...for being patient with this lazy blogger. ;)
A lot of fun things have been happening around here - right now my sister is actually in labor with her second baby, so prayers would be appreciated! :)
Anyways, just popping in with two cards for the Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes challenge...
I was inspired by THIS PIN - the card didn't turn out quite how I envisioned it, but it was still fun to make.
And this card was made using the cuts leftover from the card above. I used the Studio Calico inks for both, by just pressing them against a piece of plastic, adding water, and then just using them as plain 'ol watercolors. By the way, I LOVE the Studio Calico inks - I'm not a super inky/stampy person, but when they first came out with the bundle at a discount rate, I decided to go for it to spice up my pathetic color selection (mainly neutrals). I'm using them all the time now, and like Jennifer McGuire said, the second generation stamping works beautifully with these!
Thanks so much for stopping in and God bless!
