One of the new paper packs in the Spring CTMH catalog is called "You Rock". It's bold and vibrant, I didn't think I would like it at all, but, as usual, I'm growing to love it as I work with it! This stamp set is called "Springtime" - I just LOVE these little ducks! The umbrella has different patterns you can use - but I just stamped the outline over the patterned paper and made matching rain boots. The umbrella, the top boot, and the chick on the boot are all on pop-up dots. The "grass" was trimmed casually by hand. I forget who taught me (was it Vicki?) to distress with the scissors closed (much safer!) and it really works (thanks!).
I got my stitches out today! It was easy-peasy! The ones that had "grown in" were actually under the skin and will dissolve (silly me!) so I had been worried for nothing! I'm continuing to gain strength every day - thank God! Soon I can return to Yoga class . . .
Namaste.
