I had the best time ever at Stamp Club on Saturday night ! :-) Rebecca is such a wonderful hostess ! There were 10 of us there including 2 new members .Joining us were Anita from the Hero Arts Flickr group and Lauren who taught math to 2 of my children. I felt instantly at home with both women and I can't wait to get together again!
Rebecca demoed the cutest snowman card made with the SU top note die and had kits made up so that we could all make our own card . Fun! I stayed up way past my 9:00 bedtime (lol) so you know that I had a great time!
This is the card that I sent to Rebecca to say thank you . While it is not modelled after any one card in particular, it reminds me of something that Emily Leiphart would make. I just love her clean style and use of Kraft cardstock!
The image is called Warm and Merry and is by Penny Black. I stamped the image twice on white cardstock and cut out just the smallest mouse and coloured it with Copics. Since only 1 arm was visible, I cut the second arm from the second stamped image. I then stamped the whole image on a Kraft card using ArtPrint Brown Memories and distressed the edges of the card with Tea Dye Distress ink. The sentiment is by Hero Arts.
I am really looking forward to our next stamp club! This is such a fabulous group of ladies!
