Great Scott!!!!


Well, I've got the day off today....woohoooooooo!!! I'm sorry you can't all come with us for lunch!!! You totally made me laugh with your remarks about the commute and how long it would take for you to get here!!! For those that do live closer, like not in Alberta or Texas or....the UK......I know that we will definitely be doing it again and in the spring and summer months, we can plan well in advance as the weather won't be so iffy. It'll be a big party!!

Today's card is made with the wonderful High Hopes Rubber Stamps!!! These two fellas are from the latest release. I stamped them on Wausau bright white cardstock in Archival Brilliance Graphite Black ink and coloured them in using my Copic markers. This time when I coloured them though, I didn't colour all the way out to the lines....I did more of a sketchy look leaving some areas white. I've used this technique before and I like it because the white tends to draw the eye. See how some areas around the edges are left white?? Give it a try on your next card and see if you like it too!

The colours are taken from the Creative License Simply Scrappin' Kit which is now retired. I just cracked one open yesterday for the first time and I believe I have another one too!! Heehee! The papers are fantastic and the kit comes with the textured cardstock I used too. This card is a 6x6 card and I pop dotted the main image, added some $ store buttons, a clip with matching ribbon and I stamped the sentiment on a die cut sticker. You can find these stamps at The Town Scrapper or order them directly from High Hopes!!

Hope you all have a stampin' good day!!!

Hello Kim: I am hopefully going to Scrapfest in Kitchener in April (12th). Will you be attending? It would be so nice to meet you. If you do, please let me know and I can meet you there somewhere amongst the fun.
I have been looking at all the fun photos from CHA from blogging friends and wow are we in for a treat of papers, ribbons, embellies and more.
Take care and have a Happy Valentines Day. Great Scott looks very happy.
