Duty of Love

Still struggling to create the way I want without my own studio space (and my own papers) … but I'm pushing through and creating anyway … because making art that's not your favorite, is still better than making no art.  That's my sermon for today … go forth and create.

This card started with the Technique Junkies Duty of Love Stamp and since it sort of looked like a child's drawing, I used the side of my pencil lead and did some rough coloring of the puppies using an eraser to blend.  I'm linking-up at the Love Your Pet Challenge at Sweet Stampin' Challenges.

The layout is this week's Mojo Monday Sketch, so I had to figure out what to do for the two word boxes.I looked through my Technique Junkies stash to find my words … and I found them in part of the sentiment on the Old Friends Stamp.

I used my new My Sweet Petunia Cut-Align to cut out the words … and if you don't have it already, you're going to want us … so use my code TJ10Stephanie for 10% off.

I love how their are 1/6" grids on one side of the cutting line … and 1/8" on the other side … it allows for perfect precision like I needed to perform surgery on this sentiment.
