I stamped some cards for the challenge, but I don't as of today have any amuse stamps yet -- although I did order some from a friend and she did email me and tell me she has them in and she plans to send them off today *giddies* Still, I thought I would post my cards that I did create -- there are two.
Oh, and if by chance I do get my stamps in before Sunday, I will do this challenge again and post some more cards. Sorry for the novel . . . here they are:
