This week's challenge from Sharon (notimetostamp) is to use your new Christmas toys. Well, my mom gave me a HUGE bag of used misc stamps (at least 70) -hey, they are new to me! LOL! Some good, some a little funky. I found a girly girl stamp set on foam that I thought had potential, so I tore the red rubber off and mounted on cling. Presto! A set of 12 great stamps! The sentinment is from Hanna Stamp, What Would Hanna Say.
I used my fav layout of late (also inspired from Sharon) using the small embossing folders creating a trio of boxes at the bottom. This great ribbon is May Arts and is so cute! I put little gems (from the nail section of the dollar tree) on the shoe and purse. I used my Spica clear sparkly pen on all 3 images, can't really see in the pic.
My only complaint on this card is the sentiment is stamped crooked!!! Agh, hate it when that happens, but it's hard to stamp above the embossed parts, the paper puckers! Oh, well, still cute. TFL.

I also really love that striped ribbon -- you have reminded me that I do have a bag of that ribbon here, somewhere!!! So glad you played and shared -- thanks much!!!

Very cute!! Don't you just love those little folders after seeing what Sharon did with hers!!!! Great colours and ribbon and I love the stamps you used!! TFS
What a great card and colors! I LOVE the ribbon, so cute, and teh way you used your CB envelopes! What a great idea! I learned something above re: ripping the foam mounted stamps and moving them to cling. I have to find cling and try that out. Thanks for the insight!
