I got some new stamps last week, but hadn't been able to play with them yet, so I pulled this one out this morning and did yesterday's challenges. This is for the TLC and CAS challenge. Trust me this really is a CAS card for me. I flipped Brigit's sketch on it's side to accommodate the stamp image and added that additional layer in order to create some texture since I don't have any textured card stock in this color.
This image was fairly easy to color using markers and blender pens. I had not planned to sponge this, but I got a little smearing of ink from coloring over the embossing and had to "fix" that. The touch of glitter on the lettering really makes this image pop.

This just popped out of the gallery - wonderful colors and vintage looking image. I can't quite tell if the top red layer is crimped - to me, it looks like a bit less depth than a crimper. At any rate, it is gorgeous.

This is a great stamp and I like all the colouring you put into it. The gold embossing looks perfect! You'd never know it was a 'fix it' card. Nice save.
