One of the first challenges I entered were by Mark's Finest Papers, which are now , sadly, out of business. My first win was this Garden Art stamp set. The sunny spring weather motivated me to pull this old stamp set out and make an ATC. The background is by Lost Coast Designs from their ATC backgrounds set, and I added a grasshopper image by Papertrey Ink. I was able to use small scraps of plain cardstock for my stamping and background, then fussy cut to create my garden scene.
Pixie's Snippets challenge 373. All stamped images were stamped on scraps, and I even used a scrap of patterned paper for the dirt
Lost Coast Designs challenge 94, make an ATC. I used a stamp by Lost Coast Designs for my background

ReplyDeleteLOVE the gnome! Great ATC Karen - thanks for joining in on the fun at LCD/CV!!
ReplyDeleteLook at that cute little guy! Love how you have colored him and given him a grasshopper and a sunflower to hold. Thanks for joining the Lost Coast Design Challenge!
ReplyDeleteGreat card Karen - that little guy actually reminds me of a friend, no kidding!
ReplyDeleteJust ordered a set trimmer set to see if I can give Dudley a haircut myself. Had been going to take him to our local groomers today who we've used in the past. However, two staff are off with what is most likely Coronavirus - that was a close call. Plus, you say you trim Toby yourself so am going to try. Ha - watch out for a poodle cut!
So sorry I've taken ages to comment.
