Cool Cat!

This might be my new favorite stamp set.  Perhaps, it's because I'm always needing birthday cards for kiddos.  This set can be used for young and old, boy or girl.  And, since all boys love paper airplanes, that is all I have to stamp and suddenly it is cool for my 11-yr-old son.  Funny how that works.

Freshly Made Sketches #128 & Baby We've Grown

I never thought I would say it but I LOVE watercoloring!  I used to play around with the watercolor paper and inks but I was always disappointed with how it turned out.  In fact, it was so bad that I was pretty sure I could pass it off as my 3-yr old's work.  At our leadership conference in January, I finally learned how to watercolor and it is so much easier than I was making it.  Now, it is all I want to do.  Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of stamps that can be watercolored because I have always been drawn to the solid images.  The little bunny from Baby, We've Grown is my new favorite stamp.  I really need to order some line image stamps but until then, I will keep coloring this little guy.  He reminds me of the Velveteen Rabbit.  The sketch over on Freshly Made Sketches made me pull out the little rabbit again and I love how this card turned out.
