First Retro Rubber Challenge, Join The Fun!

Hi!  Recently I joined the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog Design Team and I am so grateful to be on this team! I love stamping, and have been doing it since 1996? It has been so long, I am having trouble remembering exactly how long. I started stamping when a friend invited me to a Stampin' Up party. I remember asking her "Stampin' What?" I didn't even know what stamping was! Basically, I was immediately hooked on this hobby.

My project today was created for the current Retro Rubber Challenge, but is also being submitted to another challenge, the Moxie Fab Challenge (closing Nov. 5 at midnight). It can be found here: http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2014/10/fabulous-friday-challenge-just.html The Moxie Fab Challenge is based on a photograph image. 

 
Challenge #1 RRCB:
 
 

The first challenge for the RRCB involves pulling out your oldest stamp.  (it could also be any stamp older than 1 year old).  It can be a text stamp or an image stamp, it doesn't matter.  Use this stamp on a fresh creation that you make.  It could be a card, layout, altered project, etc. 

For my project, I used an old acrylic text stamp set that I own.  I love how versatile it is.  Here is my creation for the challenge:
