Well, I almost missed it but I got my August #simplestamping card posted on Aug 30!

Thanks to Brian King for the inspiration. 

I used DSP from In Good Taste the Basic Gray piece served my purpose well.   It gave so much texture.  With our clear stamps, this grid type of stamping is so simple. 

The sets I used were Festive Post and Itty Bitty Greetings.

Basic Black ink.   The DSP is 3 1/2 x 4 3/4 and the white is 3 9/16 and 5 1/4.
