OMG, Jean.... I love this! Your "Good Luck in Vegas" stamp is my absolute fave! I've used it many, many times to make good luck envelopes and cards for family and friends going to Vegas! See you on Saturday!!
I love this project....perfect for the Las Vegas addicts. I gotta get the stamps now. Would you like a live coqui frog to put in your box? I have lots to spare.
This is such an awesome project!! LOVE the idea of a good luck marble charm and the box is too perfect!
