I think postage stamps are pretty cool.  I am not a collector by any means.  Before I went on my self imposed moratorium on buying craft supplies, I bought a few stamp lots on Etsy.  One included several beautiful butterfly stamps.  So I made some cards with them (I know that is a big surprise for those that know me).  

At least ten years ago I went to a scrapbooking convention in Mesa, Arizona.  There was a booth with a great deal on paper.  A bought about twenty packs of 8.5″ by 5.5″ paper.  Perfect for quick cards.  So, in line with my theme for the year of using what I have, I didn’t buy anything for these cards.  Yay me!
