The Antique Store

 I found this old stamp from Rubber Cottage (2005) hiding in the cobwebs and thought I'd have a play with it again. I colored it with Copics, colored pencils, and markers. I stenciled a little bit of blue skies with some Tumbled Glass ink and placed it on a chocolate cardstock background. I was stumped for adding a sentiment so I left it blank for the time being until I get ready to mail it. I used to have one of those old milk cans like the one sitting by the door and I loved it, but someone helped themselves to it unfortunately. Now they seem to be difficult to find in this day and age.

I'll share this with the FarmQuest General Store Challenge #4 which is A/G farm/country related.

Also adding to the We Love Stamping May Challenge - A/G stamped with the option of "in the garden."

adding also to the Retro Rubber Challenge #202 - A/G must use stamps older than 1 year.

Thanks for stopping by and I wish you a wonderful day! Happy stamping!

A Country Christmas

 While rummaging through my stash, I found a few unloved stamps I've had forever and decided it was time to give them some ink. This is a Rubber Cottage stamp (2004) that I colored with Copics and colored pencils. I colored the quilt design with red and green to turn this into a Christmas card. I added a pre-printed sentiment from SSS and used Lil Inker stitched rectangles to die-cut both the image and chocolate brown card base.

I'll share this with the following challenges:

Stamping Sensations April Challenge - Anything stamped with a CAS option

Farm Quest General Store #3 challenge - A/G Farm Country

MTTCC Challenge Theme #58 - Christmas Quote

Krafty Chicks Challenge #659 - Christmas

 Allsorts Challenge Week 724 - A/G *optional create your own background

Thanks always for stopping by and thanks also for these challenges that keep us adding to our card stash as well! Have a great day!
