Happy Monday.... I have an announcement today!
I have joined up with the ladies on the Vintage Stamping Challenge!! You know how I love vintage!! The team works with stamps by the Flonz Craft! Flonz has a fantastic assortment of vintage themed clear stamps!! ---Fashion, Gibson Girls, cars, children, etc....
Each monthly challenge is sponsored by Flonz Craft with a $20 gift certificate.
The current Vintage Stamping Challenge #26 theme is:
Anything but a Card
Make any project -except a card-- using stamping (does not have to be vintage)
For my first Design Team project, I used one on the Gibson Girl images (love them!!)

Instructions:
