Lost and Found Stamp

It finally happened.  My mess of a craft table ate one of my stamps.  Here's how it happened. I was happily using my Stippled Blossoms stamp set and making a huge mess.  I stamp on a 6 ft table but it never fails, once I get stamping so much stuff accumalates that I barely have any table surface left.  I was on a roll and not stopping to clean anything up.  It was a mess.

I needed to run some errands so I left the mess and when I came back I knew I had to clean up the table before continuing on.   Once order was restored I realized I was missing one of the leaf images from the Stippled Blossoms set.  Panic set in and I looked everywhere.  Not in the garbage, not in recycling, not in any of the other stamp sets that were on the table.  Simply vanished.   I couldn't think of where else it could possibly be.  

I went on and finished up the cards I was making and decided to use a leaf image from the Summer Silhouettes set instead (I will show you that card tomorrow).  I started pulling out the ink pads I needed and look what I found!

Lost and Found Stamp

Now the stamps are all back together and I can 2 Step stamp again.  I wish I could report that I have learned my lesson and am cleaning as I go.  If you could see my table now you would know that I am back to making a mess.
