BLAST FROM THE PAST!

TGIF!!!!  WOW....has it been a long week for me. Work left me little time to play,but I do have a post today...it will be short however!
Today I am welcoming you to a special addition of  a Skipping Stones Design Blog Hop!  We do our weekly Tuesday sketches of course and introduce SSD new sets, but the purpose of this hop is to bring attention to some of our older sets.  So our challenge for this hop was to use one of our oldest SSD sets and create.....I have to be honest...I was really short on time this week so my card is very simple.  Here it is:
I used  Chocolate volume # 2 for my "Chocolate Gift Card"....I stamped three of the chocolates and cut them out and adhered them to a doily stamp by Stella Rose that I cut out.  I used DP from "Pinkpaislee" for the front and inside.  Let me show you the inside.....

I used left over strips of DP, and put some chocolates in a saved plastic folder from a cuttlebug embossing folder I purchased...don't throw them away!! I use them for all kinds of things...even mising markers etc to watercolor with etc.  Anyhow, the inside left says "That may be true, but do we dare take the chance?..that saying tickled me...that is what I like about SSD stamps..they are soo fun and unique.

Since this is a hop you will get to continue on from here to see what some of the other Stamp Tramps did with their choice of a SSD older set of stamps.  You should have arrived here from Heathers Blog, and from here you will go to Amy's Blog
