Hi all! Welcome to the 3rd day of our new adventure!
My name is Kim Muhl.
I'm so happy to be sharing ways to use those forgotten supplies.
This week we challenged each other to use our oldest stamps.
Well, I bought my stamps....ALMOST 18 YEARS AGO!!
Yes, you read that right.
My very first stamps were bought when I was only 19 years old, because I wanted to "save money" by creating some of my own wedding stationery. You know how we all thought that by stamping and making cards we would save money and not have to buy any more. Yep, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Below is the card I created. I made a very simple, yet elegant card.
The small flower stamp was used and colored in with a few copic markers.
I have no idea what company made it, but I do know I bought it at this amazing stamp store that was in our local mall. I feel instantly in love with the store (and stamping). I wish it was still around.
EDITED TO ADD: THE STAMPS ARE FROM PSX
(Thanks, everyone, for letting me know)
Stamps: unknown
ink: Chocolate (palette)
paper: kraft, chocolate, old su patterned paper, ivory
other: ribbon, punches, dimentionals, cuttlebug embossing folder
I thought you might all like to see the other stamps I used for my wedding.
See ya tomorrow....
Such a classy, pretty card! They look almost like PSX stamps!

Thanks for letting me know! There are no markings on the sides, so I had no idea what they were.
