Free Stamp from Craft Stamper

I've used the free stamp which appeared on the current issue of Craft Stamper - this wasn't an impulse buy though because I actually have this magazine on subscription.  The image was stamped twice and the moth, or is it a buterfly?? was coloured, glittered and cut out so that I could add some dimension. Background paper is from a Prima scripts pad and all the other elements were made using bits and pieces from my scraps.   A clock die cut using a Marianne die; small 'postage stamp' using a Stampin' Up stamp and matching punch; square behind image was embossed using a script embossing folder, layered onto a Spellbinders large 'postage stamp' style die cut; thank you message stamped onto a Tim Holtz ticket with a bit of splodgy overstamping.

  2. Perfect use of the freebie Val! Mine's still attached to my mag which I've only flicked through so far. Love your card though and that clock die is lovely. I've also been hankering after that particular set of Spellbinders. Wonder how long I can resist now I've seen you use them, lol!
