The ABC Blog Train has stopped here for the day!

Hello ABC Toys and Crafts followers and shoppers!  Are you SUPER excited about this blog hop this week???!!!!  What?!  You didn't know about it?!  Well, then make sure you start at Justine's blog and leave a comment, then go to Karolyn's and leave a comment for her as well, and then stop by the ABC Design Team Blog and leave a comment on YESTERDAY'S POST FOR AN EXTRA GRAND PRIZE!!!!!  And make sure you leave a comment here!  ;)  And tomorrow, you can go over to Heidi's blog to see what fabulous creation she's come up with, and leave a comment!

What are we celebrating?!  My Cute Stamps, that's what!!!!!  And you could win SOME FREE STAMPS JUST BY LEAVING A COMMENT ON ALL OF THE BLOGS I MENTIONED ABOVE!!!!  How cool is that?!   Plus, if you're a follower of the ABC blog, you get to leave 2 comments there!  So your chances are even greater!

Today, I am showcasing this cute little gumball machine stamp from My Cute Stamps called Gumballs!  It comes w/ a gumball machine, a little flower and the word Sweetie.  I wanted to leave it blank so that when I'm ready to use these cards, I can just affix whatever sentiment is needed!  The "glass" for the gumball machine is actually individual bubbles from bubble wrap!  See, you just have to keep EVERYTHING, because you never know when you might need something!  This is a perfect example!  LOL!





I used Brocade Blue c/s and Whisper White.  Real Red ribbon.  Silver gel pen for the gumball machine, as well as Copic Red R27 ~ Cadmium Red.  I used different colored Copics for the gumballs inside the machine.  For the inside of the card, I used the flower and stamped in Rocket Red, Paris Dusk and Dandelion, all Memento inks.

Have a STAMPTASTIC day!!!!
