Once a month the SCS Dirty Dozen and Dirty Dozen Alumni get together and do a challenge. HereÂ’s the rules for this month:
Challenge Focus: Use one of the oldest stamp sets you own along with embellishments and supplies youÂ’ve had for what seems like forever.
Required Element: RAK - you must mail your card out as a RAK on 3/20 to any DD/DDA - could be a birthday, get well, thinking of you, invite to come play with us, congratulations or just totally random no particular reason RAK. You do not need to tell us who you mailed your card to. For all addresses see the SMAK the DD thread.
Restricted Element: No stamps, tools, or supplies purchased or obtained within the last 6 months. WeÂ’re on the honor system here girls, so use your judgement to keep within the spirit of the challenge.
Bonus Challenge: Use a technique or style you havenÂ’t used in a long time, but was a favorite at some point in your stamping past.
Beautiful! Wow, it's wonderful to see such amazing coloring with prismacolors, rather than copics! Love the look the linen gives and the knotted hemp with the tag!

What a beautiful card, someone will be very lucky to receive this. I love the image and coloring, the distressing, the bg is fabulous and that little tiny tag is so cute.

Jeanne, I know how much you love your Copic's but it is a thrill to see your gorgeous coloring with the prismacolor pencils again. This is a beautiful scene and the linen bg over the scene looks so much like you painted this on a canvas. I love the friend sentiment that you snuck off the Long-Time Friend stamp. What a sweet card.
