Saturday Stamping

Yesterday I meet with some friends to spend the day stamping.  There were 8 of us... ranging in age from around 10 years to over 70..... Great fun...........  I struggled a bit...  I had printed out a digi image and was paper piecing it and the glue went everywhere so I messed it up... then I stamped some white ink on a black card and although I heat set it, as I picked it up, I smudged it....

Anyway, I did mange to get a few cards completed.   And got some bits half done...

Here is the first card I got done...
Rose Sympathy

Another with Hero Arts Rose.   This is a very CAS card.  I used Fired Brick distress ink to colour the image.  I used a Martha Stewart edge punch to punch the edge.  Hero Arts Sentiment finished it off beautifully.

Here are some photos from the day
I will share more cards later in the week.  I'm doing an ATC swap so will be working on my ATC's this week.

Hope your weekend was a great as mine.

Hi Dawn
I am just catching up with all my favourite blogs after two weeks in France. Love your card and looks like you had fun with your stamping group. I wish there was a group near where I lived!!! My only stamping friends are on line, I would love to meet up and share ideas with someone locally!

I was thinking the same thing as Sally - how fun to get together with friends and stamp. So glad you had a great day, your card is lovely and I look forward to seeing the other cards you completed :)
