Argh! As You See It #259 is really putting it to us this week, with a humorous speed challenge! OK, time to assemble materials, starting with the stamp set. I thought right away of 2018's Dad Jokes, but then I remembered, don't I have a woman pun, too? Hold it! I actually have a couple, in 2010's Favorite Thoughts, but my fave is this great quote by Eleanor Roosevelt, lol. My mind was off and running at this point. Could I "make" a teabag from vellum? Fingers crossed, lol. I started the clock, quick cut my layers, stamped my sentiment, ran to the Big Shot, cut it out, and embossed my background layer and envelope flap while I was there. At that point, I spent 3 whole minutes fiddling with the vellum to get the shape I wanted, and everything stapled. All assembled - ding ding ding! 8 minutes, 33 seconds. Whew! Favorite Thoughts (retired 2010); Basic White, Crumb Cake, Vellum & Merry Merlot CS; Early Espresso Ink; Timber EF; Rectangle Stitched Dies; Heart to Heart Punch (retired); White Baker's Twine; Stapler; #AYSI259.
