RETRO - GOING BACK TO 2004!

As nice as it is to start using new stamps, there is a special relationship with old stamps that maybe we have forgotten to use for a while.  This was my thinking behind starting my Facebook group - The Joy of Sets where we celebrate all stamps, not just Stampin Up, old and new.

 The challenge over at Retro Challenge #rrcb84 this week is a photo image :
RRCB 84

 The challenge over at Inspired By is also very similar 


This one had me scratching my head thinking I didn't have anything that was old enough to do with rain or showers.  And then I remembered a little set I've used recently for an inchy swap which has a cute little umbrella in it.  This one hails from a Stampin Up Set called A Little Love from 2004!

I've used a retired SU embossing folder and some retired ribbon also.

    That's a really retro umbrella stamp. I don't think I've ever seen it before. It was nice to use a retro embossing folder too. Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber Challenge. PS Love the name of your Facebook group!

    This is wonderful, I am a sucker for an embossed background. And I really like the sentiment. Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber this time. Claire DT
