Hi everyone, I've not had a lot of time for crafting over the past week or so, but I really wanted to have a play with one of my new adorable LotV stamps from the latest release. I already have more darling LotV stamps than I know what to do with so I only bought a couple of the newest ones, but I just absolutely HAD to have this one!!
I deliberately chose this stamp and colour scheme to play with so as to tie in with some challenges; and I also attempted a different way of colouring, largely based on CASEing the wonderful colouring by Elise on her LotV DT card here.
Stamps: LotV "James - Laptop" and "Everyday Tags";
Media: Promarkers and Flexmarkers;
Papers: Forever Friends "Kraft Notes" (dots), LotV "Petal Fresh" (stripes) and LotV "Krafty Christmas" (kraft);
Supplies: twine from The Ribbon Girl; button and metal brads from my stash;
Tools: small, large and lacy circle nestabilities; Martha Stewart "Scallop Dot" edge punch.
Challenges:

Dream Valley #73- Boys / Men

Loving the combination of the blue and the Kraft card, your colouring of the teddy is superb, I love the way you have turned the tags into bunting I might have to give this a try especially on my scrap book pages as it would work so well for journalling cards. Thanks for sharing with us at Ooh La La creations.
