BSS MONDAY IDEA - I LOVE OLD THINGS

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff Monday Idea.

I love old things. When I saw this stamp, it reminded me of my Grandma,
who lived upstairs from us. She had a Singer Sewing Machine in black 
with the gold scroll on it.

  When I climbed the stairs to go see her, I could
hear the hum of the machine before I opened the door to go in.  She made
so many wonderful things for us as kids 

.  So, I just had to have this wonderful stamp.


Stamp - Pink Ink Stamp Company, Sewing Machine (2222K)
I used white, red, black and gold card stock
Rectangle stitched dies
Colored with Copics
I used a gold krylon pen,expelled some ink on a piece of
foil and painted the gold on with a fine paint brush.
Inside sentiment was computer generated and says:
You can't make old friends, you either have
them, or you don't.

I love when a stamp evokes a memory!

Thanks for stopping by today.
  Have a great week.

Love that card! I own an antique Singer that looks so much like this stamp, I have to get it. I have a new Singer that looks like old model, but has all the bells, and whistles....hahaha I rarely sew, so what's the point? hahaha Great Blog.
