Hello - it has been a while since my last post - I cannot believe how quickly this week has gone by - we were gone some of this week so it really put me behind in everything. This card is made for House Mouse challenge - this week's challenge is a very special one as it is the 2 year anniversary of HM Challenge Blog and they have some fabulous prizes to offer - you may want to head over there and enter yourself for a chance to win!!! I bought this HM stamp about a year ago and never used it yet - this is what I love about challenges - it allows you to use a lot of the "on a whim" stamps that you buy and then put away and forget about. This card is rather large - much larger than what I am used to making but because of the sketch lay-out and the image it had no choice. I stamped the image and colored the entire image and background with my copics. I added a bit of Tim Holtz walnut stain ink to the edges. The rest is just layering - I used some old SU DP and some other from my stash pile - I am not sure where the sentiment is from - again it was in my "old" stamps drawer. I hope you have a wonderful Sunday - our neighbourhood is having its annual barbeque - I think this is the 14th year in a row our neighbourhood has been doing this (we have lived here for 16 years). It is a lot of fun - I am just hoping it doesn't get cancelled as we have had nothing but rain for the past 24 hours and the forecast is for more rain!! Thank you so much for stopping by to visit and thank you to all of you who leave me such lovely comments - I really appreciate the time you take to leave a comment - it means a lot to me. Have a great day.
Your stamping friend
