Stamp It! Cards issue

If you haven't already seen it on the stands, the new Stamp It! Cards magazine, a special edition from Paper Crafts, is now available and probably my FAVOURITE edition as of late!  I had the pleasure to participate in the "Stamp It! 3 Ways" feature using PTI's Everyday Button Bits where 3 designers were given the challenge of using the same stamp set to show you several different cards you can create using the same set (p.81).  I was featured alongside of Maren Benedict and Dawn McVey.  In addition, creative genius Erin Lincoln used my stamp set Shapes by Design to create a "Starbust" on p. 30.  I have to admit, seeing someone create a card using one of my sets and having it published is almost more exciting to me than having my own cards published LOL.  So if you ever get a card published using one of my sets PLEASE let me know which magazine/issue etc and I will happily go and buy it!

I choose the bicycle image from Everyday Button Bits and added a splash of colour.  My colour pallette was inspired from the trim at the bottom of the card in addition to the ribbon!
