Signs of Autumn



Recently I posted a card using the Gina K Designs Signs of Autumn stamp collection. I love stamps but I am terribly guilty of purchasing a stamp and only utilizing it once. I love the pumpkin stamp in this set so much I decided to challenge myself to use the same stamp several different ways. The first post I used the cracked glass technique that Gina K posted on StampTV. This time I put my own spin on a card using the same stamp. I also forced myself to use some very old supplies. I literally had to knock the dust off of my Creative Memories Punch... LOL... Challenge yourself to re-purpose things you have in your scrappin stash for new projects. I think it is the best way to re-awaken your creativity! Enjoy!
