Stamp Anniething: Back to the 80’s!!

It’s been a great week reminiscing about the 80’s while I work on my design team projects for Stamp Anniething. They released a new Grab and Go Box called, “Back to the 80’s.”  A Grab and Go Box comes with all the things you need to make cards. This kit can also be used for scrapbooking, journaling, treat boxes, etc. It comes with stamps, dies, patterned paper, a stencil, cardstock with envelopes, glue, double-sided adhesive, ribbon, shaker bits,and enamel dots! All you need are scissors, a paper trimmer, a die cut machine, and your favorite coloring medium.

Few of the stamps in the Back to the 80’s Grab and Go Box were inspired by characters from several movies from the 80’s: 1) The Breakfast Club; 2) 16 Candles; and 3) Flash Dance. Then there are stamps that reflect what was trendy back then: 1) Break Dancing and 2) Big boom boxes. All the elements in the Grab and Go box are so fun and so 80's! It brought back so many great memories for me as I was a young adult then. 

I made four cards to share today and will continue to make many more using this Grab and Go Box as there is an ample supply of stamps and papers still to use!

Due to time constraints, I have only listed the color medium and colors I used for each card. Two cards I colored with Copic markers and two with Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend and Illustrators markers.

It's been fun reliving the 80's this week. I even had 80's music playing while working on my projects, LOL! I hope you enjoyed these cards and can also reminisce the great 80's!
