Stay Cool


I used a set of cat stencils for the background paper and then colored the stamp with Copics.  The stamp is marked MJ Stamps with a phone number.  I tried searching the company, but it doesn't look like it's in existence any longer.  It's a really nice, old, wood mount.  I miss the rubber shows and I know a lot of people who have unmounted their rubber from the wood, but I haven't been able to do it, myself.  I like the old school sometimes.

Hello!


I'm back into production in three's again.   When I only make two, you can tell that one of them was a total failure, because I almost always do three cards at the same time.

For these, I first used some stencils to make the background paper.  That proved to be fun but I had to learn to keep my fingers clean between colors.  Easier said than done.   All I needed to add were the hello and cat head die cuts.  East and fast!
