RETIRING STAMP SETS FOR THE STAMPAHOLICS

Happy Friday and Welcome!  The Stampaholics have a great Inspirational Challenge today.  Check out this picture – we’re to go “vintage” for this challenge as well.

I decided to use 2 retiring stamp sets for this challenge and pulled out Soft Suede, Poppy Parade and Very Vanilla.

I stamped the flourish from Simple Friendship(113397) on pieces of Poppy Parade and Soft Suede in matching ink and then cut them out with the Postage Stamp Punch.  They were matted with squares using the 1-3/8″ Square Punch.


My nod to vintage is the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder on Very Vanilla.  The greeting comes from a retiring Hostess set called Afterthoughs.  These retiring sets are available until June 30th so it’s not too late to host a party to earn this set.  Email me and we’ll set your date.
