Great Impressions Guest Design Spot #1

Today is my birthday!!!

and

I was invited to be the November Guest Designer for 

Great Impressions Stamps!!!

How cool is that?

(The GD spot, not the birthday.  I have one of those every year.)

GIS generously sent me some wonderful stamps to use on a few cards to share with you and inspire you.  

Here's the first card I made, sort of a modified gate fold:

 

This adorable Pumpkin Puppy, a Great Impressions stamp (H259S), was stamped once on white cs and once on orange patterned paper, so I could fussy cut the pumpkin and paper piece it.   The leaves were stamped a second time on white scrap, fussy cut, colored and glittered  before being popping onto the framed picture.  The card design is a modified gate fold.  The framed image tucks under the wood embellishment to keep it closed. 

There are 2 more frames underneath, one has a quote- Great Impressions Stamp #E550S,

and the second is for the sentiment.

There is a new Anything Goes November Challenge starting at the Great Impressions Blog 

and some really great stamps in their online store.  I may have to buy myself a birthday gift or two.  I love that Peeking Chicken stamp in the What's New section. 

 Stop back later this month when I'll have another card featuring Great Impressions Stamps.
