ENJOY YOUR RETIREMENT

Recently I made this card for a Yahoo Group card swap and I had just purchased and received this cute Precious Moments stamp from a seller on eBay.  Most of the members of our group agree that it is sometimes difficult to come up with a card for the guys so when I saw this stamp I definitely wanted it.  It's a design that will work well for "congratulations on your retirement", "relax on your birthday", "take it easy as you recover".

I stamped the design using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then colored the image with Copic markers using the colored design on the stamp itself as a color guide.  The brown and turquoise card stock is from Stampin' Up.

Thank you for stopping by!  Your comments are always welcome............I love hearing from you.
