What's in a Name?

I created this stamp for somebody in Texas that had lost a Minnie Mouse stamp during a postal ring and I received permission to make some LTCs before sending Minnie off to her new permanent home. I enjoy the surprise of LTCs and I hope others do too, and so nobody would immediately think "Minnie Mouse watering a flower," I named this one "Orlando Gardener." I guess "Anaheim Gardener" would have worked too **shrug**
From My LTCs

It's the Muppets!

These two were done for the Muppet LTC swap, and were again, just reused stamps where the image was put on cardstock. Kermit was a bonus leftover from a PLB ring; here I really missed a better name. I called him "Hi, Ho, This Housefly is Awesome!" but I should have called him "Times Fun When You're Having Flies!" Miss Piggy is one of our PTs that is still in use.

My Earliest LTCs

I blame mstrwndl and Campfire Lady for coaxing me into making LTCs. My earliest LTCs were nothing but the stamped image on cardstock. I still mostly focus on the stamp, and other things on the card I hope accent the stamp. My first two stamps were already laying around the house, one from a Veggie Tales PLB ring, the other from the One in Tenn gathering in Nashville where it had been planted for the event.

Scarlet and Crimson Gryphons

This stamp was created for a traditional planting, but we made an LTC of it, and then thought we'd try it with different ink on differently treated paper.
