last but not least!

And here is the last of the hand-stamped cards I received for my birthday. This one came from my friend/co-worker/stamp club buddy, Carla. Now I gotta tell you it is so wonderful to see how far Carla has come from when she first started stamping (I still have other b-day cards from her from previous years). When I invited her to come to a stamping party all those years ago (pre-demo) she said she wasn't at all creative, but afterwards she decided stamping was something she could do. And look where she is today! What a great card, Carla - ya done good, girlfriend :) Although I'm not too happy with her right now as she is retiring and will have lots o' time for stamping (I am soooo jealous). Well, she will be taking care of her new granddaughter, Boston, but I'm pretty sure she is happy about that, too!

Stamps: Pick A Petal, Stem Sayings (not sure about the other HB stamp)
Inks: Elegant Eggplant, Basic Black
Paper: Elegant Eggplant and More Mustard - both regular c/s and textured, Whisper White, Pickles d/p (retired)
other: Ticket Corner punch, coordinating ribbon, Hodgepodge Hardware spiral clip, chipboard (flower center), clear circle bubble sticker, dimensionals.
** I think that is most of it, but I may have missed something! :) **

Thanks, but I can't take all of the credit. I am a product of Dana and Pat. Also, I don't know what I'd do without Splitcoast to help me along with great ideas to CASE! Carla
