*This is my THIRD, yes THIRD post today...Scroll down to see the other loveliness from InStyle Stamps and Lindsay's Stamp Stuff.*
Hi Everyone,
Because I had so many other post commitments today, I really wanted to wait until tomorrow to post my AMBER INK project, but the excitement would not be contained!
Why? Well, today marks the release of the Mod Kitchen set of stamps that Amber so generously designed using my baby speck of an idea after I won the challenge at AmberINK's INKcredible 21 Day Challenge. Seriously, she took what was a mere amoeba, germ, teeny tiny microbe of a million blatherings on my part, and made made them into FANTASTIC sets of stamps! Yes, that is plural. There is a set of great kitchy, kitchen items that match my favorite Hostess with the Mostess set, AND an awesome set of retro greetings, named Say it like it's 1959, that pair up with these cutie appliances. Do you like digi? Yes, they come in digi. Do you like clear stamps? Yes, they come in clear too! You MUST look now! Go ahead, I'll wait.
See why I'm excited? Ok, on to my first card. I knew I wanted to make this the moment I saw the image of the cute little fan. When I mentioned to Amber how much I loved it, and wanted to pair it with the image of the mailbox from the set Hope, Popcorn and Wine, she even included the the Fan Mail sentiment in the new Say it Like It's 1959!
TA-DA!
Here is a close up of the sentiment and the little envelopes that I made as embellishments. They are just tiny rectangles topped with a tiny triangle and a bit of highlighting from a gray Copic marker.
So, I think this will be a swell Valentine for someone that I think highly of...Right now Amber and Pam (Yes, there is a team at Amber Ink) are pretty much at the top of my list; For many, many reasons too numerous to mention and way beyond these fabulous stamps.
Stop by the Amber Ink blog to read more, and get the list of the fantastic design team (aka Torch Bearers) who have also made grand creations with the new releases this month...
Aloha Everyone ;)
