New Nostalgia Stamps!

Whilst out yesterday OH and I popped into Boundary mill, he (as always) spent money on stash for me bless him! I love free stash!! Anyway he bought me 2 of the new Nostalgia Range. Blowing Bubbles & Football Mad!
Then today I popped into Craftsite and bought myself a new cuttlebug folder, and a Marianne Designs Die! (how weird is this one?) The die has snagged my bazill! first cut and it is stuck inside, but it cuts nicely and comes with 2 flourish aswell! Love the shape of it.
Anyway here is the quick card I have made this evening.

I wanted to keep the image uncoloured which is a first for me as I have never done this before but have seen and also recieved cards which have uncoloured stamped images! I couldn't think how to decorate the card so kept it simple with a sentiment! Not sure if I like it or not but hey ho onwards and upwards! 

Stamped image - Nostalgia collection - Blowing Bubbles
Paper - Kraft paper (From the lovely Jennie!) 
Bazzil card stock
Anitas card blank
Stamped sentiment - Paper makeup stamp
Die - Marianne Creatables
Cuttlebug folder - Distressed

I would like to enter it into the current challenge on MSE which is to try a new technique ( I have left the image uncoloured!)
