a much neglected Sugar Nellie Luca

Hiya luvly peeps, well I guess I am not the only one who has a ton of stamps just collecting dust somewhere in their craft rooms.......mmmmmm.....just think of all those lil characters that don't see the light of day anymore......oh bless 'em.  So when I was asked to make a card for a 12 year old Grandson who plays the guitar, I remembered this lil guy, trouble was I couldn't remember where I'd put him....so I went hunting through everywhere and found soooooo many stamps that I've not used in yonks, not to mention quite a few that have not even been taken out of their packaging let alone inked up.....shame on me.....but I think your reading this and thinking exactly the same aren't you....go on admit it.....lol!!!!!!

So onto the card, which I am entering for this weeks Cupcake Craft Challenge, their theme is "Blue & Green"


Goodies used were:-

Image -Sugar Nellie "Luca with guitar"
Copics
Papers - DCWV
Sizzix die cute "Rock ticket" and star
charm and numbers from my stash

Now I wonder how many of you, like me, are feeling guilty and gonna dig out some oldies, ink them up, colour them in and make a card....lol........I know I'm gonna try my best to ink up some more oldies.

Till next time, ttfn, luv'n' hugs and thank you for popping by my lil oasis

Gorgeous card Vicki!
I'm an absolute shocker for neglecting stamps - they could probably have me done for rubbah abuse!
