you're a hoot!

Hi!

So here I am with another project I shared yesterday at NB Hobby's Happy Hour...did I mention that Jane's Doodles stamps are being sold there! :)

So this cute owlie is from our you're a hoot! stamp set. I coloured him using Copics and Graphit markers (a new brand to me, I believe it's a French brand, alcohol ink markers...they are new at NB Hobby and I'm loving them!)

So it rained yesterday....great I thought to myself...I'm already nervous as it is (never did any kind of workshop like this before...infront of strangers....Croatian strangers that don't stamp...who couldn't care for stamping)...so I get there and there's a group of ladies waiting to see what I got to show......

that's me...did I mention I use my hands alot when I talk! :)

 

..so my hands are shaking...my Croatian sounding even worse than usual....I showed them some techniques I like to use when card making....paper piecing, colouring with markers and masking...

..as I stumbled through my presentation...oohhh's and ahhhh's were being heard....smiling faces....hmmmm I'm thinking Croatia will stamp after all....one step at a time....

 

So back to this card...I took the heart stamp and created my background, stamped the branch onto kraft paper, stamped and coloured some leaves...and voila...

I'll be back with another card and more pictures!
Have a great day!
