I mentioned that I've been playing with some stamps that I've purchased, but never had the chance to use. I've been collecting some of the Wild Rose Studio stamps for a while now, but I think I've only used one before now! Wild Rose Studio is a company from the UK. I buy their stamps from Lacey at Stamp and Create.
This adorable image is called Get Well Toby. I stamped him on copic x-press it cardstock with tuxedo black memento ink. Then, I colored him with copic markers and cut him out. I die cut the circle and used a sentiment from Waltzingmouse Stamps' Teeny Trees stamp set. Then, I sponged some antique linen distress ink around the edge edges of the circle while it was still in the die. I used some patterned papers from Echo Park's This & That Charming paper pad and added some green buttons and cappuccino baker's twine.
Thank you for sticking around while I took some time off from stamping. I know I haven't been creating much to share this year. I appreciate those of you who chose to keep following my blog. I love hearing from you so don't be shy! :)
Have a great weekend!
Niki
