So, How Are You Waiting?
Hello! ¡Hola! I can't believe it's November already, so the holidays are just around the corner. With the holidays in mind, I decided to start working on my Christmas cards by designing and making a hand-carved stamp of St. Nicholas. I used a rubber carving block and carved my design with a Speedball linoleum carver. My card design was inspired by the Paper Players PP811 Colour Challenge from Joanne and Freshly Made Sketches #761 by Cécile. I used the Sizzix Tim Holtz Movers & Shapers Oval and Snowflakes dies, as well as the Vintage Labels Thinlits set. I am also submitting this to Paper Rocks Scissors November #22 Challenge, as I used Hobby Lobby Plaid Tidings paper. Most certainly not a holiday, but my birthday is coming up this week, so I made an Icad to remind me that "Youth Has No Age". I began by drawing a Chibi cartoon, and then added stickers from a ZABC Torn Poster sticker book, that I felt coordinated with the color scheme....
