I was invited to share some mid-month inspiration for the August challenge, the theme of which is Stamps and Watercolour.
Actually there is a sketch for you too (see below), so if you'd like to join in, you may choose the theme, the sketch, or both! There are lots of options! See here for all the details.
I had the pleasure of stamping with the beautiful Vignette: Trendy Feathers.
These are my first stamps from STAMPlorations! Thank you, Shery! I love your stamps! They are photopolymer clear stamps - they stamped perfectly the first time, and I got a clean impression every time. I recommend checking out their store - they have so many awesome stamps and stencils - and I saw a coupon code for free shipping there too! Here is my Stamps and Watercolour Card:
There are lots of prizes to be won so head over and check out the STAMPlorations August challenge! Then get inky with your Stamps and Watercolour - or the sketch!

Hey, girlfriend! What? no kitty on this card? He's probably off somewhere having an after dinner wash up or nap, ate the bird and left you with these gorgeous feathers! Fantastic card. Love stamps that work perfectly the first time. Fab embossing, too!
This is awesome Kitty. So much beautiful work has gone into this.
Congrats on your GDT slot, it is so well deserved.
