I recently "rediscovered" my barcode stamp so, whilst I had the image out ... it's time for an Artist Trading Card - deploying some more snippets. Sadly, the barcode image wasn't square on the wooden mount (probably explains why I haven't used it a lot) so I thought it was high time I removed it from the mount so I could get more use from it. Now, I've done this before, on numerous occasions, but I have NEVER had one peel off as quickly and cleanly as this one - BAZINGA! I now have it as an unmounted image, ready to slap on to an acrylic block (hopefully square!) and use again and again!

Your card has the perfect image and sentiment to cheer someone along Kathy.
Well done on fixing your barcode stamp for future use. You've made a super ATC with it.
Hang on to your hat in this weather! xxx
I love this sweet and charming image Kathy and love the background sketchy circle which has a very pretty textural look, and the sentiment is great. The ATC using the barcode works brilliant here and love the sentiment too. I have a few PB wooden stamps and am thinking of taking them off the wood as I am very short of space and they would be easier to store, and seeing this I might give it a try. x
Very pretty card! I have always loved this stamp set. Thank you for playing with us at the HLS Die Challenge and hope you can join in again soon.
