I just can't figure out what is happening in my stamping world. Suddenly I am choosing things that are completely surprising me...buying fabric, the Easter Blossoms Stamp Set, sewing...and I even fell in love with the Nature Walk stamp set. Driving down to Hartford for Regionals last weekend, I did my share of complaining about the stamp set the Stampin' Up! chose to use. Really not my style and it would just sit in my closet. Well...I've added a card to my class this afternoon that uses it, I did these tumbled tile coasters and stamped on some fabric. Who knew? This vintage look is really growing on me and I enjoy doing a few new techniques I've learned. I wish there were more time in my week to stamp and create, going to work everyday is a bit rough!

Stamp line art image in Black Stazon Ink...I used Nature Walk stamp set
Color in with Poppin' Pastels...I layered a number of colors on and blended with my fingers. I was looking for a pretty organic look.
