It's time to blog!

Hello!

I can't believe I'm finally starting a blog. I remember the first time I read someone else's blog, I thought that person must not have enough to keep her busy in life. A year later, I'm addicted to reading all of my stamping buddies' blogs, so I thought I would check it out. I'm not promising I'll keep this up, but I figured it was worth a shot.

Why do I call myself a Stamp Tramp? That's a name my husband came up with back before I was a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. At that time I purchased from FOUR differerent demonstrators. I couldn't get enough stamping time, so I cheated on all of them! It came to a head when two of them showed up at my door with an order at the same time! Then I knew it was time to come clean and just sign up. I haven't regretted that decision in the four years I've been a demonstrator.

Okay - here's my first creation from the new catalog.

I fell in love with this Berry Bliss paper and all of the coordinating sets (One of a Kind & Boho Backgrounds) in the catalog. I created the scallop edge with a slit punch and all of the embossing is done with Chocolate chip craft ink and clear embossing powder. Then to finish it off I used a build-a-brad with one of our new rub-ons. I love how it turned out. Hope you like it!
