All of the DT can be found on my side bar under the InStyle Stamps link -
You will need to go to the InStyle Stamps (ISS) Forum to vote for your favorite DT project. When you vote your name will be entered into a drawing for a prize of your own... Now I know there will be lots of great inspiration with all of these DT.. but if you like my project.. feel free to vote for me so I can win a prize too! LOL
You can then also enter to win the grand prize by playing "Meet the DT Trivia." Read the trivia from the DT blogs and collect the answers to a list of questions about the DT and email your answers to instylebloghop@aol.com by 10pm EST to enter. The list of questions will be posted on the ISS forum at noon on Friday (today) so no one gets a head start on it.

How did you first get introduced to stamping?
hard to say I think it was a combination of magazines and Internet sites
And for my Inspirational project....
I purchased a very inexpensive clock at the store - I think it was less than $5.00 - I took the plastic top off the top and used it for sizing my pattern paper, traced and cut the circle out. Carefully removed the handles and placed the pattern paper inside the clock making a hole in the center for the clock piece to come through. Rub-on's are used for the numbers - I believe these are American Crafts. I stamped out two InStyle images, at one you see SusieQ and at 6,7,and 8 your find Sheree ... both are colored with my Copics and then the bubbles and tub for Sheree are highlighted with Shimmerz and Stickles. They are loosely cut out and then I inked the edges.
Now I found in my stash a few weeks ago this transparency overlay - for some reason it just seemed to fit with this clock - a reminder of sorts - And Shopping and Bubble Baths... yea.. what all girls love! I then added a few tiny Prima flowers with stickles centers.
I put the clock all back together - hands and then the cover. Around the outside with glue dots I added a piece of satin ribbon and more Prima flowers... I really like how it came out - and every time I check the time I can remind myself... to do what I love!
Ok - now you can HOP on over to all of the other DT's then make sure to visit the Forum to vote... No pressure to vote for me.. but if you really like mine... please make sure to take the time to vote! Remember you may win a prize just for voting! And most importantly have fun hopping and seeing all the great inspiration!
Now get going to all the InStyle DT (found in my sidebar)... and visit the Blog as well!

Cute Clock Michelle. I love your choice of colors. I especially like that you refurbished it! Hate when you have to spend the money on something, when alot of times we can spruce something up we already own. Great job, thanks for the inspiration....I'm looking around for something now.
