I participated in the week long stamp boot camp…I mean the annual Dare to Get Dirty 2013 for the Fan Club members over on SplitCoastStampers! I won a prize. Actually, I won TWO prizes. One was an extension of my Fan Club membership. The second was a VERVE gift certificate. I was a VERVE virgin. Was.
It took me a week or so to decide what to get. VERVE is totally different from any other stamps I have. That’s not bad. That’s expanding ya horizons. Gettin’ outta ya box. Stuff like that. Along the way, I found a stamp or two or three that reflect my philosophy on life. Things like “life is a journey, not a destination.” I think I need that made into a stamp. I digress.
I found this: “Happiness is found along the way – not at the end of the road.” Sol Gordon. Perfect.
I used this week’s SCS sketch, flipped; more SC Marks & Co plus stash! I love the boldness of the orange…and the seafoam green. I made a PL card; I believe I’m gonna use this as a reminder / motivator for myself…tack it up in a place where I will see it and remember.
Let me show you how my order arrived.
