Love this stamp set. Well I'm in LOVE with so many of SU! stamp sets that it's often hard for me to chose.
And I'm not just saying that. That's one reason I went back to them.
There are a few rubber stamp companies out there that I absolutely love their illustrators. They always use people who do top notch work for them. And being an artist I love using other peoples work that I admire. SU! is one of the companies that I always felt drawn to.
This set is called Cherish Friendship
You wanna hear something funny? Sure you do! I ordered this set in french, accidentally. Amazing what numbers can look like when you don't wear your reading glasses, right? Hahaha. And I didn't even notice it until after I had already inked up the stamps. Silly me!
So I'm gonna order it again 'cause I really like that saying. I'll have to give away the french set here on my blog. So look for it.
I used colored pencil, white first and then added more colors, to color in the stamped image. I love Crumb Cake cardstock. It's great for this technique. Try your colored pencil out on a scrap piece of paper before you begin coloring in your stamped image. The colored paper you use will change the way the color of the pencil appears on your image.
I cut a strip of SU! new spring catty fabric, Tea For Two Designer Fabric. I then accordion folded it and pressed it with my nail. Attaching to the the card using Sticky Strip.
Other products used are Tea For Two Designer Series Paper, Natural Designer Buttons and Natural Trim Ribbon
C'est une tres bonne idee!
