Hello Lovelies! I almost fell out of my chair when I saw this in the STAMPtember® release! I am old enough to have owned both a pager and a flip phone and can't believe I used to think I was SO COOL with them clipped to my jeans. LOL
The Nostalgic Communication Stamp Set reminds me of the days of AOL and if you don't know what that is, don't ask, just make this cute rainbow card with me today.
I thought that the Intersecting Lines Cling Stamp would be a perfect backdrop for our golden oldie electronics and decided to jazz it up with a little rainbow Copic coloring!
Let's take a look at the key supplies:
