Stef's site for today's inspiration was Empirical Style. Many vintage items to choose from. I chose a not-so-vintage PRINT by Charley Harper. I say "not-so-vintage" since I met him in the 80's at a local art gallery where he was having a showing. I chose this print mainly for its fall colors, and did find an stamp that had a little bird in it. I always think of his work as capturing the essence of a species with its distinguishing features in a "CAS way".

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
life is something that happens only when you run out of cardstock
