Paper Pretties


Card details: A2 size card, Beate's sketch challenge
CS: Pretty in pink, white, kraft, and burgundy
DP: Sugared Basic Grey
Ink: Brilliance graphite black, basic brown, and creamy caramel

I received my Paper Pretties order last week, and these cute little stamps have been here waiting for me to start using them. Christie Ortman sure draws some adorable stamps of children. I just love their sweet little faces. So far, I have only inked up the cuddle me stamp, but I can't wait to use the other ones I received. Some of my SBS girlfriends have been telling how sweet these images are for a while, and I finally caved in and purchased four of my own. You can also join the stamp of the month club and just get one of Christie's creations a month. Right now she is offering 40% off your order of anything PINK for the month of October for Breast cancer awareness, so go check out her site. I am sure you will LOVE her stamps.

I just had to add one more photo to show you what I received in the mail today. Isn't this the cutest drawing of an alpaca you have ever seen?! This was a thank you card sent to me from Carolyn, the dear sweet lady whom I gave the one alpaca stationery set to. The drawing was by Diane BurrOws of Upstate NY http://www.artexcellentz.com/

First signature idea
