Ready-Steady-STAMP! Challenge Four

Ok, so it's taken me 'til the fourth challenge to get round to entering, but I LOVE this concept!  You get a list of 'ingredients' and have to include these, plus some stamping, into your piece.
This time the challenge was set by Sue Roddis and I had all the ingredients so didn't have to go out shopping for anything additional.  I used my favourite base, a brown envelope.  :)
If you're struggling to find the canvas, it's the little scrap of dark brown under the velvet brad on the top right!  The scalloped circles have become flowers.  I usually put my gems or raindrops in lines of three but was challenged this time to include them as part of the A collage.  And if you'd like to try this challenge, visit the Ready-Steady-STAMP blog.
EDIT:  Apologies to the RSS team, Sue was guest designer but didn't set the challenge.  Thanks Isa for letting me know!

    I just happened to click to see what you did with the comments and found a new post. It takes, like, 2 hours for a post to come through on the list!
    Anyway....love what you did here my friend...you are definitely keeping busy. xx
    P.S....I know you won't be able to stay up late to read my post, so you will have to have your cuppa with you in the a.m. : )

    Karen (kjjc) hasn't been able to leave comments on my blog and we discovered last night that setting the comments page to open in a new window appears to work for her. So if anyone else couldn't leave comments, hopefully you can now!!
