Howdy Crafters- Don't ya just love it when you find something in your stash you have never used before??? I won a DRS Rubber Stamp Set a long time ago - The Sand Castle and Mermaid - this is my first time using it! Goofy Me! I sure like this stamp set - I also have a sentiment but I felt it did not fit this card [The sentiment is Sending you Sunshine] - but I will be using that in a future creations. Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed week.
