Stamps are for sale! Stamps are for sale!!! Here is my last peek at what is on the 'shelves' today at Elzybells!
Hi guys! I am home and where I belong... with my "stuff" and not sitting in the car. Don't get me wrong, we had a great time and I swear I saw Michelle Obama or at least their puppy Bo, I {{heart}} Washington DC! I just love being home better...LOL
So, this is what I came up with for something a little different, to showcase the three images that come with this acrylic set. It doesn't open like a regular card, it just pulls out and I will write in the back. Remember I said that I had a lot of June birthday's coming up? hehe...another card off that list. :)
I colored this with my pencils and blended with my gamsol. I added a little glitter, a little clear glaze pen and a lotta love! lol I am not one to sit and try out 'new' ways of making cards, I kinda like to just show off the stamp... this card had me playing and turning and measuring and re-doing... But, I did something different and I hope my friend loves it!!
I also hope you have been checking out my design team friends cards too. If you have a special little someone who will losing those baby teeth, a fishing fan, a soccar star...there is something for everyone and MORE!! There are so many ideas from the past few days. Elizabeth is ready for business so go see what's going on in the store!! See ya soon...
Love the colors and the fun interactive flips and pulls!

Great idea. I know what you mean about experimenting.. it can be a real pain. Love this image, and am about to go see all the new releases, and maybe, okay more than maybe, order some.
