Stamp What?! ~ Jest Between Friends!



Hi friends!
Thank you for your sweet words on our *Coronavirus Flood*
{what we call it just so we can remember when it happened!}
It's all cleaned up and we are back to normal!
 So, I thought it would be a great time to clown around :)




This is the 4th card for my new this year blog series called "Stamp What?" 
My son had a wonderful idea to chose a stamp set for me at random
and I'd make a card with whatever he surprised me with.
The plan = use my old Stampin' Up! stamp sets, whatever he choses
 and we call the Old Dusties! :)
 

 

 For April ~ Jest Between Friends, 
circa 2004 Summer Mini set


 Such a fun choice!
For the record, I'm not the biggest fan of clowns :)
But what drew me to this set, in addition to the joy of coloring him/her,
is the sentiments in the set.


My dad was a HUGE Victor Borge fan
and loved watching his comedy and piano shows.
When he moved in with us, we didn't get the channels that he'd watch
so we bought him a bunch of VHS tapes to watch in his room.
Oh the sound of the laughter coming from down the hall!

 
 Barb and Jeanette are playing along with this crazy creative idea
and you can see Barb's card here and Jeanette's card here!

I hope you are inspired as well to grab some older,
 perhaps forgotten,
 stamps and give them a fresh new look ...
jest give it a try! :)

Take care of YOU and be safe!
Big hugs, bigger blessings ♥
~Kelly
