After a very busy weekend I found a little stamp time last night. It was late albeit, but stamp time anyway. I spent the early afternoon shopping for clothes to take to Florida, and when I got in, I found that the puppy had gotten into some paper in the studio and chewed the packaging. So, needless to say, I had to do a little reorganizing while I was doing laundry. When it was all said and done, I had a clean studio and the ink was beginning to filter through the air and stamps calling out. What was a girl to do, but stamp!

While I was contemplating what to do, it occurred to me that another sample using Hot Stuff from My Favorite Things wouldn’t hurt a bit. Since I am going to the Stampfest in Orlando, and I am going down to meet Kim of MFT, and I do have a bag of sample cards to take to her, one more wouldn’t hurt! All the background stamping is done with MFT Behind the Scenes. The black scalloped circles and ribbon slider are made with the Cuttlebug.

I can’t believe I finally stamped a few cards tonight. I’ve been so busy this week getting the remainder of my projects done for the Dirty Dozen Gallery that I’ve left a few things slide. I also haven’t felt well part of this week so I was a little surprised when I got a second wind and hit the studio tonight.

I wanted to finish up some cards with the new Fright Night set from My Favorite Things, and I’m pleased with the way they turned out. Both the images were colored with Copic ciao markers, which I’m still learning how to use. The polka dots on the Happy Haunting card are one of the backgrounds from the MFT Behind the Scenes set. They are simple cards actually, black and white with just the coloring of the image and some hint of color in the ribbon.
