I haven't stamped anything in over 2 weeks! :( I was beginning to worry. Yesterday while running errands I stopped in Michaels quickly hoping to find something to motivate me. I bought silk hydraengea in a yummy pink/red, but still didn't feel like stamping when I got home. Today I went to Lowe's with DH and I picked up some paint chips. Loved how this berry chip had holes in it, so I decided to make them glitter windows. I'm always a little behind the trends, so this is my FIRST paint chip card! Had a lot of fun searching through a bunch of stamp sets coming up with just the right combo for this. This card is an odd size 6 3/8 x 4 1/2 because the paint chip was a little big and I had a random bright pink envelope (decorated under the card in photo) that fit just right.
Whew - I FINALLY stamped something!!!!! Thanks for looking!

Wow! What a neat application of the glitter windows! Talk about being behind in the trends...I've never made a glitter window yet and I've wanted to for a long time. I even bought the strapping tape. Same with shaving cream, crayon resist, heated pearls...I've got all the stuff...you get the picture!

I was looking for inspiration for my hostess set - Wow I found it! This is really neat. I must admit, I have a supply of paint chips too! I like your smorgasboard background too. Great card! TFS!
