Now, over to you Corinne...
First of all I am not a stamper. I have stamps don't get me wrong, even more than I can count, but do I use them a lot? My answer is no. It is not that I do not like using stamps, but I think I just have to get used to them. I loved playing with the stamps from Banana Frog though, they challenged me to step out of my own comfort zone, scrapbooking wise.

Joy in Italy
For this lo I didn't wanted to use any patterned paper, alphabet stickers or embellishments. I wanted to challenge myself to work with the stamps. Instead I used the 'O' from the Budmo Jiggler as part of my background stamp.
For the title I also used the same alphabet but I used a lighter colour of ink otherwise the black would take over the whole lo and the focus wouldn’t be on the photo anymore.
One little word
Making a scrapbooking page without a photo is very hard to do for me, but I just did that in this layout and I actually like how it turned out. The cupcake(Build-a-cupcake) was perfect for this with the one candle celebrating that the challenge blog One little word was also one year old.

Happily ever after card
I used the cute hedgehog from the Greenwich Park stamps for this card. I wanted two of them to kiss but I had only one stamp. I stamped the same stamp twice on white paper, cut them out and turned one of them around. Now they were facing each other. I just had to draw black lines that were somehow similar as the original stamp. I think it turned out ok.

Happy Birthday card
I just love cupcakes and now I had the change to build my own with the Build-a-cupcake stamps. I used different kind of patterned paper to make the layers and in the last line of the cream I made a little cut with a knife so I could slide the candle in it. This way it sticks out a bit and you can even take it out.
Beverly thank you so much the stamps are awesome and I am sure I am going to use them over and over again.
Thank you Corinne!
