I have another little new-to-me Penny Black stamp ... she wanted to play cards with us today:
Please don't even start to give me credit for my water coloring, I must tell you that the Penny Black folks give us very beautiful graphics on their packaging - I simply followed their lead, the best I could. I started with Zigs, came in with a bit of Fossilized Amber Oxide ink for the bauble, with a splash of Gansai Tambi gold mixed in. Finished her off with a sprinkling of Stickles!
Voila! Another Christmas card done: check!
It's time I invite you to the CAS[E] this Sketch blog - BUT I really want to say how grateful I am for all of you that visit, comment - making this journey with me... thank you - I wouldn't, couldn't do it without your support!
Happy Thanksgiving to you!
