Hello everyone! Wow, I thought with Anne being gone at Disney this week, I'd have more stamping time but I really haven't. I'm just being a little lazy I guess, plus I have a lot to accomplish at work in the next couple of weeks, so I guess I'm more focused on that and not in the mood for stamping when I get home! LOL Last Friday night when I took the girls to the Indoor Amusement Park up in Cleveland, I took my Copics and some stamped images with me to color and keep myself "amused" while they rode all the rides. I colored this bicycle image and quickly made it into a card earlier this week, so I thought I'd share it with you today. The bicycle is a stamp that coordinates with the current Stamp of the Month program from Great Impressions, and I thought the "Journey" sentiment from Kitchen Sink Stamps' Vintage Words set was perfect for it.
Hope you're having a great week, and gearing up for Easter Sunday!
Stamps: bicycle (Great Impressions), sentiment (Vintage Words from Kitchen Sink Stamps)
Cardstock: Soft Sky, Purely Pomegranate (Stampin' Up!), white (Neenah), designer paper (Fancy Pants)
Inks: Memento Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko), Buckaroo Blue (Stampin' Up!), markers (Copic)
Accessories: Cuttlebug embossing border (ProvoCraft), ribbon, oval punch (Stampin' Up!), Threading Water border punch (Fiskars), brads (Colorbok).
Love this! What a sweet image :-)

Tammy, Your coloring is simply beautiful..the background is just gorgeous! Shoot, I've been trying to convince myself that the Copics aren't in the budget but that airbrushing is calling my name.
