I don’t think I’ll ever have to worry about finding a cool card layout with all those wonderful sketch challenges everywhere. This card was made for the latest sketch challenge (STVSCJH02) on StampTV, a great site with lots of instructional rubberstamping videos.
I stamped the lamp image with black ink on white card stock and ran it through the Big Shot with a Labels Nine Nestie. Before I removed the die, I did all of my sponging with the help of a few regular Post-it notes and a mask I created by stamping the lamp on a Post-it note and cutting it out. The lamp itself was colored with Copic markers.
Now I’m waiting to hear from somebody with great news, because this card needs a recipient! Do you have some wonderful news to share perhaps?
Thanks for stopping by!

Vera, this is over-the-top fantastic! I’d say you aced the challenge. Your mojo has been working overtime. Love all the great creations you have been making with Gina K. stamps. Yeah for the Nesties — don’t you just love them?
