Smile :)

It's my turn today for the {Roc Nicholas} design team so I'd like to share this postcard I made using a few of Roc's new rubber stamps.
I started off with some white card and gave it a coat of black gesso. I then painted the central part white to enable me to keep the colours bright and pop off the black background. After painting and adding the circles through a stencil I stamped the images on white card and coloured using Prismacolour pencils and glued them in place. A white Posca pen and a little washi tape added finishing details and the text was stamped using one of my many random alphabet stamp sets.
The stamps I used are:
All of Roc's stamps can be found {here} at the Stampotique online store.
Wishing you a lovely day. Sam xxx

    I had a chuckle as soon as I read this quote, and with the bright colours of the crocodile, how could you not love him?

    Every post just brightens my day and how could I fail to smile Sam. This is quite pertinent right now as my husband is suffering with an abscess :(
