Abracadabra Stamp Maker Silly Reindeer
|
I bought this stamp long ago; I thought it was cute. When I tried coloring it, I could not get it right. A week ago, I visited Nora and asked her advice. She grabbed an image and one of her Copic Markers and, with a few strokes, came up with an image I liked. I stamped a bunch of images and copied Nora’s coloring as best as I could.
This is a CAS card. If I make it again, it is going to be very easy. However, it took me days of trial and error to come up with this card.
My original idea was to copy a layout I saw on Bonnie Klass’s blog.
