I am having the time of my life playing with the distress markers. I saw a card in a magazine that gave me the idea for this card. I am entering it into both Simon Says Monday challenge - we love stamps and Simon Says Wednesday challenge - have a heart. There are tiny hearts on the critters ears. And I think I will put it in the Simon Says Work out. I might be pushing it with all three but the distress markers are new and FUN!
On the 28th of January at the Simon Says Stamp blog, Shari Carroll made a card that intrigued me. So I bought a few Tim Holtz distress markers and started playing. After a few attempts and a bit of a learning curve I think I am on my way to mastering her technique. I was on such a high when making this that my 7 year old daughter was a bit worried and kept asking me if I was okay. So I squealed a bit in excitement. So? Anyway I am going to put it in the Simon Says Work it Wednesday and the Simon Says Monday challenge - We love stamps. I still have a lot to learn and I am totally hanging to splash out an and purchase a few more distress markers. But I will keep practicing and keep watching the Simon Says blog.
This is for the Simon Says Monday challenge and Simon Says Wednesday challenge. The Monday challenge is all about cowboys. I have spent the week thinking of this and all I can think of is the Little House on the Prarie and Love Comes Softly shows. So I did this tag with them in mind. A country girl with her chickens. Really hope it counts! And Wednesday challenge is to use string. I had to ink the string to make it a bit dirtier.
