'X' is for Xerox!

The Craft Barn's alpha dictionary challenge this month is the letter 'X'.  Well it had to come round at some point, I suppose!  I'd initially thought I'd do Xmas, but I never ever write Xmas on cards, as I really don't like the contraction, so I thought I'd try a little harder and up popped Xerox!

 I found a small stamp of a jam jar of brushes - I think it was a free gift on the front of a magazine - and stamped it a number of times.  One of them was deliberately stamped off the page and crinkled - in recognition of the problems I always come across with printers and copier!

 I hope you like my tag!


Have fun!

    Brilliant! I love the quirky misprint, after all I'm sure that's what we all associate with photocopying!

    Ah, what a clever choice and a great way to illustrate the word. I have that little JOFY stamp from the magazine too, I've used it quite a lot.

    You were early visiting me, and here I am later than late visiting you. This is so clever, the way you depicted the Xerox. Like others, I love how you made one look like it had been caught in the copier, something most of us who have used them have encountered before. This is truly a fun, fun look at the Xerox copier process.

    The off-the-page and crinkled picture made me laugh! A great tag and choice of word.
