'Twas the Tuesday before Christmas, which seems like a fine time to re-visit some of my favorite projects inspired by 2024 challenges at Shopping Our Stash! The captions below the photos will take you back to the original post for each.
I don't use it enough, but I still adore MFT's Rainbows and Unicorns stamp set, especially when paired with some of my favorite Eyelet Outlet Brads; so this was the perfect opportunity. Bonus points for using up a favorite (ancient!) Creative Imaginations paper that I once used (in 2008?! good grief!) to make amazing (if I do say so myself, and apparently I do!) Princess photo albums for the nieces.
There's a whoooooole lotta Wendy Vecchi goodness goin' on here. Mostly Studio 490 stamps and stencils, with some Ranger Archivals and a few Spellbinders items; in short, too many to name here, but if you click the caption the original post has links to every single item!
Yes, I think I miiiiiiiight have a few buttons that I could use for this card! Ironically, I used only TWO buttons on the card, but made up for the shortfall by staging with literally dozens more... and these are just the ones that MATCHED!!!
This was a clever theme, because we all know EVERY crafter has at least one type of item that we consistently over-buy. I have a few, but washi tape is probably the most blatant example. As you can see. My washi tribute card came out pretty well though, it has to be said.
Guy Cards ARE harder to make. Fact. I'm fairly proud of this one since it combines collage AND stamping two things I do a lot of, but (mysteriously) I rarely do them TOGETHER. Hopefully, that will change as I practice more.

Join us next Tuesday for the final 2024 challenge at Shopping Our Stash; then we'll be back every other Tuesday of the new year with brand new inspiration!
