What a great gallery from a very talented stamper! Thanks for featuring her. I ordered this stamp set because of the cards Laura posted using it. I just received the set today. The featured stamper challenge was great incentive to get the set catalogued (have to, otherwise IÂ’ve been known to buy the same set twice), trimmed, mounted and inked. That might be a personal best for speed of use of new rubber.
I was loath to change anything on the card; but rules are rules. So:
1. The card base is Old Olive rather than Bravo, layer colors are YoYo Yellow and Cranberry Crisp.
2. I used two designer papers from the Sultry slab (Archivers) rather than Brocade.
3. I canÂ’t freehand draw an outline (how does she do that?) so I sponged edges instead.
4. Kept the leaves green and yellow rather than adding orange and burgundy.

This is wonderful! Your changes work wonderfully with the stamp and the sponging adds colour and depth! Thanks for your kind words and for playing! I'm so glad you jumped right in with your new stamps!

very nice job of CASEing. love the subtle changes. I too have a hard time deciding what to change and how when I find something I love so much just as it is.
