Welcome to my Shopping Our Stash project for Challenge #2 - using your oldest stamp set...this one is one of my oldest, but I may have even older ones hiding in buckets somewhere. This one is from the Stampin up catalogue from 2003. It is very versatile and I have actually used it tonnes...on this card, I used 6 different stamps from the stamp set with some masking to connect them all. Haven't done much masking lately, but it turned out okay. The bling is all from our local dollarama and the flowers are primas...yes, I broke down and USED my prima flowers..(hear the sobs...). The ribbon has been in my ribbon drawer for so long because it was too pretty to use....not anymore...and the red velvet paper in the background is leftover from a Christmas scrapbook page in 2005...time to use it up! This card measures 4.25" x 11" and does not fit in a standard business size envelope (just fold an 8.5" x 11" paper in half the long way and voila!), even though in my head I thought it would.... Hope you like what you see and will join in with this challenge....plus, we won't really know if it is the "Oldest" stamp you own...so pick an oldie and play along!
