With that said, WELCOME MY LOVELIES to this week's Forgotten Stamp Friday challenge!! Not familiar with this challenge...well, you should be!! Every week, I challenge myself, and all of you, to make a card using your poor, lonely, dusty, unused, forgotten stamps. I feel guilty with the sheer VOLUME of stamps that I own in comparison to what I ACTUALLY use, so this challenge is one that helps me to ease my guilt a little. There are NO rules, just that you a)PLAY ALONG, b) use a stamp that is either unused or owned and un-inked for 6 months c) come back and add yourself to the linky thingy so I can see what you've done, and d) be sure if you upload to SCS, that you use the keyword FSF16...that way I can find you!! There is no time limit, this is just a jumping off point for you to get into those old stamp sets, and show them some love.
For my card today, I decided to use one of my FAVORITE a la mode sets, Groovy Girl. She was used the first month that she was released, and the poor thing has been sitting on my shelf crying since. Can't we all just get along???;) I stamped her on an X-Press It Blending Card, and then colored her spunky little butt with my Copics. My DP is from the Basic Grey Lime Rickey collection. I paired it with Wild Cherry, Orange Fizz, and Blue Raspberry. I used some Maraschino twine, which I bought from the MFT store. I used some white felt from MFT to make my clouds using the Cloud Die-namics. I also used part of the Sweet Stack Die-namics, and Simply Scalloped Die-namics, as well.
For the inside, I used more of the same, but I decided to use the Say What Die-namics for my sentiment. I also cut out a peace sign, so it could hang over the DP.....that was a lesson in patience right there, let me tell ya.
Before I let you run away, I wanted to give you another head's up on a sale at MFT, which ends today...run, don't walk!!

We've been spring cleaning here at MFT! We found a huge number of products that were limited edition, retired, or are retiring, and we have filled a big box full of our finds.
From Wednesday, March 23 though Friday, March 25, we are having a Spring Cleaning Sale. When you place ANY order that requires shipping, you will receive a freebie with your order. It could be a full spool of ribbon, a patterned paper pack, or any other item out of our Spring Cleaning Sale box.
