Since my week has been kinda' crazy so far, I thought I would share with you today the other two cards that my customers made in stamp class last month. The class featured four cards using different resist techniques. This card used the Versamark Resist technique. The stamps were inked with Versamark and stamped on glossy cardstock. Then we simply brayered ink from a Kaleidacolor pad in Autumn Leaves over the flowers. This card measures 5" square.
This second card uses the technique called Emerging Color. (Tutorial can be found here.) This one was the most intimidating to my customers but once they got started the technique made more sense, and this card ended being a favorite. That cherry blossom branch stamp from Impression Obsession has become one of my most favorite stamps... I doubt I'll ever part with it!
Stay tuned until tomorrow for another great Stamp Simply challenge, and be prepared to join in the fun and winning as the Stamp Simply team helps Sharon celebrate her blog anniversary all week long!
Thanks for stopping by, and happy stamping!

Just a little update on the volleyball situation...we met with the coach and athletic director last evening. We don't feel that this accomplished anything, and unless something changes throughout this season I think it is safe to say that Kaylie's passion for volleyball is gone. Being left to sit and made to feel like she's more of a bother than a team member has greatly diminished her desire for the game, and her respect for the coach. I can't say that I blame her. You don't need to be bored with the details, but if you want to know more feel free to email me. I appreciate all of you who took time to write and show support! It helped us go into this meeting with our heads held high, and to leave the meeting with our heads held high. It never hurts to fight for what you believe in, and if you can't get someone to see it your way it's best not to lose sleep over it and move on. Thank you again!
