u r a hoot!
hi everyone, hope you all had a great 4th of July weekend. I know I did! We spent some time with my family on the 3rd, and then headed to the Cape for the remainder of the weekend. It was a little sad driving back to the Boston area yesterday evening, because Pete and I both love Cape Cod so much. However we will be back there in a few weeks so we have that to look forward to! Here are a few cards I made last week with my new stamp set from Cornish Heritage Farms. I had never bought a set from them before, but I knew when I saw this set I HAD to have it. How cute is this little owl? I love how he looks mildly annoyed. The stamps from CHF are VERY good quality. I will definitely be ordering from them again. I like that they are rubber, but cling mount - much easier to store than wooden blocks.
Also, I colored this little guy with Stampin Up! Markers. I've been debating whether I want to take the Copic plunge (maybe not until xmas) - but I wanted to go for the same shading affect using the SU markers. I think it came out pretty decent. It took a little while to get the shading that I wanted, but I'm pleased with the results. It CAN be done with SU Markers!!
I've been somewhat MIA over the holiday but hopefully this week I will be back in the swing with plenty of blog entries.
