Attitude

Hello everyone,

Finally I am in my craft room again doing what I love. And I managed to ink up Skiddy. I had her for a while but only today did I have time to use her. I made a postcard.



I used a background I made a while ago by painting a piece of 12'x12' card stock and randomly stencilling it. I then cut it in 6 pieces and hey presto, 6 postcards.. So I added some more stamping using "Fax to Wolfgang", doodled around the edge and stamped "Skiddy" on the card too. I then stamped her on white card stock, coloured her with pencils (I used Faber Castell Polychromos, and I am still learning). I then cut her out and adhered her on some washi tape on top of her image on the card. That way it looks like you cut it out perfectly. 
The sentiment was made with my old typewriter and then doodled around. 

Thanks for stopping by today ! There will be a new post tomorrow for the new Stampotique Designers' Challenge.... so come back and have a look !
