WWC86 - Gail's Simply Stamping Challenge

This week Gail gave us a Simply Stamping Challenge with a Fall theme. 

Remember that the rules for this challenge are:

"Simply Stamping" is a return to basics. We expect either one single stamped layer or a base with one single layer on that. We expect simple stamping. You can use masking, heat embossing, stencilling, sponging. You cannot use an embossing folder or embellishments or additional layers (not even a tag).

I combined 4 stamp sets for my card, Wetlands, Jar of Haunts, Perpetual Birthday Calendar and Flourishing Phrases.

Check out the pieces that the artists at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges have created then join our challenge by linking your Simply Stamped creation!

Wacky Watercooler Blog Hop- June 2015

We are hopping again Celebrating the 2015-2016 Annual Catalog!

Our Blog Hop runs in a circular fashion.  No matter where in the list of participants you begin, you'll wind up in the exact same place again if you keep going to the "next" blog.  It works the same way whether you do the usual forward movement through the blog posts or if you work your way through in reverse order. 

If you arrived here from Penny's blog welcome!
