This is my card for today's limited supplies challenge. We were to make a card using stamps and embellishments that we have not used in a very long time.
This is my story!
1. This little scarecrow was probably one of the first stamps that I purchased from Close to My Heart when I was first introduced to stamping.
2. The leaf stamps, the tag stamp and the sentiment followed suit. I have not used them in years and years! I can remember making cards using all these stamps together a very long time ago. Although, I have CRS disease (can't remember sh*t!) so don't hold me to it.
3. I also used my old crimper. Remember when this was the hot new tool and everyone was buying the bright orange and blue crimpers?
4. Once again I altered another acrylic box, I tell ya I am addicted to these things! They are so fun and you can put stuff in them that you want protected like fragile wheat!!!
5. I glued a little piece of that spongy green stuff that floral shops use to stick flowers in behind the leaf to hold the wheat in place.
6. Okay, so this in not mailable unless packed in a box but then so what else is new? Snort!

Cindy, this is just too darn cute, I always the the three dimensional aspects of your cards. They are real pieces of art and not just cards. You certainly are one of my heroes in this stamping community. I love this happy scarecrow and all of the fall embellies that you've used. Fantastic work on this special card. Woohoo this rocks.
