We have two awesome stamp sets to show you today. Up first is Melanie Muenchinger's newest set called Beyond Baskets...Oh what fun this one is to fill with things! Here is what I did for today:
Isn't that wheelbarrow awesome!? I colored to resemble old wood, or was trying too...with the hint of green mildew? LOL! And then I stuck some numbers in it, the age of my friend. I think she will get a kick out of this, with the 'over-the-hill' undertone to it, lol! I can kid her, because I've already surpassed that age, ha!
Up next is Theresa Momber's newest set called Joyful Holiday GORgeous images in this set to get you rolling on them Christmas cards! (only about 12 more weeks!) Here is what I did for today:
For this card, I did some gold embossing, and was going for a rustic kinda look. I think this card turned out like I wanted it too! I used some gold cardstock too on it, which added to the rustic rich colors of the card to me!
