Well, I'm at it again!! I can't seem to put the Kraft cardstock away... LOL! It just looks so pretty with all of the Autumnal colors! {{sigh}}
I am LOVING Claire's Peace & Plenty (Waltzingmouse Stamps) set! I chose to use the apple basket this time. First, I stamped the image onto watercolor paper, watercolored with Tombow markers, then cut just the apples out. I then stamped the image onto a cork sheet (by Quickutz) and cut just the basket out. I colored directly onto the cork using some Copics to add a bit of shading.
Here's a close up picture so you can see all of the texture the cork has! Sooo fun!! Just don't look too closely at the coloring...LOL! It's my first time using the Tombow markers! Even though I have a lot to learn (and could use a lot more practice), I have to say I LOVE them! I'm not going to give up my Copic markers or anything, but I have to say that I'm hooked!! While I was in Missoula, my friend Tosh brought her Tombows and gave me a mini lesson! ((Thanks, friend!!))
The Very Vintage Labels set I used is currently out of stock, but I know Claire is expecting some more soon! Speaking of expecting new sets...did you seeTHIS post over at her store? OMGosh, I'm not going to say what she's been up to...but I am going to say that you will L*O*V*E it!!!
Ok, that's all from me today! My munchkins are literally hanging on me asking what's for dinner every FIVE seconds!! LOL!! Do you remember the seagulls fromthe Finding Nemo movie? You know, where they constantly say "Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine"? LOL! Well, that's my kiddos today...except they are saying "I'm hungry...what's for lunch...can I have another snack...when are we going to eat dinner"! Hmmm, I think my boys are getting ready to sprout up some more! LOL!
