The leaves are from a retired FSJ accessory (retired last year but I… Read More »

It’s time to say goodbye to another favorite called the Let’s Ride ATS Stamp. They don’t have a motorcycle stamp in the new catalog so I may keep it instead of selling it. This card is for a friend who loved to ride but has since given it up. I thought it would bring a smile to his face because I’ve also included the word “Route 66” on the front… Read More »

My team mate, Barbara Miller, and I challenge each other once a month to use a certain stamp set. We alternate picking the stamp set and/or colors. This month is was just the stamp set called Stay Wild. Though I used watercolor inks, I was able to use the Butter Cream Card Stock because I didn’t saturate the panel too much. The mountains were made combining Dark Roast Silk and… Read More »
