What a fun challenge! The stamp on the left I bought at a street sale at The Ink Pad in NYC. I donât think I had been stamping long at all as I have a picture of it from 2004 in a notebook. Yep, I saved it all these years! The card on the right I made this morning using glossy paper as well as Me & My Big ideas paper. I do believe I have paper that might be that old as well! What a super idea to go back and look through all the notebooks of pictures of cards! The first batch I made and sent to my daughter in NYC without taking pictures but then I decided to just take the pictures to keep track of the cards. Thanks for a fun morning, Cathy!

I too am impressed that you had this on hand to use for today's challenge. I have a hard enough time hunting down an old stamp I have that it would take forever to even figure out if I still had the card somewhere. 20 years of stamping will do that to you I suppose. LOL

Kathy, I remember the Ink Pad in lower Manhattan...a delightful small shop just chocked full. Your cards are equally as lovely and beautifully done. You started out impressively and still are!

Great first card and super image. Love the remake. It is always fun to go back through our old cards and remake some especially with our new skills that we learn over the years of trying new techniques.
