Good morning! I've got a card for ya today, believe it or not. This sweet stamp set, Build-a-Roo just arrived on Friday and I had to get it inky right away! I've always thought it is cute and fairly versatile. This sketch is from the Pals Paper Arts (PPA61) challenge and the color combo is for the Color Throwdown (CTD111). For my circle element for the sketch I used a black jumbo grommet. I have TIP for using those babies: don't try to put the prongs through the paper, just bend them flat with an old eyelet hammer and attach it with glue dots. It doesn't wrinkle up the paper and is much easier to attach.
I colored the kangaroo with my blender pens and some River Rock ink then some touches of Soft Suede for some shading. Yes, I know, my coloring skills aren't up to par with the masters! If you have a Stamp-a-Majig this is a great set to use it for to get the accessories in the kangaroo's pouch! This set comes with not only the baby roo, but also flowers and hearts plus a few things to put in her hand and 3 different sentiments.
Have a great Sunday!
