It�s time to pay homage to the most needed stamping tool these days.
That�s right!
THE COMPUTER.
It�s the one tool that we all need to stay connected here on Splitcoaststampers. When you have a power outage or you�re on vacation without the internet, you feel those pangs. Yep..those Splitcoast withdrawl pains! What about the frustrating days with SCS is having upgrades? We sure love the computer and our internet!
So, dig out the computer images and punny computer sayings. Maybe you have a stamp or two of a fun emoticon. BUT�
DIGI IMAGES WILL NOT COUNT FOR THIS CHALLENGE. (Hey, I can�t make it too easy!! )

Hmmm - computers featured in the TPT challenge this week, and I think I only remember seeing one live computer stamp - and it wasn't in my house. So I'll have to get my thinking hat to come up with something for this, but I'll try. If I can reboot my brain, it's in slow-mo this week.
I think I'm the one Sabrina is referring to regarding having a computer stamp! I just created this card today for the Tea Party. Here is my card For Kyler.

Well, I DO have the set for this challenge, which I did not use NEARLY as much as I thought I would. Maybe I'll get to use it . . . tomorrow. ;) So tired!
At first I thought I couldn't come up with anything, then remembered I did have a little laptop stamp somewhere - though I think anything with a "mouse" on it would qualify!!
Anyway, here's my card: Love@Laptop
You're absolutely right, Dawn; I do love the computer. Can't think of any appropriate images. I remember seeing the *on/off* toggle featured in the lower right corner of a white card front. The inside script read,*you turn me on.* Kudos to whomever did that one.

Fun challenge! I don't think I have a computer image, but I could see a background with a sentiment working here. Perhaps a special accessory or accent. As someone else said earlier - anything with a mouse!
I needed some help to get me thinking, so I went searching for some funny quotes about computers. Here's some of what I found. Maybe one will inspire you.
Never let a computer know you're in a hurry. ~Author Unknown
To err is human, but to really foul things up requires a computer. ~Farmer's Almanac
Treat your password like your toothbrush. Don't let anybody else use it, and get a new one every six months. ~Clifford Stoll
Computers have lots of memory but no imagination. ~Author Unknown
I just wish my mouth had a backspace key. ~Author Unknown
A picture is worth a thousand words but it takes 3,000 times the disk space. ~Author Unknown
In God we trust, all others we virus scan. ~Author Unknown
Man is still the most extraordinary computer of all. ~John F. Kennedy
Here is my SpongeBob card.
Please check it out because it is a "Get Well" card for a special little boy who would love to receive some cards of support. I am hoping that some of you will find time in your busy lives to make a quick card for him too!
Thanks and Hugs,
True
