Sorry I’m a Little Behind!

High Hopes Stamps, New Release, Sue, This & That, , , ,

Hi Everyone;

There are times when I am and seem to be behind in everything.  Sometime it’s something I’m working on for work.  Other times it’s something like housework, which is always behind.

Now if I didn’t want to play with this adorable Turtle Peak paired with the sentiment called Sorry I’m from High Hopes Stamps’ latest release “This & That”.  I probably wouldn’t be behind so much ….  maybe, maybe not…  These stamps are just so adorable and fun to play with.

After colouring the image with Copic Markers, I used only on the Square Outline Die to cut a plain square and mounted it on to beige cardstock.  Some Morning Dew (Nuvo Crystal Drops) was added to the flower centers, and the enamel dots finish off this very simple CAS card.

Supplies used:

  • Stamps:  Turtle Peak – SLF033, Sorry I’m – FLL030; both from High Hopes Stamps “This & That” Release
  • Ink:  Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black
