Good Luck Riley for Neglected Rubber Swap


This card was made for April in our SOTC—Sisterhood of the Traveling Cards—Neglected Rubber Swap.  There are many of us who have stamps that have not seen ink at all or in a long time (note—yes, if you are reading this, it applies to you too!)   So, we each sent someone in our group a stamp or two or three that we have not used in a bit and the recipient was to make a card with that stamp and send that card back along with the stamp.  April sent me three awesome Riley’s to chose from, so I decided to make her a St. Patrick’s Day card!

Image/Sentiment—Good Luck Riley Hanna Stamps; Stampin’ Up So Happy for You

Cardstock—PTI White; Stampin’ Up Garden Green; Reminisce Lucky Me Micro Clover

So, how cute is this??!! What a great idea too - to send some neglected rubber to each other, and then have it returned with a creation! Brilliant idea. Love the colors on this and the DP, your borders, the coloring of Riley - love all of it. You did a fantastic job with this, Barb.

So cute. I don't have any stamps from this moose collection, I should, he is so cute. You are right Barb, there are so many stamps in my bookcase that didn't see ink in years!!!. One of my goals this year was to ink each one of them... we'll see!!!
