I haven't stamped all week and all that work I did to get myself ahead of the game has dwindled and now I'm going to be paying for it next week when I work to get ahead again. Fortunately it's Thanksgiving week and I won't be doing all that running around for school activities and such, so I'll just grab myself a hot beverage and get inky all week - yeah! Sounds like heaven to me.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I made this autumn card using Love Grows Here from Taylored Expressions.
I started by stamping the image in Memento Rich Cocoa and then colored it with Copic Markers - after cutting it out with an oval Spellbinders die, I used the die to trace a border around the inside of the oval. The patterned paper is Lost & Found Rosy from My Mind's Eye. I might have gone a tad bit crazy with that bow - looks a little supersized, eh? It didn't seem that large until I edited my photo, haha!
The Sweet Sunday Stampers have amazing sketch samples to show you today, so stop on by to see:
Thanks so much for stopping by!
