For today's Technique Lover's challenge-stamping nostalgia. We were to revisit those old techniques before fancy things came out like dies, copic markers, sewing, yadda, yadda, yadda...
I decided to pull out my old SU watercolor pencils. I must say, my coloring is not nearly as pretty without my Prismas or Copics, but it is what I first used to color line images. I also remember that I LOVED my satin ribbon. I had it on every card I made. Now, I used twines.
Before dies, I relied on my stockpile of SU punches, which is what I used for the scallop border. Remember how popular that punch was? Now we have scallops in all shapes, sizes and patterns!!!
The DP is some old Colorbok paper that has sat on my shelves for years and years!
For the CAS167-we were to use a zoo animal on our card. Rhubarb fit that mold. Bears are my favorite, and I used to collect them.
TFL!

Ha! I thought I didn't have any zoo animals and the more I look the more of them I see (that I have). Who Doesn't have bears. And I think "old" is better, so I love this.
