Follow Your Art and Why I Keep Stamps FOREVER

I love the sketch today at CAS Colours and Sketches.  I varied it just a bit by altering the height of my pencils.

Here is the posted sketch:

The stamp set I used is retired but one that I will keep forever - there are just too many artists in my family and friends!  I know I'll always use it and that sentiment is one of my favorites.

I stamped the images in Stazon, colored with Watercolor Pencils and a blender pen and die cut them out.  Super simple.  The stitched background is also from a retired die.

I must be a hoarder because while I love getting the new things to play with, I can't part with the old.  On the other hand when my husband says at the last minute "I need a thank you card and my client loves coffee (or golf or cats)" it's easy for me to come up with a personalized card because I have so many stamps!
