This is my card for today's limited supplies challenge. We were to make a card using stamps and embellishments that we have not used in a very long time.
This is my story!
1. This little scarecrow was probably one of the first stamps that I purchased from Close to My Heart when I was first introduced to stamping.
2. The leaf stamps, the tag stamp and the sentiment followed suit. I have not used them in years and years! I can remember making cards using all these stamps together a very long time ago. Although, I have CRS disease (can't remember sh*t!) so don't hold me to it.
3. I also used my old crimper. Remember when this was the hot new tool and everyone was buying the bright orange and blue crimpers?
4. Once again I altered another acrylic box, I tell ya I am addicted to these things! They are so fun and you can put stuff in them that you want protected like fragile wheat!!!
5. I glued a little piece of that spongy green stuff that floral shops use to stick flowers in behind the leaf to hold the wheat in place.
6. Okay, so this in not mailable unless packed in a box but then so what else is new? Snort!

Your versatility and creativity with these acrylic boxes is a delight to see! I love how you added the wheat to the scarecrow. Maybe you have CRS but you sure remember how to create with originality! Well done!

This is way too cool, Cindy! This isn't a card... it's wall art! Love the wheat! How clever to include that in this fall project! Love everything about it... !!!
