Rubbernecker Preview Day 2 - The Great Thing About Getting Older

Welcome to Rubbernecker Stamps PREVIEW days!   Today is day #2

Rubbernecker is releasing new stamp sets on Tuesday 5/3/11.  Be sure you visit each of the blogs of the participating Design Team and leave a comment - as one lucky commenter will win a $15 Rubbernecker Stamps Gift Certificate.

Today I used a pretty new background stamp called Pentagon Floral Panel #544.  Doesn't it make a great background for a sentiment?   This sentiment is from an earlier release -  the Garden Phrase Set #508  I stamped the panel - layered it to a green panel - tied a wrinkled seam ribbon around it and adhered it to the card.  I stamped the sentiment, cut it with a mega rectangle Nestability, layered it to a green rectangle and adhered that over the ribbon.  Then I just added some green rhinestones to the sentiment and some of the flowers.  You can click on the pic to see it larger.

You can find the complete list of today's participants on the Rubbernecker Blog.

Please stop by again tomorrow for Rubbernecker Release Day!  We have a fun game planned for you!

Thanks for stopping by today - enjoy all of the Design Team's  creations - and GOOD LUCK!
