I recently bought a gorgeous set of Stampin' Up alphas and tried to convince myself they were worth the outlay.
It wasn't that difficult, in fact they have hardly been back in their little clear box since I received them.
Today is my sisters birthday, so the card I made for her of course had to have my favourite stamps on them.
Some close up details
The alpha stamps are also perfect for adding extra details and personalisation to mini books and scrapbook pages, here is an envelope mini book I made a couple of weeks ago with the same stamps.
And a card I made for my daughters 18th
Finally I have a quick and easy tag, I just love using my scraps up and feel virtuous when I can concoct something up out of virtually 'nothing', a couple of thin strips of patterned paper, a stray chippie number, a little piece if ribbon and my trusty alphas et voila !!!
So ! What are you waiting for ? Dig out those trusty alphabet stamps and start personalising all your christmas projects.
Happy crafting

The first card is the most pretty, delicate, special card I've seen for a long time. I simply HAVE to make one just like it. I feel a visit to a stampin up catalogue is called for.
