This week the TeaPotters are headed to Canada to shower Lynn with some paper hugs.
Whenever my GD visits we spend some time in my craft room creating stamped images for her to color. A couple weeks ago she pulled out this long neglected stamp set and I showed her how to mask the birds so they would be sitting in the middle of the flowers. Naturally, this sprang to mind when I saw Pat's (aka casep) challenge to use a masking technique. Mine is just good old post-it notes. Nothing fancy here, just stamp, mask, stamp, repeat, color. I did fussy cut the hello( twice to stack it) and the butterfly which has one wing popped up on foam.
I tend to gravitate toward the cooler colors when you ask me my favorites; but, I do think yellow is the happiest color in the crayon tin so I included quite bit here. I hope it feels like a bit of sunshine to Lynn. I hope you find some sunshine in your life today too...mine will be from my hubby because it is cloudy and rainy here. Brrrrrrrr. TFL

Fabulous job of both coloring and masking. I love the bright cheery colors. While I can't wear yellow clothing (makes me look like I should head to the nearest hospital for a transfusion - lol), I do answer the question "What color is your personality?" with YELLOW because I have a bright sunny disposition.

Gorgeous! Love the coloring/shading and your awesome masking abilities. (wish I was your GD for a masking lesson) The die-cuts, the design, and the beautiful coloring, perfect...
