Not long ago a good friend of mine moved back to the Seattle area after having spent a few years away in Alaska.  When she learned that I had taken up stamping, she told me of a friend of hers there who made her own stamps.  I thought that was so cool.  So of course I had to check them out!

This card was made for the Inspiration Challenge #163 over on Splitcoaststampers.  I was inspired by a PB Teen catalog picture found here.  The background was sponged.  I colored directly on to this beautiful Fireweed stamp with markers before stamping.  White highlights were added with a gel pen.

It’s always so fun to find a new line of stamps.  There are some really unique images and sentiments at Happy Stamping, too.  Thank you, Jill!
