What's Up


This is my card for the May Our Daily Bread Designs challenge. I picked up this stamp last week at St. Vincent DePaul for $2.70. It is a 1995 PSX stamp. My 5 elements are
1-brads
2-colored image with Copic markers
3-distressed the edges of the neutral piece and colored with chalk inks
4-embossed the green cardstock
5-used chalk ink on the green cardstock to simulate reptile skin



These 2 cards I used paper from the DCWV Safari stack.

That is great! You will get alot of use out of the stamp! The background paper is really something also :)

Awesome iguana. I think the reptile skin you made is fantastic! I need to find a thrift store as good as yours!
