Some A*Muse Fun...

As many of you know I moved from a small town to *the city*. Having grown up in a fairly large city I am used to city life. I think the adjustment to small town life was much harder for me. Now that I am a city girl (again) I have my eyes peeled open for opportunities to stamp with others. It just so happens that our local stamp store sells A*Muse stamps and is hosting A*Muse*A*Palooza between July 10th and July 19th. Of course I signed up for the classes--truth be told I am really looking forward to meeting Glenda an A*Muse instructor. Some time over the summer I am also planning to meet up with some fellow SCS gals--Angela Thomas and Kim Teasdale.
While I was paying for my classes I spotted some very cute critters and winter themed A*Muse stamps. And since it has been so long since I have purchased stamps I was delighted to add them to my collection.

I'm so glad you found a local A*Muse stamp store. I just love their little images - especially their shops and other buildings!

Just adorable! I, too, would like to know how you adhered the vellum. You can't see a thing! (which is a good thing!

The vellum was adhered with very thin strips of scor-tape. When I look closely at the card it is hardly noticeable. I hope that helps :)
