I think Chris is UBER COOL for collecting cards for others! I made this "cool" card to tell him so. I stamped some words as part of my message, too. It came from the heart and I hope he likes it!
IS SAHARA SAND SUPPOSED TO BE REAL LIGHT-COLORED? It looks like a faint coffee stain. Should it? I haven't ever used this pad that my sweet friend Kris gave to me quite a while ago. Or ... is it just dried out?
I used yesterday's CC473 colors Baja blue, Sahara sand and subbed crushed curry for the saffron.
Thanks for looking!

Wow, this really IS uber cool, Gabby! I know how much Chris is going to enjoy getting these cards to take to the hospital - he knows how much they helped him and you are so sweet to come up with such a "kid friendly" card like this - love those "stains" LOL!

Uber cool says it all! Great card! My Sahara pad seems to give more coverage than yours, but I have other pads that are less than 1 yr old that are dry (without use, too!).

What a fab grungy vintage masculine card, Gabby. Every time I see a card like this I wish that I'd kept at least one of my old typewriters. Mind you, once used to the responsive touch of a keyboard, going back to one of those would be quite a challenge to the fingers! I like the cup-ring ?? stamps, way cool.
