Special Stamps

Simply...Branches


Autumn is when all the leaves are
turning shades of gold, orange and rich red colors!

Once the leaves are gone there is the 
beauty of the branches... some with berries nestled on the branch.

Do you ever have the experience when you are
in a store or on-line shopping and 
a stamp just calls out to you?

This happened to me while I was in the 
Seattle area at a wonderful retail store


The Wildberry Branch Stamp from Memory Box 
and the sentiment made for Impress...
I had to purchase and start coloring.

Hint of Zig Wink of Stella Brush on the Purple Berries
A few days ago I was blogging and thought I 
would check a few Card Challenges.

Then I saw the Sketch Challenge from Mojo Monday
and thought it would be perfect for my special stamps!
(Which I had to post twice due to excitement - typed in the wrong link)



You have a few days left to join the challenge!
So... look for those special stamps and start crafting!

PS -  In my email this morning I read the Splitcoast Stampers newsletter and the 
         Color Challenge was exactly the colors I choose for this card!



Making this card much more Special!
