You have to check out this stamp set....great grandfather clock, chair and more.
Blue card using some pattern paper cut into flag/banner, die cut chair with Nestabilities. Added a touch of color with my prisma pencils to finish it off.
Second card I did the blackboard technique...my new favorite technique and you are not seeing double. I overstamped for that chalk effect.
Enjoy the rest of the hop and don't forget to comment for a chance to win this or one of the other new releases.
