Hi there!!!

OK...I know it's been a bit since I brought you any
thing from my creative space, so I thought it 
was about time to share.

 

I am having so much playing with my new stamps
This particular card only uses one of those fabby stamps,
but this sentiment really makes a bold statement!
I love the graphic design-style it presents.
The DP from Little Yellow Bicycle has a great pattern
for this design as well.
This design idea that was inspired
by the February issue of the UK magazine 'Quick Cards'.

  
This issue is the current issue, but I wanted you
to see what the magazine looks like.
I subscribe to all of the UK stamping magazines for
a different viewpoint on creativity and I love them!

 I do love A Muse Studio!

Here is the set that contains that fun sentiment...



This past week over at The Play Date Cafe, we played with a
combo that contained the color gray and I just loved it!
I was truly inspired by that color and decided to have a go
with something completely different.


I apologize my photos aren't *brighter*.  A new camera
is definitely on my shopping list right now.
Anyway....

What do I love about these fabby inks?
They are pigment inks that are quick drying, sort of like
a chalk ink.  You can emboss them, but you don't have to.
They are silky smooth and very true to the color chart.
Saturated colors & a beautiful variety!


The inks I used today from A Muse Studio include:
Lemon Whip & Lichen from the Spring Collection
and
Slate from the Winter Collection

and included images from the following stamp sets...
