Challenge- Stamps

Hi everyone. Happy Spring! Susan and I are taking over the blog this week and we came up with a fun idea for today's challenge... use 3 or more (yes, three+) of your favorite SC stamps on a page. See? Fun :)

I created this springy layout using Quilting Bee and a few Studio Calico stamps (Hot Air Balloon, Pinwheel, Buttons, Star/Journal Block). I stamped the the pinwheel and buttons on paper to create flowers and the frame & journal lines directly on the Dear Lizzy fabric paper (it worked great!)

{distressed inks used: wild honey, tumbled glass, rusty hinge and barn door}

So get stamping and link your (new) projects here by Saturday, March 27th (EST) for a chance to win a $5 gift card to the SC shop.
