Sometimes I hear men say, that women have quite strange reasons for buying things…. ok., that´s a cliché, but – sometimes they are right !
Last month I found 2 stamps from Stamping Bella (“Harriet” and “Henrietta”), which I liked very much – so I decided to buy them. Everything ok with that.
But then I saw a 3rd stamp and bought it, because it has the name of my Mum – “Gertie”!
I HAD to have it because of the name – pretty strange!
But fortunately the stamp is really lovely, too – so it was a good decision!
My 1st ever step-card … but not the last for sure! Guess, it´s my favourite technique at the moment...
May I introduce you to "Gertie" ....
I´ll enter it here:

Love these stair step cards!! Glad you're ahving fun with some new stamps! I have a couple bella stamps but don't use them much, I guess there's a lot of black space for a colorist to deal with! lol
AntwortenLöschenYou did well with this, Uli!

AntwortenLöschenI really like this card! I've never tried that style before, but yours is beautiful. I don't think it's strange that you bought something simply for it's name - haven't we all done that here and there? THanks for joining CR84FN!
