Hope you are all having a lovely weekend. We are off to enjoy the Santa Clause Parade in our area this morning. Ethan is very excited to see "The Big Guy" :)
Here is a card that I made this week to play along at Merry Monday and Seize The Sketch. I am also entering this card in the anything goes challenge at Addicted to Stamps & More.
I tried a new technique - Swipe Stamping. So rather than pressing the stamp down on the ink pad you swipe it across the pad to get a lighter smudged look. Kind of fun!
