tim holtz stamps

Hello Friends, How are you? Are you seeing signs of spring in your part of the world? It’s been cold here on the east coast but, I have high hopes for a lush spring soon. 
Time is traveling so fast these days that I can’t seem to stay ahead of that 8 ball. With that said I have a quick share for you today. It was nice to pull this Tim Holtz stamp from my collection of colored images and give it a home of some simple distressing and layers. 
I often use this banner from Simon Says Stamp. Love the size! For my card I wanted to extend the ends to reach off of my card. I die cut the banner twice, cut the ends and glued on top. The sentiment was printed from my computer. 

I used some clear Scrap Dots to pop up the fan. Love using unexpected colors on stamped images lately with pastel Copic markers. Thanks for your visit today. Soon I will be randomly picking the winners for this BasicGrey giveaway and this Hero Arts giveaway. Thanks again for your visit and have a great weekend. Hugs, Kathy

    Great card & colouring! I’ve always started every card from scratch. I’ve never thought of building up a stash of images ready to make a quick card. TFS 😉

    The glow around that fan looks terrific & I had to laugh over the banner’s words. Great fun.

    those colours look stunning on this card Kathy. I’d have never thought of using pink with yellow and blue.

    I love this stamp set. I love the sentiment you chose to go with it. I have a stamp that reads “You are a FAN-tastic friend”, so I will be using that often I think. Love the colors you used for the fan and shading. Just awesome.
