For my day job I'm a Project Manager sort of person at UCL. I say sort of Project Manager because I don't manage projects in a traditional sense but my role means I am instrumental to keeping them on track. That's enough of a description about that! Today was not a fun day and I was so ready for it to be over. How excited was I then when I received the very unexpected email telling me that my stamp was out for delivery today! OMG basically! I only ordered it on Sunday. I'm sorry you don't get a picture of the packaging because frankly I was too damn impatient to open the envelope! This is what I found inside...
Behind that very innocent looking piece of card was this baby!
I've ordered lots of crafty bits from Hobbycraft which includes a block to attach the stamp to and I'll share those items with you when they arrive. But for now, the stamp was used without a handle because basically I couldn't wait I totally cannot resist temptation so if you want me to do something that I want to do, trust me, nothing will stop me! These are a couple of my first attempts.
The first is neater but the second shows that the dots are the same size (I pressed a little too hard on the top one). The green is perfect. I wanted it to match my blog as closely as possible. the picture has come out a little darker than it is in person so it was such a good choice. I'm so excited for the Hobbycraft order to arrive! It just goes to show that:
- Going green is good for you...
- Small pieces of rubber can make you inordinately happy...
- Even a really bad day can get better!
