Stamp What?! ~ YUKON !

Hi friends!

It's the start of a brand new week

and I hope your Monday is off to a good start :)

This week is going to be JAM PACKED with cards for me ~

I've got lots of craftingl and lots of cardmaking to do ...

yay!

Today's card is courteousy of my teenage son ~ in 2 ways!

He chose the stamps and he created the idea of this monthly challenge. 

We call them my 'Old Dusties!'

 Back in January, we started chatting about stamps and card making.
He's a sweet and thoughtful boy

and probably one of my biggest cheerleaders ♥

We spoke out Stampin Up and how I next to never use them anymore.

He said "I have an idea!"

I'll pick a stamp set for you, you won't know what it is, 

and you have to make a card with it.

Deal?

Deal!

This month, he chose one of my VERY favorite sets: 

Yukon!

Last month, he chose another bear set (though it was camping!)

and I always ask how he choses the stamp that month.

Me:  I LOVE THIS ONE!  THANK YOU!  How'd you chose this?'

Him:  'When you called me,  I was playing PS4 with my friends

and you said you needed one - 

so I grabbed the one next to the one I chose last time.

And I love the outdoors."

LOL!

This set is from 2002 

and only ONE stamp in this set was ever inked up. 

This is definitely a KEEPSIES!

Here's my card, 

created by masking the moose and bear and mountains

and coloring with copic markers.

The sky is harder to see as I colored it a very light lavendar 

and I just loved creating this beautiful scene.

 I invited Barb and Jeanette to jump in with this challenge

and these two friends are always down to join

the crazy ideas I come up with!

What's new since 2002 with this Yukon set?

1. I used stitched dies, which we didn't have back then

2. I colored this entirely with copic markers, which I didn't own back then.

I encourage you to look through your old stash, too!

Dust them off, take them out and let them get inky!

Thanks for stopping by ...
Big hugs, bigger blessings!
