stamps/supplies that we are selling at a stamp sale in a few weeks. Maybe I'll get to stamp after dinner tonight. Can't wait to see everyone's creations!

awesome Julia - I've had a project I've been meaning to do and it will fit perfectly for this challenge. It will have to wait until after work and soccer though.
