Hi there! A while back I pulled out another of my self-made card kits and started coloring, but then I got distracted by challenges and these cards, though finished and photographed, were not yet posted. Today is their day.
This kit features Colorado Craft Company stamps by Kris Lauren. Very cute! The set I used today is called This is the Life, gifted to me maybe a year ago. I always question my sanity when I realize how long I've left something waiting in the basket.
The snail, mushroom, grass, ladybug, and sentiment are all separate stamps. I stamped the snail, masked it, and then stamped the mushroom and all the rest. There is quite a lot of fanciful detail in the snail shell. Coloring is with Copics.
Next up is the little mouse. Again with the masking and adding in other stamps from the set. The sketch is FMS #707 which I loved a lot for using designer paper. I made a point of adding some Cottage Cutz flowers to each card as they were also not yet used, though much newer to me than the stamp set.
NBUS Challenge #84 -- My never before used schtuff is the CCC This is the Life stamp set and Cottage Cutz Flowers.
Gosh, this was fun! You might think I'm making good progress on my NBUS and maybe I am, but there's still so much! Not the least of it is gifts from my local soul sister who showers me at birthdays and Christmas, and sometimes in between. We keep on keeping on. It's a sisterhood.
Thanks for stopping by. You know I love it when you do!
