Well, hope everyone had a great celebration, a week ago!
This is the card I made for the swap. I had this Stampendous! Uncle Sam's hat stamp for ages, and still love it! This "woodmounted" (grey) rubber stamp says "2000", manufacturing year. I probably bought it within 2 years time. Back then, I usually bought "newly released" stamps in like 2 years time. Not only the "online shopping" on internet wasn't common, like now, but also I lived in the US territory in the Pacific, far away from US mainland, so it took a while for some stamps to get to Guam. 20 years have passed so fast! Surprisingly, there were 3 places I could buy stamps beside Ben Franklin, SU! & CTMH!, on that tiny island back then!
Other stamps are from Essentials by Ellen & My Favorite Thing stamps. I added "stickers" for the words, and star brads. Star brads were too shiny so I smudged a little with brown color Copics. I did some doodling for steam and the table. I love when I make a card, using the "left over" "stickers" and "brads" from the LONG time past. 😊
I got the inspiration from my calendar in front of my desk as soon as I turned the page to July.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Hope you are having a relaxing Sunday. Love, Eve
