The Unique Blog Hop continues today with Chris and Mischelle's post.
I wanted to share a couple cards I started for last week and they just didn't come together until yesterday. Above is a card using a stamp set I won on Chris' challenge blog back in May. I am so rusty at stamping, I just could not get it to stamp cleanly, until yesterday and several ink and paper combinations. I colored it with distress markers. Papers are digital from Doodle Pantry.
I also haven't stitched on a card in months because my machine was giving me fits, stalling shortly after getting started. I couldn't remember if I fixed it before I put is away. I do recall cleaning and straightening the needle and re-threading it. Turns out it was fine, so I must have fixed the problem.
The second card uses the paper pad I won on Andrea's challenge blog in May. {May was a good month}.

That card turned out wonderfully Deb - I'm so glad you were able to get those stamps to work! :) (I know it was them and not you!!) I'm so excited to be part of this Unique Blog Hop and my post is up! PS. I have fits with my machine too...but the results are so worth it!
