Happy Friday!

Boy was my day a world wind, I'm officially on severance as our office is shutting down. It was a sad day to say goodbye to all the wonderful ppl I've worked with for the past couple of years. Anywho, on to the card...today is a birthday card for my Grandma. I wanted to make it fun, because she is still full of spunk.

Do you ever have a card that takes way too long? Well that was this card for me, I just couldn't seem to get things to fall into place. I think I fiddled with this card for over an hour...UGH! For the love of this hobby!

The image was colored in w/copic markers, then I used Red EP on the Spring Moss and sponged, Cake has Clear Effects for the icing.

Thanks for checking in, hope you have a Wonderful weekend. I will be spending mine with my Grandma and playing golf with the family. Happy Stamping!!

Stress Relief

Do you ever find stamping a Stress Relief? I know I can't be the only one...things have been a little on the stressful side lately. So whenever I can carve out a couple of hours to create I am a happy camper. A good friend lent me her "For Father" set...I love this country old style feel of this set and I hope my coloring accomplished the look. I was browsing blogs and came across Julie's JCC03 color challenge. I thought these colors would work well with the set...whatcha think?


Image was colored in with Copic Markers, BG was stamped with Flannel Plaid and used the spritzer tool over the imaged to give it an aged look.

Thanks for checking out my new inky blog! Happy Stamping, and remember to find a little time for yourself doing what ever makes you happy...life is too short to wish you could find the time for...
