Are you wondering if you read the title of my post correctly? It's just a little play on words and also the sentiment on the inside of this silly card. My sister Susie and I went "junkin" this morning and I found this old 1998 Stampin' Up! "Flogs & Flies" set at a garage sale. Well, actually I didn't even get the full set, just two of the stamps for .25 each. I thought it would be fun to color and it was! : )
The base cardstock is Old Olive and the embossed layer is Kiwi Kiss. The wild designer paper is from Basic Grey - Lime Rickey. Below you can see how I finished off the inside and decorated an envelope to match.
That's all for this evening! Thanks for stopping by!

Pam - I still have that SU! set!! I guess I am a stamp set hoarder. It is a cute set but I have a hard time coloring it, you have done a great job!!! May have to dust off that set and try it out again :)
For $.25 - that's a steal of a deal! Way to bring back an old stamp, Pam.
Now that is a good price for a stamp :D Wish I lived closer so I could come junkin' with you guys! Fun image and wonderfully coloured. Great card :D
TOO CUTE! Oh my, I love this! And your use of the patterned paper and embossed background combination is just a perfect backdrop. Your coloring is, as always, amazing. This is such a cute card and you definitely got a very good deal!
What an adorable card! I love that old stamp... and that paper is perfect for it... Kind of looks like swirling pond water :)
I remember this stamp set! Gail I may have to borrow this from you. Too cute! A perfect summer card and image.
Super cute!! I recently got this set when I lady quit stamping and gave me all her goods. They were all from around then. I kept this one as I thought it looked cute. Beautiful job!!
Very pretty card :)
