This is for the Oldie But Goodie Ways to Use it Challenge today. This Hero Arts Gracious Lady is one on my oldies but goodies. I inked her up with Blackberry Bliss which is very juicy, and then I put on Rainbow Sparkle Embossing Powder by Ranger, and heat embossed her. She is very sparkly, but couldn't get it to show in the photo. And I took about 5 photos, still couldn't see the sparkle. I have had this EP for years, and it wasn't even opened. It still works!
Recently a Alpha Sister shared some things that we realize as we age. Well, I was reminded of one the things she quoted today, as I ruined three panels of paper trying to make a background again with the letterpress. It was "the biggest lie I tell myself is I don't need to write that down, I'll remember it." I didn't remember in what one day the sandwich on the bigshot for that letterpress plate. Ok if you have a letterpress plate, so you don't have to hunt for the youtube, like I had to today, because I will give you the sandwich.

I have to remind myself how to use the letter press plates, I have about 10 of them and don't use them often. Love the colors and that wonderful oldie image. Thank you so much for playing along and bringing this goodie stamp.
