Congratulations 3" x 3" Notecard with Colorful Seasons
The Colorful Seasons Stamp Set has these beautiful leaves and I cannot resist using them for practically everything. No kidding... this set is definitely a "go-to" for me. But specifically these stamps make it easy to do some fancier ink techniques. Since I've done a ton of fancy techniques before, I thought it best to show you how basic stamping can also create beautiful projects. Mango Melody and Poppy Parade show off the almost neon colors of fall leaves. The veining stamp for the large leaves gives a lace effect that makes my eyes pop, I just love it! Full tutorial below!
Thankful Thursday
Today I am thankful that most of those who were displaced by Florence have been able to go home and start the process of healing. The flooding is receding and the outpouring of compassion and aid from the community here in NC has been steady. My thoughts and prayers remain with them through this difficult time and I hope relief efforts continue so that all affected may move forward.
