I combo'd this with Stampwilly's BINGO challenge.  It was just perfect since I had this new, uninked Tree stamp! It is a lovely big tree stamp and this card is also larger than I usually make.  The stamp was new, I never used the white twine before and I may have never used the embossing powder before either.

I tried to get the embossing powder to show in this photo:

Thanks for the fun challenge!

I ended up using a never before used stamp, got it at the stamping convention this summer... and I also used nail heads for the first time and they are much thinner than brads and no need to make holes, I have one other colored set I bought so I may have found something other than brads to use now.

I had to use the bird die because I made a boo boo on the background and had a chunk of yellow in the sky.

I also combined this with the bingo challenge

I am not familiar with the nail head product, I will have to look out for them when shopping.

Great card, Connie.  I hadn't heard of nail heads either.

They look like brads or gems but are much flatter, add hardly any bulk at all to the card.  I bought them awhile ago and just hadn't used them, I can't remember where I found them either, I have started a little basket of items I find for guy cards and they were in it.  I just did a google for them and I see you can get them at Walmart and this is the brand I bought too, but I don't remember getting mine at Walmart.  http://www.walmart.com/ip/25266352?wmlspartner=wlpa&adid=22222222227017811177&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=52288827015&wl4=&wl5=pla&wl6=79372955415&veh=sem

Thanks for the link! I might actually need to go to Walmart (it is pretty far from here) to get DS's sport glasses fit with new lenses (not every place does it).  So I might look for them.

Also, I know to look in the sticker section now at AC Moore.

I originally did this card for the rustic challenge but as I was writing everything down I realized it would work for this challenge too.  The background wood wall was my first time using this stamp and I have had it for over a year.  The metal findings on the sentiment are also first time I have used them, bought them for guy cards and then never could think how to use them.

Since I had not used that Unity cupcake stamps for the drive by before, and I needed a gift tag today, I decided to make that image into a tag.  It was really handy to have an image already ready!

Actually, if this Inktoberfest was longer, I have about 20 stamps that I still haven't inked.  A few that I won, a whole order from Purple Onion (I just got some cling foam to mount them) and a couple from I Brake for Stamps.  I say that I have been trying not to buy more stamps, but I guess in reality that might not be true!

I keep thinking that I would love to have some images already colored by have too big of a family that I make cards for and I can barely keep up with them.  I think last count just my side of the family and that is just brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews and now their kids, great nieces and nephews I am up to 59 birthday cards a year, and it looks like my nephew is getting married soon so that will be another one (his new wife), then there is the hubby's side but he doesn't have as many on his side, I keep very busy card making, that is why I am always trying to fit away to give a card as a birthday card into my challenge's  ;)

That tag is fabulous, Heidi.  I'm glad the drive-by challenge helped you out.

Connie - good grief that is a lot of birthday cards.  I have the opposite problem, I tend to make more cards than I need. Love the rustic card.

Wow, Connie! I bet that keeps you busy. I would use that as an excuse to buy more stamps O0

Heidi, I found a few stamps I had forgotten about buying! :o and I feel guilty about my ever growing wish list! Just not enough hours in the day!

Here is a card I made with a new stamp and a new stencil.

I think I just added that stencil to my wish list.  Fortunately, I keep the list in my head.  So I tend to forget stuff, which cuts back on my buying.  ;D

Beautiful card, LeighAnn.
