Hello! Welcome to my stop on the Taylored Expressions August Blast from the Past Blog Hop! The theme this month is "Collectors Anonymous" as in crafty collecting! Well, I am a paper hoarder as good as the rest of them! I was inspired to create a craft card using some of my favorite stamps from TE! I based my color scheme on the plaid background paper and actually assembled my entire card before coloring my main image. That helped me get the colors right with my pencils! I hope you're having fun going around to everyone's blogs today. The complete list of blogs is at the bottom of this post.
This was the sketch for this month...designed by the super talented Sankari. I had to modify it a bit since my main image was too big. That's okay, right?
Check out all of these fun crafty-related stamp sets!!!
I used my Prismacolor pencils for this one since the images are so tiny. I added some pops of glitter glue to jazz it up some!
I'm not really sure, after 17 years of buying craft stuff, if it is cheaper than therapy! Hahahaha. I know it's more fun!
I added some glitter glue to my buttons also...
Such a great card! LOVE the color scheme, the stamps and of course the glitter glue. I hadn't thought to add it to buttons for a touch a sparkle!

This is an absolute burst of happiness, Wanda! Love, love, love it! Just makes me smile. :)
......and I'm thinking it IS probably cheaper than therapy.

Fun card, love how you incorporated the other sets. The added glitz to the buttons is perfect! Yes, stamping is a lot more fun and I think much more productive than therapy, perhaps not cheaper ;-) (ha!)
