I've gone way, way back this week for Judith's Forgotten Friday challenge because earlier in the week I was searching for stamps to use on another challenge and dug out a set by Paper Artsy which was given away as a subscription gift with Craft Stamper years ago. I cannot remember actually using this large stamp before so decided to give it an inking today to make a 'man' card.. Background paper is from a Basic Grey pad which I've also had for years and this was overstamped with bits and pieces from the Paper Artsy set. The ticket was die cut using a Tim Holtz Sizzix die and that was stamped with words from Imagine that - the wings were made using a stamp from Maya Road. This challenge is brilliant for making me look through my stash for neglected items to make sure they don't remain completely forgotten. Take a look at Judith's blog for some great inspiration with both forgotten items and really new things like the Christmas stamps (and others) from Chocolate Baroque as she is a member of their Design team.
A really super Man card Val. I love the sepia look to it. Congrats on coming first with the Blue and Black challenge.

What a find (or remember) fabulous stamp Val. I love the ticket die and sentiments both on my wish list. I'm off to HSNW next W/E ... so who knows what might pop into my basket!

Hmm - think I've got this stamp somewhere as well. Great card Val; love the wings. BTW I hadn't seen Flitter before but it certainly gives a great result and means you can stamp with it which is a huge bonus.
ReplyDeleteHi Val, I got this Paper Artsy set as a subscription gift too, we must have subscribed to Craft Stamper at around the same time! I don't think that I've used this one either. Great male card, and I love the embellishments that you've added. Thanks for joining in again this week, Judith xx
ReplyDeleteVery striking. I couldn't take my eyes off those wings with that metal embellishment.
