New Stamps
So it’s Saturday, the first day of the weekend and like normal, I’m trying to catch up with the laundry and stamp in between loads. Since I haven’t given you any stamping the last few days, I wanted to give you something new. I received a new stamp last week (actually one of many) from American Art Stamp. How appropriate that it is called Out of Money. The more I think about high school graduation, two girls in college – tuition for both, cars, car insurance, not to say anything about *rubbah*, paper, embellishments – oh my mind is just reeling!
Anyhoo, I’ve been playing some with my long-forgotten Primsa Colored Pencils this week and while they were out, I thought I would color up this image. I wanted something springy, since it’s cold here again today, grey clouds, just yucky! Thank goodness that tennis match got cancelled (I hate watching tennis in a winter coat – we should be wearing shorts, tank tops and flip-flops).
Back to the card, I stamped the image with Black Stazon on white cardstock and colored with Prisma Colored Pencils and Turpenoid. My friend, Cyndi Wheeler, sent me the most awesome white cardstock this week – I’m sure it’s probably from her share, but this paper is fabulous! There is just a little bit of sparkle to the paper and has such a pretty look and feel. I ran a piece of this new paper through the Cuttlebug using the Bloom Dots embossing folder and used it as my background. Once again, I was drawn to the simplicity of black and white and added the Pink Passion for that little pop of color!
love your coloring! Looks super!
Hee hee, I love that sentiment, my DH can definitely sympathise with that one! Great card Sherry!
Great card and very appropriate for my DH! hehe
love it!
Tee hee! Of course, you had to have this stamp, Sherry! It’s so you!! Couldn’t we all use this from time to time! You sure made a cute card with it. Love the embossed background and the hot pink and green!
I love how you use ribbons-two different textures and they look so well together.
Love that little green splash of color in the ribbon. Super cute card…and oh so right!
I love this card, the colors, sentiment, the ribbon, everything is great!
tee hee… that stamp is too darn funny! love how you colored her and then the little touch of green polka ribbon with the black–fab!
Hey that card resembles me! How did you know? 😉
Really cute Sherry!
