Use What you Have – Repetition Edition

Warning … this stamp contains lightly censored f-bombs.

I’m hoping this becomes a series … a little storytelling and card making all rolled into one. This card all started because I picked up the closest cling stamp in order to demonstrate how it works, and next minute … BAM … card! I had to make it again, because I pulled out some old school card making tricks, and really wanted to share them with you. Here’s a lovely photo, and further down you can watch a video of the process.

Here’s a list of what I used, and I’ll link where I can, but some items are long retired (because that’s what happens when you’ve been building your craft stash for decades!)

This is also your reminder that, although I have radically downsized the shop, I am still an authorised Australian Copic Stockist, with plenty of markers for sale.
