Today is September 10th and is the 9th month of the Stamp What? challenge with the three collaborators you have seen many times in the past--Kelly, Jeanette and me! Kelly came up with the challenge to randomly pick a Stampin' Up set and make a card with that set. Get the dust off of those forgotten Stampin' Up sets!
I decided when this group challenge started to only use the wooden Stampin' Up stamps that are on my bottom shelves. So this month, I randomly picked a set called Stella Stamper. She is an oldie as the year 1999 is on the box. I remember that she was a hot item on eBay and I think I found her at a stamping rummage sale--Score!
I inked Stella up and colored her with my Copic Sketch Markers. I die cut the image with Whimsy Stamps Stitched Rectangles. There are quite a funny sentiments in the set and I inked up one of them. The background paper is a fun pattern also from Stampin' Up called Follow Your Art! I added a some pink ribbon as the only embellishment!
Here is the inside of my card:
I like the colorful look of my card this month and I hope you do too. Be sure to check out Jeanette and Kelly's cards--I am sure they have some fun cards with those "oldies but goodies" stamp sets by Stampin' Up!

Barb, I am in awe! I used to own this stamp set (I got it in a bundle of second-hand stamp sets) and never could convince myself to use it because coloring Stella seemed overwhelming. But look at you - you did a beautiful job! And that DP. WOW! It is perfect!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable (fun) card. Thanks for sharing.
