I bought some letterpress type (I think that is what it is called) a while ago. I look at them everyday! They just look cool!
I wanted to finally ink them up and make some cards.
I only bought letters because 1. they were cheaper and 2. the smaller letterpress blocks/whatever can be used with stamp pads. I love the letterpress look! Maybe one day when I win the lottery, I can buy my own letterpress! Oh wait... I guess you have to play the lottery to win. Oh well!
I used the new SU In Colors on all 4 of my cards and a little epoxy heart sticker... love these little hearts! I still have to take a picture of one of the 4 I made so I will post the other two in a couple of days!
On another, more exciting, note... I made the spotlight on Dawn's latest color challenge! Woo Hoo! I have to blog about it on this post since this is my journal of this kind of stuff (promise I am not the 'look at me' type). I am very honored, as I love all of Dawn's creations! I almost didn't look at Dawn's post about her selections. I just figured as always... I wouldn't make it! So glad I looked! I ran in the living room doing a happy dance and I think it scared my husband! :)
Carver starts school today so... back to my regularly cleaning program! Fun fun! :)
Happy Tuesday!

Congrats on being picked for the spotlight! Whoohoo! That's funny that you might have scared your husband! I do those kinds of things too! I really like those letterpress stamps you used on these cards. I think they are so cool! Have fun cleaning...haha!
Congrats on spotlight! I loved your card and I don't think it's weird at all for you to mention it here! I adore these cards too. I am SO into letterpress and stationary right now!

Cute, simple cards, Kelley! Love 'em!! And, once again, congrats on the spotlight! (We should be neighbors so we could "happy dance" together!)
Kelley! CONGRATS on being in Dawn's spotlight....you totally deserved it with that beautiful card you made. Also, you should totally mention it here on you blog....love these cards you posted here today, they are super cute.....!
So totally love these. So cute so simple so fun! Congrats on the spotlight :0)
these are super adorable!!! i did alot of research and found that clearbags.com is the cheapest and has a ton of variety of sizes..... For now i am doing like a 3x3 for embellishments 4 1/2x 6 or something to where a card would not be super tight in there and a 8 1/2x8 1/2 for paper im going to be selling...... and then im gonig to get the a small size of the ziploc bags they sell too.... they come in 100 per pack so they will last me a while!! loL!! My boyfriend has a label maker where i will print out the labels and the $ store has packs of those manilla bubble wrap envelopes i think 3 in a pack for $ good deal.... anyways i hope that helps and I hope you set up your store!!
