Hello again loveys - It's time for another fun-filled Wednesday Stamp Club!!  

I loove this week's theme, and I inked up a stamp set that I've been hoarding for ages so I'm doubly excited to share it with you!!  Wanna see a little peek???

This week's is challenge is Time to Hit the Books!  That means anything your little heart desires inspired by Back to School, Reading, or just general love of books! 

Please upload your creation to SCS using keyword MFTWSC08182010
for a chance to win a $15 gift certificate! You have until Tuesday, August 24th to upload your gorgeous creation for a chance to
win!! 

Here is my card for the challenge!

Isn't he gorgeous?? This is the super-cute stamp from my I {heart} Books stamp set.  I colored my little boy in using Copic Markers and distressed all of my panels using Ranger Distress Ink in Vintage Photo.  The fabulous layout of my card is completely inspired by this weeks Sweet Sunday Sketch SSSC81.  I added some vintage buttons threaded using Linen Thread and finished up my card by adding some Espresso dots.  As you can see, I am still trying (and failing miserably!) at making uniform dots using Adirondack Dimensional Pearls!  I just love the way they look, and I figure eventually I'll get it! until then, excuse my mooshie dots and focus on the delish stamp set! tee-hee..

I hope you'll join us for a chance to win some MFT goodness, and please check out some gorgeous samples (and chat with us!!) on THIS thread on Splitcoast!
