This is my sample for Bridget's Dare To Get Dirty challenge using one of my new stamp images from Impression Obsession.... it's made from a vintage photo that made my heart squeeeee when I saw it! Who didn't love a good twirly skirt as a girl, and there's nothing like a sweet curtsy and childhood memories to bring a smile to my face. I tried a new technique that worked well in my head AND on paper... I cut a circle from cardstock, colored around the edge of the opening using Inktense pencils, and then stippled off the edge into the opening using a tiny bit of water and stipple brush. Sounds like a fun tutorial, hmmm?
Dare To Get Dirty is a week of challenges, chatter, stamping and prizes especially for our Fan Club members! We hope you'll join the fun!

I think I might have to take out a bank loan to buy all the scrumptious stamps and goodies you have been creating with Dina. This stamp and your card, makes my heart smile.
