Dust Off Your Stash at the Secret Crafter Saturday ChallengeDT WK 133



How is everybody today? have you all had a lovely week? 
So peeps its time to grab a cuppa and lets get crafty.
This weeks Theme was set by the lovely and talented Helen and she would 
like us to Dust Off Our Stash, use something neglected, and old stamp that hasn't seen daylight in a while or some paper you bought and has been sat there waiting to turned into something beautiful, 
and this is my DT inspiration piece
I bought this stamp from Funky Kits a fair few years back now and I think that I have only inked her a few time in those years. She is called Pen Pal and the artist is Elizabeth Bell I coloured her with 
Copic Markers, the back ground paper from Kay and Co designs and they are even older than the stamp
I think I bought them about 5 may be 6 years back lol I used Nesties Labels 8 to frame her then used some jump rings on the corners and used string to attach her to my card.
The Lacey edge is a Martha Stewart punch and the scalloped circle is a Marianne Die, I ran it through a Cuttlebug in a TH Embossing Folder then sanded the card,
and the flower are from my crafty stash.



I have entered this into the following challenges:
Sweet Stamping challenge: Childhood Memories
Paperplay Challenge: Show us your Style (minimal)
Pear Tree Designs 47 : Free For All 

So Peeps thank you so much for stopping by,
and if you need some more inspiration then check out all of my very talented teamies blogs.
I wish you all a safe and wonderful week,
see you at the same time and place .
